Longshore drift has a very powerful influence on the shape and composition of the coastline. It changes the slopes of beaches and creates long, narrow shoals of land called spits, that extend out from shore. Longshore drift may also create or destroy entire “barrier islands” along a shoreline.
♥ If the wind is strong enough it can do so.
♥ By having a strong enough wind you can blow out the fire before the flame can consume any more vapor.
♥ If the wind is fast enough, like a birthday cake candle for example, the wind will burn out.
So,
GPE (graviational potential energy) = mass x g x height
GPE is depends on where zero height is defined. In this situation, we define h = 0 as the initial height.
The builder has gained 18.375 kJ of PE.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of sledge hammer;
Mh =2.26 kg
Hammer speed;
Vh = 64.4 m/s
The expression fot the kinetic energy of the hammer is,
K.E(hammer) = ½Mh•Vh²
K.E(hammer) = ½ × 2.26 × 64.4²
K.E ( hammer) = 4686.52 J
If one forth of the kinetic energy is converted into internal energy, then
ΔU = ¼ × K.E(hammer)
∆U = ¼ × 4686.52
∆U = 1171.63 J
Thus, the increase in total internal energy will be 1171.63 J.
Answer:
The acceleration is -9.8 m/s²
Explanation:
Hi there!!
When you throw a ball upward, there is a downward acceleration that makes the ball return to your hand. This acceleration is produced by gravity.
The average acceleration is calculated as the variation of the speed over time. In this case, we know the time and the initial and final speed. Then:
acceleration = final speed - initial speed/ elapsed time
acceleration = -4.3 m/s - 4.3 m/s / 0.88 s
acceleration = -9.8 m/s²
