Which sediment size would allow water to flow through at the fastest rate?

1 answer:

4 0

The sediment size that would allow water to flow through at the fastest rate are pebbles. Sediment is a naturally occurring material that is broken down by processes of weathering and erosion, and is consequently transported by the action of wind, or ice, and or by the force of gravity acting on the particles. Pebble is a clast of rock with a particle size of 2 to 64 millimeters based on the scale of sedimentology.

Find the frequency of a spring block system if it is doing 4 oscillation in 100s

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

.004 Hz

Explanation:

Frequeny is cycles per second. An oscillation is 1 cycle

F=cycles/sec

4/100

=0.004Hz (Hz- Hertz=1 cycle/sec)

A squirrel pulls a 8.7 kg bag of acorns along the ground with a constant force of 80 N. If the force of friction opposing this s

Annette [7]

Answer:

$a=5.51\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a bag of acorns, m = 8.5 kg

The force acting on the bag = 80 N

The force of friction = 32 N

We need to find the acceleration of the bag of acorns.

Net force acting on it is = 80 N - 32 N

= 48 N

Let a be the acceleration of the bag of acorns. So,

F = ma

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{48}{8.7}\\\\a=5.51\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the bag of acorns is $5.51\ m/s^2$ .

Anestetic [448]

The current in the circuit =5 A

Explanation:

Voltage = 60 V

resistance= 12 ohm

using ohm's law V=i R

60= i (12)

i=60/12

i=5 A

Thus the current flowing in the circuit = 5 A
