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

Alex787 [66]
The direction of the force experienced by the positive charge is upward.

We can use the right-hand rule to understand the direction of the Lorentz force acting on the charge: let's put the thumb in the same direction of the current in the wire (eastward), while the other fingers "wrap themselves" around the wire. These other fingers give the direction of the Lorentz force in every point of the space around the wire. Since the charge is located north of the wire, in that point the fingers are directed upward, so the positive charge experiences a force directed upward.
(if it was a negative charge, we should have taken the opposite direction)

A battery-operated car utilizes a 12.0 V system. Initially, the car is at rest at the base of a 195 m high hill. Some time later
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

140265.8 C = 1.403 × 10⁵ C

Explanation:

The battery's electric potential energy is used to account for the kinetic and potential work done in moving the car up this hill.

Potential work required to move the 757 kg car up a vertical height of 195 m = mgh

P.E = 757 × 9.8 × 195 = 1446627 J

Kinetic work done = (1/2)(m)(v²)

K.E = (1/2)(757)(25²) = 236562.5 J

Total work done in moving the car up that height = 1446627 + 236562.5 = 1683189.5 J

And this would be equal to the potential of the battery.

For the battery, potential difference = (electric potential energy)/(charges moved)

ΔV = ΔU/q

q = ΔU/ΔV

ΔU = 1683189.5 J

ΔV = 12.0 V

q = 1683189.5/12 = 140265.8 C
