Streams carry sediment, like pebbles, in their flows. The pebbles can be in a variety of locations in the flow, depending on it's size, the balance between the upwards velocity on the pebble (drag and lift forces), and it's settling velocity.

DENIUS [597]

Whenever an increasing temperature leads to a quicker movement of elementary particles and a collision, Thermal energy occurs. The hypothesis as per the given statement is provided below.

  • Whenever the overall volume rises, subsequently heat is increased since a particular chemical solar radiation relies on one of its temperatures as well as critical or actual mass.
  • Whenever subjected to about a similar quantity of infrared radiation, distinct masses completely modify the temperature at varying intervals. The reason would be that the mass may consume heat energy by things.

Downwelling is the process that moves cold, dense water from the ocean surface to the seafloor near the polar regions. how can d
mash [69]

Explanation:

Downwelling is the process where cold and heavy dense water moves down into the ocean floor and warm light dense water rises to the surface. As a result of downwelling, the water high dense water which rises to the water surface brings the oxygen rich water to the surface for the marine animals to breathe properly. Also when the ocean surface water becomes little warmer it becomes a little comfortable for the marine animals to survive in this severely cold climatic conditions at polar reasons.

A weightlifter lifts a 250-kg mass 0.5 meters above his head, how much PEg does the mass have (Note: g=9.8 m/s2)? Round your ans
Anna71 [15]
The Gravitationa potential energy of the mass (PEG) is given by:
U=mgh
where
m is the mass
g is the gravitational acceleration
h is the heigth of the mass above the reference level (the ground)

In this problem, m=250 kg and h=0.5 m, therefore the gravitational potential energy of the mass is:
U=mgh=(250 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(0.5 m)=1225 J

The terminal speed of a sky diver is 130 km/h in the spread-eagle position and 326 km/h in the nosedive position. Assuming that
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

\frac{A_{slow} }{A_{fast} }=6.2885

Explanation:

Given data

Terminal velocity for spread eagle position vt=130 km/h

Terminal velocity for nosedive position vt=326 km/h

The terminal speed of the diver is given by

v_{t}=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{CpA} }

Therefore the area is given by

A=\frac{2mg}{Cp(v_{t})^{2}  }\\

Since everything else is constant in the two dives except for the terminal velocity, the ratio between the area in the slow position to the area in the fast position is

\frac{A_{slow} }{A_{fast} }=\frac{326^{2} }{130^{2} }\\\frac{A_{slow} }{A_{fast} }=6.2885
