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.

The stoplights on a street are designed to keep traﬃc moving at 26 mi/h. the average length of a street block between traﬃc ligh

bonufazy [111]

We use the formula,

$v = \frac{d}{t}$ .

Here, v is velocity and its value given 26 mi/h ( in m/s, $\frac{26 \times 1.609 \times 10^{3} m}{60 \times 60 s} =11.62 \ m/s$ ) and d is distance and its value is given 80 m.

Substituting these values in above formula we get,

$t = \frac{80 m}{11.62m/s } = 6.88 \ s$

Thus, the time delay between green lights on successive blocks to keep the traﬃc moving continuously is 6.88 s

Answer:

Explanation:distance-time =speed

a,V =s/t

V=2m/2s

V=1m/s

b,v=s/t

V=80m/40s

V= 2m/s

The average speed is 2m/s

What is the eulerian description of fluid motion how does it differ from the lagrangian description?

Alex_Xolod [135]

Kinematics : Study of motion

Fluid kinematics : study of how fluid flows and how to describe its motion.

There are two ways to describe fluid motion

one is Eulerian, where the variations are described at all fixed stations as a function of time.

the other is Lagrangian, in which one follows all fluid particles and describes the variations around each fluid particle along its trajectory.

<u>DIFFRENCE BETWEEN LAGRANGIAN AND EULERIAN:</u>

1.Both Lagrangian and Eulerian describes time variation.

2. Eulerian describes the rate of change in one point of space

Lagrangian descries rate of change of a property of material system.
