What's one indirect consequence of building seawalls?

Answer:

Seawalls are made for coastal defense purposes

Explanation:

Seawalls are massive structures which are designed  to prevent coastal erosion and other damages due to wave action during huge storms such as hurricanes.

My family used to live near one. It are very satisfying to watch during rain storms, because you can hear the sound of the rain falling on top of it. I also loved watching the waves hit the sea wall then roll back down.

Hope this helps. ( Sorry I go a little carried off)

Seawalls, groins, jetties and other shoreline stabilization structures have had tremendous impacts on our nation's beaches. Shoreline structures are built to alter the effects of ocean waves, currents and sand movement. They are usually built to "protect" buildings that were built on a beach that is losing sand.

A ball rolls down a ramp for 15 seconds. If the initial velocity of the ball was 0.8m/s and the final velocity was 7m/s, what wa
iren [92.7K]
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (ending speed) - (starting speed)

                            =  (7.0 m/s)  -  (0.8 m/s)  =  6.2 m/s

Time for the change  =  15 seconds

Acceleration  =  (6.2 m/s) / (15 sec)

                      =   (6.2/15)  m/s²

                      =     0.413 m/s²

Answer:

a) V = 0.82m/s

b) Vmax = 0.985 m/s

Explanation:

By conservation of energy we know that:

Eo = Ef    \frac{m*V^{2}}{2}-\frac{K*Xmax^{2}}{2}=-Ff*Xmax

Solving for V we get:

V = 0.82 m/s

To find the maximum speed we will do the same to an intermediate point where the compression is X and the distance for the work donde by frictions is given by (Xmax - X) = (0.28m - X):

\frac{m*Vmax^{2}}{2}+\frac{K*X^{2}}{2}-\frac{K*Xmax^{2}}{2}=-Ff*(Xmax-X)

Then we have to solve for V, derive and equal zero in order to find position X. After solving the derivative we get:

X = 0.1m    Replacing this value into the equation for Vmax:

Vmax = 0.985m/s

Describe how Rutherford's experiments changed the accepted scientific model of the atom.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Rutherford's model of the atom (ESAAQ) Rutherford carried out some experiments which led to a change in ideas around the atom. His new model described the atom as a tiny, dense, positively charged core called a nucleus surrounded by lighter, negatively charged electrons.
