The answer is:

Transverse dune

The explanation:

Transverse dune : is abundant barchan dunes It  may merge into barchanoid ridges, which then grade into linear .

The transverse dunes is called that because they lie transverse, or across, the wind direction, with the wind blowing perpendicular to the ridge crest.

It is large, very asymmetrical, elongated dune lying at right angles 90° to the prevailing wind direction.

Transverse dunes have a gently sloping windward side and a steeply sloping leeward side.

They general form in areas of sparse vegetation and abundant sand are transverse dunes.

Elena makes a table to organize the functions of electric motor components.
Naddik [55]

Answer:

C. X: Allows current to flow into the commutator

Y: Conducts current to the armature and reverses direction of current

Explanation:

Carbon brush is a motor brush that acts as the conducting block  for current between the stator and the rotor of a motor.It is made of carbon blocks.The brush is held in place using a spring that ensures its contact position with the commutator.The commutator prevents the torque on the motor from reversing whenever the coil is rotating in the magnetic field.

What is the speed over the ground of a mosquito flying 2 m/s relative to the air against a 2 m/s headwind?
salantis [7]

We have that the speed over the ground of a mosquito flying 2 m/s relative to the air against a 2 m/s headwind is

X=0m/s

From the question we are told that

mosquito flying 2 m/s

against a 2 m/s headwind

Generally

The speed over the ground is the Flight Speed minus resistance speed

Generally the equation for the  speed over the ground  is mathematically given as

X=Flight Speed-resistance speed

Therefore

X=2-2

X=0m/s
