The answer from the given options is "A. Creep".

Alternate freezing and thawing often leads to "creep".

Creep refers to the low mass development of soil and soil material down slants, driven fundamentally by gravity yet facilitated by immersion with water and by substitute freezing and thawing. Generally not distinguishable with the exception of through expanded perception.

Choice A is correct.======Kinetic energy equation: KE = (1/2)(m)(v²)This tells us that KE is directly proportional to mass and the square of velocity. In other words, the more mass and more velocity an object has, the more kinetic energy.If an object is sitting at the top of a ramp, there is no velocity and therefore no kinetic energy. Choices B and D are wrong.A golf ball has more mass than a ping-pong ball, so a ping-pong ball would have less kinetic energy than a golf ball rolling off the end of a ramp. Choice C is wrong.Choice A is correct.

Inga [223]

From reliable sources in the internet, the half-live of carbon-14 is given to be 5,730 years. In a span of 10,000 to 12,000 years, there are almost or little more than 2 half-lives. Thus, there should be
A(t) = A(0)(1/2)^t
where t is the number of half-lives, in this case 2. Thus, only about 1/4 of the original amount will be left.

A horizontal wire of length 0.53 m. carrying a current of 7.5 A. is placed in a uniform external magnetic field. When the wire i

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

3.4 mT

Explanation:

L = 0.53 m

i = 7.5 A

Theta = 19 degree

F = 4.4 × 10^-3 N

Let B be the strength of magnetic field.

Force on a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field.

F = i × L × B × Sin theta

4.4 × 10^-3 = 7.5 × 0.53 × B × Sin 19

B = 3.4 × 10^-3 Tesla

B = 3.4 mT

Two boats start together and race across a 48-km-wide lake and back. Boat A goes across at 48 km/h and returns at 48 km/h. Boat

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Part 1)

Boat A will win the race

Part 2)

Boat A will win the race by 48 km as the 2nd boat will reach the other end while boat A will just touches the finish line

Part 3)

average velocity must be zero

Explanation:

As we know that the distance moved by the boat is given as

$d = 48 km$

now the time taken by the boat to move to and fro is given as

$t = \frac{d}{v}$

$t = \frac{48 + 48}{48}$

$t = 2 hrs$

Time taken by Boat B to cover the distance

$t = \frac{48}{24} + \frac{48}{72}$

$t = 2.66 h$

Part 1)

Boat A will win the race

Part 2)

Boat A will win the race by 48 km as the 2nd boat will reach the other end while boat A will just touches the finish line

Part 3)

Since the displacement of Boat A is zero

so average velocity must be zero

Travka [436]

Answer:

a. Potential energy decreases and Kinetic energy increases

Explanation:

Because as he comes down due to its steepness the speed of the boy or you can say his KE increases and since he comes from a high position (hill) to the lower ground his potential energy decreases simultaneously
