Answer: soil creep

The mass movement or mass wasting is a natural process by which the soil particles, boulders and slopes moves down the hill or mountain.

Soil creep is the slow downhill progression of rock and soil. It is characterized by the slow deformation of the materials on the slope due to exertion of prolonged pressure and stress. It forms characteristic patterns such as wrinkles, terraces on the hill slides.

A spring has a spring constant of 53N/m. How much elastic potential energy is stored in the spring in the spring when it is comp
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:11686.5 joules

Explanation:

elastic constant(k)=53N/m

extension(e)=21m

Elastic potential energy=(k x e^2)/2

Elastic potential energy=(53 x (21)^2)/2

Elastic potential energy=(53x21x21)/2

Elastic potential energy=23373/2

Elastic potential energy=11686.5

Elastic potential energy is 11686.5 joules

Twin A makes a one way trip at 0.6c to a star 12 light years away while twin B stays on Earth. Each twin sends the other a signa
hram777 [196]

Answer:

8 signals received by twin A during the trip.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 12 light year

Speed = 0.6 c

Time = 1 year

We need to calculate the time by A

Using formula of time

T=t\sqrt{\dfrac{1+\dfrac{v}{c}}{1-\dfrac{v}{c}}}

Put the value into the formula

T=1\sqrt{\dfrac{1+0.6}{1-0.6}}

T=2\ years

Similarly,

The expression for distance cover by A

D=d\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}

D=12\sqrt{1-(0.6)^2}

D=9.6\ ly

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{D}{v}

t=\dfrac{9.6}{0.6}

t=16\ years

We need to calculate the signals received by twin A

Using formula for number of signals

n=\dfrac{t}{T}

Put the value into the formula

n=\dfrac{16}{2}

n=8\ signals

Hence, 8 signals received by twin A during the trip.

The minimum frequency of light needed to eject electrons from a metal is called the threshold frequency, ????0 . Find the minimu
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Threshold frequency = 4.17 x 10¹⁴ Hz .

minimum energy required = hν where h is plank's constant and ν is frequency .

E = 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ x 4.17 x 10¹⁴

= 27.52 x 10⁻²⁰ J .

wavelength of radiation falling = 245 x 10⁻⁹ m

Energy of this radiation = hc / λ

c is velocity of light and  λ  is wavelength of radiation .

= 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸ / 245 x 10⁻⁹

= .08081 x 10⁻¹⁷ J

= 80.81 x 10⁻²⁰ J

kinetic energy of electrons ejected = energy of falling radiation - threshold energy

= 80.81 x 10⁻²⁰  - 27.52 x 10⁻²⁰

= 53.29 x 10⁻²⁰ J .
