False flooding rivers can be caused by weather and can also happen naturally over time.
Debora [2.8K]3 years ago

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Rivers are natural sources of water. Human is not responsible for its construction and management.

When flood comes in a river this process can not be maintained by human as they have no role in construction of it. Thus, the given statement is false.

a racing car undergoes a uniform acceleration of 4.00m/s2. if the net force causing the acceleration is 3.00 times 10^3 N, what
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer: 750Kg

Explanation:

Recall that force is the product of the mass M, of an object moving at a uniform acceleration.

i.e Force = Mass x Acceleration

In this case, Mass = ?

Force = 3.00 x 10^3 N = (3.00 x 1000N)

= 3000N

Uniform acceleration = 4.00m/s^2

Force = Mass x Acceleration

3000N = Mass x 4.00m/s^2

Mass = (3000N/4.00m/s^2)

Mass = 750Kg (The SI unit of mass is kilograms)

Thus, the mass of the car is 750Kg

What are the wavelength ranges for the following? (a) the AM radio band (540–1600 kHz) maximum wavelength m minimum wavelength m
Pie

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) AM radio band (540–1600 kHz)

frequency = 540 kHz = 540 x 10³ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 540 x 10³

= 555.55 m

frequency = 1600 kHz = 1600 x 10³ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 1600 x 10³

= 187.5  m

maximum wavelength  =   555.55 m

minimum wavelength =  187.5 m

b )

AM radio band (88 - 108 MHz)

frequency = 88 MHz = 88 x 10⁶ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 88 x 10⁶

= 3.41 m

frequency = 108 MHz = 108 x 10⁶ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 108 x 10⁶

= 2.78  m

maximum wavelength  =   3.41 m

minimum wavelength =  2.78 m

The water level in a tank is 20 m above the ground. a hose is connected to the bottom of the tank, and the nozzle at the end of
Damm [24]

Answer:

P_(pump) = 98,000 Pa

Explanation:

We are given;

h2 = 30m

h1 = 20m

Density; ρ = 1000 kg/m³

First of all, we know that the sum of the pressures in the tank and the pump is equal to that of the Nozzle,

Thus, it can be expressed as;

P_(tank)+ P_(pump) = P_(nozzle)

Now, the pressure would be given by;

P = ρgh

So,

ρgh_1 + P_(pump) = ρgh_2

Thus,

P_(pump) = ρg(h_2 - h_1)

Plugging in the relevant values to obtain;

P_(pump) = 1000•9.8(30 - 20)

P_(pump) = 98,000 Pa

A cylindrical rod of copper (E = 110 GPa, 16 × 106 psi) having a yield strength of 240 MPa (35,000 psi) is to be subjected to a
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

d= 7.32 mm

Explanation:

Given that

E= 110 GPa

σ = 240 MPa

P= 6640 N

L= 370 mm

ΔL = 0.53

Area A= πr²

We know that  elongation due to load given as

\Delta L=\dfrac{PL}{AE}

A=\dfrac{PL}{\Delta LE}

A=\dfrac{6640\times 370}{0.53\times 110\times 10^3}

A= 42.14 mm²

πr² = 42.14 mm²

r=3.66 mm

diameter ,d= 2r

d= 7.32 mm

Relationship between frequency, amplitude, wavelength and energy in a transverse wave.
liq [111]
In a transverse wave:
- Oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of energy travelling
- Frequency is the amount of complete waves passing a certain point in one second (measured in hertz, Hz)
- Wavelength is the distance from any point on one wave to the same point on the following wave
- The amplitude is the maximum displacement of the particles from their average position (and be measured from the horizontal mid-point of the wave to either the peak or trough)

There isn't always a defined relationship between these features. However, frequency × wavelength = velocity of the wave.
