Glacial striations are scratches or gouges cut into bedrock by glacial abrasion. These scratches and gouges were first recognized as the result of a moving glacier in the late 18th century when Swiss alpinists first associated them with moving glaciers. They also noted that if they were visible today that the glaciers must also be receding.[1]

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

If the ship speed is doubled, then the power developed is 8 times the initial value.

Explanation:

ship power is roughly proportional to the cube of the speed, so

P ∝ v³

If the speed is doubled, then the power developed becomes

P ∝ (2)³ = 8 times

Therefore, if the ship speed is doubled, then the power developed is 8 times the initial value.

PLEASE HELP

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

h = 1.8 m

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the glove, u =- 6 m/s

We need to find the maximum height of the glove. Let it is equal to h. Using equation of kinematics. At the maximum height v = 0

$v^2-u^2=2ah$ , h is the maximum height and a = -g

$0^2-(6)^2=2\times (-10)\times h\\\\h=\dfrac{36}{20}\\\\h=1.8\ m$

Hence, it will go up to a height of 1.8 m.

Answer:

Here ball and rod will repel each other as they are of similar charges

Explanation:

As we know that the two charges attract or repel each other by electrostatic force

This force is given as

$F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

so we know if two charges are similar in nature then they will repel each other and if the two charges are opposite in nature then they will attract each other

So here when rod touch the ball then it transfer its charge to the ball and due to similar charges in ball and rod they both repel each other

Why is the contribution of the wavelets lying on the back of secondary wave front zero?

Tresset [83]

Answer:

The contribution of the wavelets lying on the back of the wave front is zero because of something known as the Obliquity Factor. It is assumed that the amplitude of the secondary wavelets is not independent of the direction of propagation, Sources: byju's.com
