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.

sattari [20]

Answer: a

Explanation: The color of a star is linked to its surface temperature. The hotter the star, the shorter the wavelength of light it will emit. The hottest ones are blue or blue-white, which are shorter wavelengths of light. Cooler ones are red or red-brown, which are longer wavelengths.

Answer:

Polarization occurs when an electric field distorts the negative cloud of electrons around positive atomic nuclei in a direction opposite the field. Polarization P in its quantitative meaning is the amount of dipole moment p per unit volume V of a polarized material, P = p/V.

Consider the points below. P(1, 0, 1), Q(−2, 1, 4), R(6, 2, 7) (a) Find a nonzero vector orthogonal to the plane through the poi
kozerog [31]

Answer:

a) (0, -33, 12)

b) area of the triangle : 17.55 units of area

Explanation:

<h2>a) </h2>

We know that the cross product of linearly independent vectors \vec{A} and \vec{B} gives us a nonzero, orthogonal to both, vector. So, if we can find two linearly independent vectors on the plane through the points P, Q, and R, we can use the cross product to obtain the answer to point a.

Luckily for us, we know that vectors \vec{A} = \vec{P}-\vec{Q} and \vec{B} = \vec{R} - \vec{Q} are living in the plane through the points P, Q, and R, and are linearly independent.

We know that they are linearly independent, cause to have one, and only one, plane through points P Q and R, this points must be linearly independent (as the dimension of a plane subspace is 3).

If they weren't linearly independent, we will obtain vector zero as the result of the cross product.

So, for our problem:

\vec{A} = \vec{P} - \vec{Q} \\\\\vec{A} = (1,0,1) - (-2,1,4)\\\\\vec{A} = (1 +2,0-1,1-4)\\\\\vec{A} = (3,-1,-3)

\vec{B} = \vec{R} - \vec{Q} \\\\\vec{B} = (6,2,7) - (-2,1,4)\\\\\vec{B} = (6 +2,2-1,7-4)\\\\\vec{B} = (8,1,3)

\vec{A} \times  \vec{B} = (A_y B_z - B_y A_z) \  \hat{i} - ( A_x B_z-B_xA_z) \ \hat{j} + (A_x B_y - B_x A_y ) \ \hat{k}

\vec{A} \times  \vec{B} = ( (-1) * 3 - 1 * (-3) ) \  \hat{i} - ( 3 * 3 - 8 * (-3)) \ \hat{j} + (3 * 1 - 8 * (-1) ) \ \hat{k}

\vec{A} \times  \vec{B} = ( - 3 + 3 ) \  \hat{i} - ( 9 + 24 ) \ \hat{j} + (3 + 8 ) \ \hat{k}

\vec{A} \times  \vec{B} = 0 \  \hat{i} - 33 \ \hat{j} + 12 \ \hat{k}

\vec{A} \times  \vec{B} =(0, -33, 12)

<h2>B)</h2>

We know that \vec{A} and \vec{B} are two sides of the triangle, and we also know that we can use the magnitude of the cross product to find the area of the triangle:

|\vec{A} \times  \vec{B} | = 2 * area_{triangle}

so:

\sqrt{(-33)^2 + (12)^2} = 2 * area_{triangle}

\sqrt{1233} = 2 * area_{triangle}

35.114= 2 * area_{triangle}

17.55 \ units \  of \ area =  area_{triangle}
