What's one indirect consequence of building seawalls?

Physics

weeeeeb [17]3 years ago

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.

If you swim with the current in a river, your speed is increased by the speed of the water; if you swim against the current, you
Blababa [14]

Answer:

11.23%

Explanation:

Lets take

Speed of man in still water =u= 1.73 m/s

Speed of flow of water = v=0.52 m/s

When swims in downward direction then speed of man = u + v

When swims in upward direction then speed of man = u - v

Lets time taken by man when he swims in downward direction is t_1 and when he swims in downward direction is t_2

Lets distance is d and it will be remain constant in both the case

d=(u+v)t_1

d=(u-v)t_2

(1.73+0.52)t_1=(1.73-0.52)t_2

t_2=1.85t_1

Time taken in still water

2 d= t x 1.73

t=1.15 x d sec

t_1=0.44d\ sec

t_2=0.82d\ sec

total time in current = 0.82 +0.44 d=1.26 d sec

So the percentage time

percentage\ time =\dfrac{1.28-1.15}{1.15}

 Percentage time =11.32%

So it will take 11.32% more time as compare to still current.
