Biogenous sediments are a kind of ocean sediments and ooze is one of the biogenic sediments which contains the remains of dead organism.

Explanation:

Ocean sediments are the insoluble materials like rocks or other solid particles which enter the ocean from the land area because of wind blow, floods, ice break and river water mixing etc.

Sediments do not have a definite shape and size. They may agglomerate at various temperatures and they are originate or coagulate at any locations of ocean.

The ocean sediments are classified in four types based on the basic composition of sediments.

They are lithogenous sediments which is composed of rocks or other solid land wastage, biogenous sediments which are composed of remains of dead organisms and their skeletons, hydrogenous sediments which are composed of the chemical wastage released in water from different factories and cosmogenous sediments which are composed of any waste entered in ocean from space like asteroid remains, rocket remains etc.

Among these, the ocean sediment which contains remains of dead organisms are termed as biogenous wastage.

The best example of biogenic sediments composed of dead organism remains are termed as ooze which is composed of 30% biogenic remains of plankton and its skeleton.

A block, M1=10kg, slides down a smooth, curved incline of height 5m. It collides elastically with another block, M2=5kg, which i
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

2.86 m

Explanation:

Given:

M₁ = 10 kg

M₂ = 5 kg

\mu_k = 0.5

height, h = 5 m

distance traveled, s = 2 m

spring constant, k = 250 N/m

now,

the initial velocity of the first block as it approaches the second block

u₁ = √(2 × g × h)

or

u₁ = √(2 × 9.8 × 5)

or

u₁ = 9.89 m/s

let the velocity of second ball be v₂

now from the conservation of momentum, we have

M₁ × u₁ = M₂ × v₂

on substituting the values, we get

10 × 9.89 = 5 × v₂

or

v₂ = 19.79 m/s

now,

let the velocity of mass 2 when it reaches the spring be v₃

from the work energy theorem,  we have

Work done by the friction force = change in kinetic energy of the mass 2

or

0.5\times5\times9.8\times2 = \frac{1}{2}\times5\times( v_3^2-19.79^2)

or

v₃ = 20.27 m/s

now, let the spring is compressed by the distance 'x'

therefore, from the conservation of energy

we have

Energy of the spring =  Kinetic energy of the mass 2

or

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_3^2

on substituting the values, we get

\frac{1}{2}\times250\times x^2=\frac{1}{2}\times5\times20.27^2

or

x = 2.86 m

An iron bar has more mass than a plastic bar of the same volume. so the iron bar will have greater inertia.
Irina-Kira [14]

The response is False, both bars, iron bars and plastic bars have de same inertia, this characteristic does not depend on the type of material, the inertia depends on his transverse section, since we can estimate in the following formula

<span>Area moment of inertia Ixx = BH3/12</span>

<span>Area moment of inertia Iyy= HB3/12</span>
