How does flowing water change the earths surface

1 answer:

3 0

Deposition occurs when gravity's downward pull on sediment is greater than the push of flowing water<span> or wind. Rivers and streams erode soil, rock, and sediment. Sediment is tiny grains of broken-down rock.</span>

LenKa [72]

Answer: 3.125 ft

Explanation:

If this dish has the form of a concave upward parabola and its vertex $p$ is at the origin, its corresponding equation is:

$x^{2}=4py$

Where:

$x$ is the radius, which can be found by dividing the diameter $d=10 ft$ by half. Hence $x=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{10 ft}{2}=5 ft$

$y=2 ft$ is the depth

$p$ is the vertex of the parabola, where its base is

Finding $p$ :

$p=\frac{x^{2}}{4y}$

$p=\frac{(5 ft)^{2}}{4(2 ft)}$

Finally:

$p=3.125 ft$ This is where the the receiver should be placed

goldfiish [28.3K]

The wavelengths of the following quantum particles from the largest to the smallest is (d) > (a) = (e) > (b) > (c)

De Broglie proposed that because light has both wave and particle properties, matter exhibits both wave and particle properties. This property has been explained as the dual behavior of matter.
From his observations, de Broglie derived the relationship between the wavelength and momentum of matter. This relationship is known as de Broglie's relationship.

De Broglie's relationship is given by $\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}$ .

This can be written as $\lambda=\frac{h}{p}$ .....(1) where λ is known as de Broglie wavelength and p is momentum , h = Plank’s constant .

As we know that mass of proton is greater than electron and photon .

(a)For photon , the momentum is given by $p=\frac{E}{c}$ ...(2) where c is the speed is the speed of light .

Putting E = 3eV in equation (2) , we get

$p=\frac{3\times 1.6\times10^-^1^9}{3\times 10^8} \\p=1.6\times10^-^2^7Js/m$

Putting this value of p in equation (1) , we get

$\lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}}{1.6\times10^{-27}}\\\lambda=4.13\times10^{-7}$

(b) As we know that kinetic energy is given by

$K.E=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\2K.E = mv^2\\2K.E\times m = m^2v^2\\2K.E\times m = (mv)^2\\2K.E\times m = p^2\\\\\sqrt{2K.E\times m }=p$ ...(3)

Where mass of electron is $9.1\times10^-^3^1 kg$ .

Putting K.E = 3eV in equation (3) , we get

$\sqrt{2K.E\times m }=p\\p=\sqrt{2\times3\times1.6\times10^{-19} \times 9.31\times10^{-31} }\\p=\sqrt{89.376\times10^{-50}} \\p=9.45\times10^{-25}Js/m$

Putting this value of p in equation (1) , we get

$\lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}}{9.45\times10^{-25}}\\\lambda=0.7005\times10^{-9}$

$\sqrt{2K.E\times m }=p\\p=\sqrt{2\times3\times1.6\times10^{-19} \times 1.67\times10^{-27} }\\p=\sqrt{16.032\times10^{-46}} \\p=4.003\times10^{-23}Js/m$

Putting this value of p in equation (1) , we get

$\lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}}{4.003\times10^{-23}}\\\lambda=1.65\times10^{-11}$

(d) Putting E = 0.3eV in equation (2) , we get

$p=\frac{0.3\times 1.6\times10^-^1^9}{3\times 10^8} \\p=1.6\times10^-^2^8Js/m$

Putting this value of p in equation (1) , we get

$\lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}}{1.6\times10^{-28}}\\\lambda=4.13\times10^{-6}$

(e) Putting $p=3eV/c$ in equation (1) , we get

$\lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}\\\times3\times10^8}{3\times1.6\times10^{-19}}\\\lambda=4.13\times10^{-7}$

On comparing the wavelength order should be (d) > (a) = (e) > (b) > (c) .

Blue light has a shorter wavelength than yellow light. Which color has the higher frequency. O Blue O Yellow O They have the sam

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Blue light has the higher frequency.

Explanation:

Remember that the relation between wavelength and frequency for any electromagnetic wave in the vacuum is

$f = \frac{c}{\lambda}$

where $c$ is the speed of light in the vacuum. As you can see, the relation between frequency and wavelength is inversely proportional. The higher is the wavelength, the lower is the frequency.

astra-53 [7]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

They need more oxygen to function, so gas exchange needs to decrease.
They need more oxygen to function, so gas exchange needs to increase.
They need more carbon dioxide to function, so gas exchange needs to increase.
They need more carbon dioxide to function, so gas exchange needs to decrease.

Answer:

They need more oxygen to function, so gas exchange needs to increase. Explanation:

In the given question, Kristen is doing physical exercise for a long time as she is running in half marathon.

As a result of continuous running her breathing rate has increased because the physical exercise requires energy in the form of ATP.

The formation of ATP in the body is the result of the cellular respiration which takes place in the mitochondria which require oxygen and oxygen in the body is inhaled only through the breathing. So, more production of the ATP requires more oxygen and therefore more breathing.

Thus, the selected option is correct.
