Answer:

Over time

Explanation:

When the waves crash against the rocks (erosion) small bits of rock begin to wear off. Over a lot of years lots of rock would've worn off.

Answer:

when there is high wind e.g hurricane it can cause soil erosion, when there is flood it can cause soil erosion, when there are waves it can wear out the land and cause soil erosion

The same ball is shot straight up a second time from the same gun, but this time the spring is compressed only half as far befor

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

The new height the ball will reach = (1/4) of the initial height it reached.

Explanation:

The energy stored in any spring material is given as (1/2)kx²

This energy is converted to potential energy, mgH, of the ball at its maximum height.

If the initial height reached is H

And the initial compression of the spring = x

So, mgH = (1/2)kx²

H = kx²/2mg

The new compression, x₁ = x/2

New energy of loaded spring = (1/2)kx₁²

And the new potential energy = mgH₁

mgH₁ = (1/2)kx₁²

But x₁ = x/2

mgH₁ = (1/2)k(x/2)² = kx²/8

H₁ = kx²/8mg = H/4 (provided all the other parameters stay constant)

A 1000 kg car moving a 10 m/s collides with a stationary 2000 kg truck. The two vehicles interlock as a result of the collision.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

v₃ = 3.33 [m/s]

Explanation:

This problem can be easily solved using the principle of linear momentum conservation. Which tells us that momentum is preserved before and after the collision.

In this way, we can propose the following equation in which everything that happens before the collision will be located to the left of the equal sign and on the right the moment after the collision.

$(m_{1}*v_{1})+(m_{2}*v_{2})=(m_{1}+m_{2})*v_{3}$
