Answer:

Explanation:

Ans- A, causes sediments in aquifers that are emptied to compact and the ground above it to sink.

This is one of the major problems for California nowadays. Due to excessive groundwater pumping to satisfy the demand of huge population the aquifers are drying, hence compacting and for that the land above sinks.

Name the apparatus used to measure friction force? PLEASE HELP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

melisa1 [442]

There is no apparatus for it. It is either use something like ruler and table and rub together or rub our hands, and friction force will be showed.

17. A distance-time graph indicates that an object moves 120 meters in 5 seconds and then remains at rest for 5 seconds. What is

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

12 m/s

Explanation:

Speed is distance moved per unit time and expressed as

S=d/t

S is speed, d is distance and t is time.

When at rest for five minutes, distance moved is zero hence speed is 0/5=0 m/s

When having moved 120 m for 5 s then speed is

S=120/5=24 m/s

Average speed is the average of these two speeda

Average speed=(24+0)÷2=24/2=12 m/s

Therefore, average speed is 12 m/s

A solid cylinder with a mass of 2.46 kg and a radius of 0.049 m starts from rest at a height of 4.80 m and rolls down a 24.3 ◦ s

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

$v_{f}\approx 2.097\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

Let assume that the solid cylinder rolls down a frictionless incline. The translational speed can be found by using the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem:

$m_{cyl}\cdot g\cdot y_{o} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{cyl} \left( 1+ \frac{1}{R}\right)\cdot v_{f}^{2}$

$g\cdot y_{o} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot\left( 1+ \frac{1}{R}\right)\cdot v_{f}^{2}$

The translational speed is:

$v_{f} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot g\cdot y_{o}}{\left(1 + \frac{1}{R} \right)}}$

$v_{f} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (4.80\,m)}{\left(1 + \frac{1}{0.049\,m} \right)} }$

$v_{f}\approx 2.097\,\frac{m}{s}$

7. What causes waves to bend?

lesantik [10]

Answer:

Refraction

Explanation:

Refraction is the change in direction of waves that occurs when waves travel from one medium to another. Refraction is always accompanied by a wavelength and speed change. Diffraction is the bending of waves around obstacles and openings.
