What is beach nourishment

Physics
1 answer:
guajiro [1.7K]3 years ago
4 0
Beach nourishment describes a process by which sediment, usually sand, lost through longshore drift or erosion is replaced from other sources. A wider beach can reduce storm damage to coastal structures by dissipating energy across the surf zone, protecting upland structures and infrastructure from storm surges, tsunamis and unusually high tides

When a wave strikes a new medium, three things can happen: reflection, transmission, and absorption. Consider an echo. Do you th
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

YES

Explanation:

An echo may be defined as a sound which is repeated because of the sound waves that are produced are reflected back after striking a surface. Sound waves can smoothly bounce off the hard objects in the same manner as a rubber ball bounces back the ground.

When a sound wave strikes a hard surface, the sound waves gets reflected back and bounces back to the observer and produces an echo. If the sound waves strikes a soft surface it absorbs the sound.

Although the direction of a sound changes but the echo sounds in the same way as the original sound.

How is temperature related to the physical change of a substance?
WINSTONCH [101]
When you heat something of cool it down you don't change the substance you might change the why is looks, but it is still the same substance. For example you cool water to 0 degrees Celsius it turns into ice but it still is two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen H2O. Physical changes will change state and/or form but it will still be what it originally was on the molecular level. Hope that helped.

Calculate the ratio of the kinetic energy of an electron to that of a proton if their wavelengths are equal. Assume that the spe
goblinko [34]

Answer:

the ratio of the kinetic energy of an electron to that of a proton if their wavelengths are equal is 1835.16 .

Explanation:

We know, wavelength is expressed in terms of Kinetic Energy by :

\lambda=\dfrac{h}{\sqrt{2mE}}

Therefore , E=\dfrac{h^2}{2 \lambda^2 m}

It is given that both electron and proton have same wavelength.

Therefore,

E_e=\dfrac{h^2}{2 \lambda^2 m_e}   .... equation 1.

E_p=\dfrac{h^2}{2 \lambda^2 m_p}   .... equation 2.

Now, dividing equation 1 by 2 .

We get ,

\dfrac{E_e}{E_p}=\dfrac{\dfrac{h^2}{2 \lambda^2 m_e}}{\dfrac{h^2}{2 \lambda^2 m_p}}\\\\\\\dfrac{E_e}{E_p}=\dfrac{m_p}{m_e}

Putting value of mass of electron = 9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg and mass of proton = 1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg.

We get :

\dfrac{E_e}{E_p}=\dfrac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg}=1835.16

Hence , this is the required solution.

What is the difference between a circuit and a current?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

a circuit is a complete loop that carries a current in the form of electrons from negative to positive

Explanation:

The difference between current and circuit is that a circuit is a complete loop that carries a current in the form of electrons from negative to positive .

In a circuit, there are difference elements or components such as the battery, wire, resistor. The goal of a circuit arrangement is to completely carry current from one end to another.

The current is the quantity of charge that flows within the circuit per unit of time.

So, the battery supplies the electromotive force to move the current round the circuit.
