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.

A bicycle is heading West. It goes 5000m in 500s what's its velocity
dybincka [34]
There are several information's of immense importance already given in the question. Based on the given information's the answer to the question can easily be determined.
Distance covered by the bicycle = 5000 meter
Time taken by the bicycle to reach the distance = 500 second.
Velocity of the bicycle = Distance / Time taken
                                   = 5000/500 meter/second
                                   = 50 meter/second
So the velocity of the bicycle is 50 meter per second. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. In future you can always use this procedure for solving similar problems.
