Where coastal rock is softer, waves erode the land faster ​

Physics
1 answer:
prohojiy [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Headlands and bays are created where there are bands of hard and soft rock which meet the coastline at right angles. Softer rock is eroded more quickly and erodes backwards to form bays (which may have beaches). The harder rocks are more resistant to erosion and jut out into the sea to form exposed headlands

What kind of energy does a rubber band have when it is stretched?
RideAnS [48]
Elastic potential energy. When you stretch a rubber band it has the "potential" to do work, to fly in a given direction. In doing so it changes it's elastic potential energy to kinetic energy.

Ultraviolet light of wavelength 270 nm strikes a metal whose work function is 2.3 eV.What is the shortest de Broglie wavelength
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The shortest de Broglie wavelength for the electrons that are produced as photoelectrons is 0.81 nm

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength of ultraviolet light, λ = 270 nm

work function of the metal, φ = 2.3 eV = 2.3 x 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = 3.685 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

The energy of the ultraviolet light is given by;

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\\E = \frac{(6.626*10^{-34} )(3*10^{8}) }{270*10^{-9} }\\\\E = 7.362 * 10^{-19} \ J

The energy of the incident light is related to kinetic energy of the electron and work function of the metal by the following equation;

E = φ  + K.E

K.E = E - φ

K.E = (7.362 x 10⁻¹⁹ J) - (3.685 x 10⁻¹⁹ J )

K.E = 3.677 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

mv² = 2K.E

velocity of the electron is given by;

V = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m} }\\\\V =  \sqrt{\frac{2(3.677*10^{-19}) }{9.1*10^{-31} } }\\\\V = 8.99*10^{5}  \ m/s

the shortest de Broglie wavelength for the electrons is given by;

\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}\\ \\\lambda = \frac{6.626*10^{-34} }{(9.1*10^{-31})( 8.99*10^{5} )}\\\\\lambda = 8.10*10^{-10} \ m\\\\\lambda = 0.81 \ nm

Therefore, the shortest de Broglie wavelength for the electrons that are produced as photoelectrons is 0.81 nm

Raising 100 grams of water from 40 to 60 °C (the specific heat capacity of water is 1
ANTONII [103]
C. 2000 calories.

Explanation/calculation:

Specific heat capacity = calories / mass * (final temperature - initial temperature)

1 = calories / 100 * (60 - 40)
1 = calories / 100 * 20
1 * (100 * 20) = calories
1 * 2000 = calories
2000 = calories

When measuring accelerations with three different graphs (x-t, v-t, a-t) which gives the most reliable results and why?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

the best graph to find the acceleration is v-t since calculating the slope averages the different experimental errors.

Explanation:

The different graphics depending on time give various information, let's examine what we can get from some

Graph of x -t. from this graph we can obtain the speed through the slope, but the acceleration is not directly obtainable

v-t chart. We can get the acceleration not through the slope and the distance traveled by the area under the curve. Obtaining acceleration is very accurate since it is an average that avoids possible errors in measurements. This is the best graph to find the acceleration

Graph of a-t In this graph the acceleration is a point on the Y axis, it gives some errors because it depends strongly on the possible experimental errors.

In conclusion, the best graph to find the acceleration is v-t since calculating the slope averages the different experimental errors.
