Umm I think that it's called a run off! Because it's running off of a surface into water.

Answer:

Precipitation, runoff and percolation

Explanation:

The water cycle refers to the movement of water from one place to another by undergoing certain processes such as evaporation, transpiration, condensation. This plays an important role in maintaining the total amount of water on earth.

From the figure, it can be concluded that the process of precipitation, runoff and percolation are the three stages in which the water moves downward due to the influence of gravity.

The precipitation occurs in the form of snowfall, rainfall, and so on. This allows the water to fall freely because of gravity.

The surface water runoff also occurs under the influence of gravity, that rapidly falls downward along the slope of the area and gets mixed up with the rivers, streams and lakes.

Lastly, during the water cycle process, some of the water gets percolate downward through the voids present within the rocks. Here the water moves because of the effect of gravity but at a much slower rate. This water then slowly adds to the groundwater.

George walks to a friend's house. He walks 850 meters north before he realizes he walked too far.
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

<h2>44 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

In this problem we are expected to calculate the velocity of Georges movements.

Given data

Total distance covered by  George= 850+250= 1100 meters

Time taken  by  George to cover the total distance= 25 seconds

We know that velocity is, v= distance/ time

Therefore substituting our data into the expression for velocity we have

v= 1100/ 25= 44 m/s

Hence the velocity in m/s is 44

If gravity on the earth increased, what affect would it have on the moon
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

If gravity on Earth is increased, this gravitational tugging would have influenced the moon's rotation rate. If it was spinning more than once per orbit, Earth would pull at a slight angle against the moon's direction of rotation, slowing its spin. If the moon was spinning less than once per orbit, Earth would have pulled the other way, speeding its rotation.

A ball is thrown horizontally from a window that is 15.4 meters high at a speed of 3.01 m/s. How far will the ball go before hit
tia_tia [17]

The distance travelled by the ball that is thrown horizontally from a window that is 15.4 meters high at a speed of 3.01 m/s is 5.34 m

s = ut + 1 / 2 at²

s = Distance

u = Initial velocity

t = Time

a = Acceleration

Vertically,

s = 15.4 m

u = 0

a = 9.8 m / s²

15.4 = 0 + ( 1 / 2 * 9.8 * t² )

t² = 3.14

t = 1.77 s

Horizontally,

u = 3.01 m / s

a = 0 ( Since there is no external force )

s = ( 3.01 * 1.77 ) + 0

s = 5.34 m

Therefore, the distance travelled by the ball before hitting the ground is 5.34 m

To determine the coefficient of static friction between two materials, an engineer places a small sample of one material on a ho
Fudgin [204]

This question is incomplete, the missing image is uploaded along this answer.

Answer:

the coefficient of friction is 0.32

Explanation:

 Given the data in the question;

we make use of kinematic equation of motion;

ω = ω₀ + ∝t

we substitute

ω = ( 0 rad/s ) + ( 0.4 rad/s² )( 9.903 s )

ω = 3.9612 rad/s

The centripetal force acting on the sample is;

Fc = mrω²

from the image; r = 200 mm = 0.2 m

so we substitute

Fc = m(0.2 m ) ( 3.9612 rad/s )²

Fc = (3.13822 m/s²)m

we know that the frictional force between the two materials should be providing the necessary centripetal force to rotate the sample object;

f = Fc

μN = Fc

μmg = (3.13822 m/s²)m

μ = (3.13822 m/s²)m / mg

μ = (3.13822 m/s²) / g

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s²

so

μ = (3.13822 m/s²) / 9.8 m/s²

μ = 0.32

Therefore, the coefficient of friction is 0.32
