The correct option is A.

Sediments refers to those particles that are found inside water bodies such as rivers, streams, etc. The ability of the water bodies to carry these particles when flowing depend on the rate of flow of the river. A fast flowing river has high velocity and this will enable it to carry with it most of the particles that are found in it. For instance, a fast flowing river will conveniently carry sand size sediments wit its flow because of its high velocity.

The correct answer is option a, that is, it would lift them and carry them downstream.  

The sediments refer to the particles, which are found within the water bodies like streams and rivers. The tendency of the water sources to carry the sediments relies on the rate at which it is flowing. For example, a fast flowing river, that is, flowing with a greater velocity will possess the tendency to lift the majority of the sediments and carry them downstream with it.

g A spontaneous process is one in which: A. releases a large amount of heat B. may happen (is possible) C. will rapidly approach
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

A. releases a large amount of heat

Explanation:

A reaction is said to be spontaneous if it can proceed on its own without the addition of external energy. A spontaneous reaction is not determined by the length of time, because some spontaneous reactions are completed after a long period of time. They are exothermic in nature. An example is the conversion of graphite to carbon which takes a long period of time to complete. Spontaneous reactions are known to increase entropy in a system. Entropy is the rate of disorder in a system.

In the combustion of fire, energy is released to the surroundings as there is a decrease in energy. This is an example of a spontaneous reaction because it is an exothermic reaction, which causes an increase in entropy and a decrease in energy.

lorasvet [3.4K]

The full question is shown in the image attached

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In naming an alkane, the first thing we do is to obtain the parent chain by counting the number of carbon atoms in the chain.

When we obtain that, then we identify the substituents and number them in such a way that they have the lowest numbers. The compounds shown have the following names according to the order in which the structures appear in the image attached;

1. 2-methyl propane

2. 2,4-dimethyl heptane

3. 2,2,3,3-tetramethyl butane

4. 5-ethyl-2,4-dimethyl octane

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

–0.16 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (t) = 0.18 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = –9.81 m/s²

Height (h) =?

We can obtain how far the ruler will fall by using the following equation:

H = ½gt²

H = ½ × –9.81 × 0.18²

H = ½ × –9.81 × 0.0324

H = –0.16 m

Thus, the ruler will fall –0.16 m before you will catch it.
