Answer:

Flood Plain

Explanation:

The amount of water that circulates through a river, the flow, varies in time and space. These variations define the hydrological regime of a river. Temporary variations occur during or just after episodes of rains or thaws. Much of the water that falls in the catchment basin circulates underground, or feeds underground aquifers and takes much longer to feed the river flow and can reach it days, weeks or months after the rain generated by the runoff. The runoff that goes to the river is what increases its flow. In extreme cases, flooding can occur when the water supply is greater than the river's ability to evacuate it, overflowing and covering nearby flat areas or floodplain. In this distribution between the runoff water (or stream) that goes directly to the channel and water that infiltrates, feeds the aquifers and maintains the flow in the river in times without precipitation depends largely on the geomorphological integrity of the entire river system .

In natural dynamics, the river systems have their own space that has been modeled by the floodwaters and is made up of the channel, the banks and the plain or flood plain. Its dimensions have been defined by the main flood events that this river has attended. Floodplains are wide and flat areas built by the river in its floodwaters. They are flooded frequently and are covered by sediments and nutrients that fertilize the soil act as natural reservoirs, reducing the speed of the downstream current. They store floodwater and rainfall in aquifers (underground area).

This is the Doppler effect.

1. As the sound leaves the horn the sound waves are at first close to each other and as they move outwards they become further apart. The closer the sound waves are the louder the noise.

As the car gets the closer the sound waves get closer, so the horn becomes louder.

2. As the horn moves away, the sound waves become less frequent, causing the pitch to get lower.

Three identical 6.0-kg cubes are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface in contact with one another. The cubes are lined up
Westkost [7]

Answer:

24 N

Explanation:

m = mass of the cube = 6.0 kg

Consider the three cubes together as one.

M = mass of the three cubes together = 3 m = 3 (6.0) = 18 kg

a = acceleration of the combination = 2 ms⁻²

F = Force applied on the combination

Using Newton's second law

F = ma = (18) (2) = 36 N

F_{L} = Force by the left cube on the middle cube

Consider the forces acting on left cube, from the force diagram, we have

F - F_{L} = ma \\36 - F_{L} = (6) (2)\\F_{L} = 24 N
