MissTica

Answer: Tsunami.

Explanation :

Tsunami is the result of a sudden vertical offset in the ocean floor and is most often the result of plate movement on the ocean floor.

Tsunami is caused due to the displacement of a large volume of water like in an ocean. It consists of a series of waves. It destroys coastlines and coastal settlements. It is also known as a tidal wave.

So, the correct option is (b) Tsunami.

During an adiabatic process an object does 100 J of work and its temperature decreases by 5 K. During another process it does 25

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The heat capacity for the second process is 15 J/K.

Explanation:

Given that,

Work = 100 J

Change temperature = 5 k

For adiabatic process,

The heat energy always same.

$dQ=0$

$dU=-dW$

We need to calculate the number of moles and specific heat

Using formula of heat

$dU=nC_{v}dT$

$nC_{v}=\dfrac{dU}{dT}$

Put the value into the formula

$nC_{v}=\dfrac{-100}{5}$

$nC_{v}=-20\ J/K$

We need to calculate the heat

Using formula of heat

$dQ=nC_{v}(dT_{1})+dW_{1}$

Put the value into the formula

$dQ=-20\times5+25$

$dQ=-75\ J$

We need to calculate the heat capacity for the second process

Using formula of heat

$dQ=nC_{v}(dT_{1})$

Put the value into the formula

$-75=nC_{v}\times(-5)$

$nC_{v}=\dfrac{-75}{-5}$

$nC_{v}=15\ J/K$

Hence, The heat capacity for the second process is 15 J/K.

A woman launches a boat from one shore of a straight river and wants to land at the point directly on the opposite shore. If the

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,

she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have

x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river

x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South

sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2

She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South
