Answer:

Sand dunes

Explanation:

Dunes are hills of sand which are formed by the action of winds which is an agent of weathering. Sand dunes usually formed along the beach or in a desert. Sand dunes form when the wind blows, they carry particles of sand before they drop to the ground. As they roll and bounce on the ground, sand particles create small, wave-shaped ripples of sand. These ripples can build up into larger structures.

Dunes can grow very high say up to 4000 feet and be many miles long. Dunes can be various shapes such as crescents, stars, or just repeated lines.

A spring has an unstretched length of

koban [17]

Answer:

24 N

Explanation:

Given,

Unstretched length or original length , x1 = 12cm

Stiffness constant, k = 8 N/cm

Load required to take spring to a length , x2 of 15cm

Recall the relation :

F = Ke

Where, e = extension

e = x2 - x1

e = (15 - 12) = 3

F = ke

F = 8 N/cm * 3cm

F = 24 N/cm*cm

F = 24 N

Hence, required load = 24 N

Two stones are thrown vertically upward from the ground, one with three times the initial speed of the other. Assume free fall.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

36s

Explanation:

Let the objects be A and B.

Let the initial velocity of A be U and the initial velocity of B be 3U

The height sustain by A will be;

The final velocity would be zero

V2 = U2-2gH

Hence

0^2= U2 -2gH

H = U^2/2g

Similarly for object B, the height sustain is;

V2 = (3U)^2-2gH

Hence

0^2= 3U^2 -2gH

U2-2gH

Hence

0^2= U2 -2gH

H = 3U^2/2g

By comparism. The object with higher velocity sustains more height and so should fall longer than object A.

Now object A would take;

From V=U+gt as the object falls freely, the initial velocity is zero hence and the final velocity of the object is;

V=10×12=120m/s let g be 10m/S2

Similarly for object B,

The final velocity for B when it's falling it should be 3×that of A

Meaning

3V= gt

t =3V/g = 3× 120/10 = 36s

A spring has a natural length of 0.5 m and was stretched by 0.02 m. if the spring had a resultant energy of 0.5 j what is the sp

Anna71 [15]

$\textbf{2500 }\dfrac{\textbf{kg}}{\textbf{s}^{\textbf{2}}}$

Explanation:

Natural length of a spring is $0.5\text{ }m$ . The spring is streched by $0.02\text{ }m$ . The resultant energy of the spring is $0.5\text{ }J$ .

The potential energy of an ideal spring with spring constant $k$ and elongation $x$ is given by $\dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}$ .

So, in the current problem, the natural length of the spring is not required to find the spring constant $k$ .

$\text{Potential Energy in the spring = }\dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}\\0.5\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1}{2}k(0.02\text{ }m)^{2}\\k\times0.0004\text{ }m^{2}\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }kg\frac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}\\k\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1\text{ }kg\dfrac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}}{0.0004\text{ }m^{2}}\text{ }=\text{ }2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}$
