Hey there!

Your answer: Spilling breaker

Spilling breaker usually occurs when a beach or ocean is flat, and as the waves of the wind continues to happen, slowly the region would eventually become a slope.

It's almost like play-dough. Let's say that we set a perfect flat surface of play-dough on the table. As we continue slide our hands one direction, doesn't the play dough have more on one side than the other? It eventually contains a slope if you add enough from the first place.

Point charges q1 = 14 µC and q2 = −60 µC are fixed at r1 = (5.0î − 4.0ĵ) m and r2 = (9.0î + 7.5ĵ) m. What is the force (in N) of

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The force on q₁ due to q₂ is (0.00973i + 0.02798j) N

Explanation:

F₂₁ = $\frac{K|q_1|q_2|}{r^2}.\frac{r_2_1}{|r_2_1|}$

Where;

F₂₁ is the vector force on q₁ due to q₂

K is the coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

r₂₁ is the unit vector

|r₂₁| is the magnitude of the unit vector

|q₁| is the absolute charge on point charge one

|q₂| is the absolute charge on point charge two

r₂₁ = [(9-5)i +(7.4-(-4))j] = (4i + 11.5j)

|r₂₁| = $\sqrt{(4^2)+(11.5^2)} = \sqrt{148.25}$

(|r₂₁|)² = 148.25

$F_2_1=\frac{K|q_1|q_2|}{r^2}.\frac{r_2_1}{|r_2_1|} = \frac{8.99X10^9(14X10^{-6})(60X10^{-6})}{148.25}.\frac{(4i + 11.5j)}{\sqrt{148.25} }$

= 0.050938(0.19107i + 0.54933j) N

= (0.00973i + 0.02798j) N

Therefore, the force on q₁ due to q₂ is (0.00973i + 0.02798j) N

A white dwarf is:______.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

the exposed core of a dead star, supported by electron degeneracy pressure.

Explanation:

A white dwarf is a low luminosity exposed core of a dead star having mass comparable to the sun but volume comparable to the earth . So its density is very high . These stars have lost the capacity to generate energy through the process of fusion . Due to high gravitational energy , it goes on shrinking but ultimately balanced by electron degeneracy pressure. It is not a main sequence star as it has lost the power of fusion .

An electron is ejected from the cathode by a photon with an energy slightly greater than the work function of the cathode. How w

Ksivusya [100]

It will be approximately equal.

<h3>How will the final kinetic energy change?</h3>

We can infer that all of the energy in the electron is Potential energy (PE) because the energy provided by the photon is hardly enough to outweigh the work function.

It will gain kinetic energy (KE) as it advances in the direction of the anode because it is moving through an electric field. All of the PE will have been transformed to KE by the time it reaches the anode.

According to the question

K = hf - W

W = Work function

The energy of photons is comparable. After conversion, there was only a little amount of KE remaining.

Therefore, PE (W) essentially equals KE (K).

It will about be equal.

Water enters a cylindrical tank through two pipes at rates of 250 and 100 gal/min. If the level of the water in the tank remains

tester [92]

Answer:

The total amount of water that enters the tank is:

250 gal/min + 100 gal/min = 350gal/min.

Then, if the level of the water remains constant, this means that the water leaves the tank at a rate of 350gal/min.

We know that the diameter of the pipe is 8 inches, then the area of the pipe is:

A = pi*(d/2)^2 = 3.14*(4in)^2 = 50.24in^2

now, the flow can be calculated as:

Q = v*A = (velocity*area)

if we want to write our velocity in inches per minute, then we need to write the entering flow in cubic inches:

1 gallon = 231 in^3

then:

350gal/min = (350*231) in^3/min = 80,850 in^3/min.

Then the water that leaves the tank must be the same amoun, we have:

Q = 80,850 in^3/min. = v*A = v*50.24in^2

v = (80,850in^3/min)/50.24in^2 = 1609.3 in/min.

The velocity of the flow leaving the tank is 1609.3 in/min.
