Answer:

Storm surge is the additional water, above the normal tidal ocean water, caused by the wind and low pressure of a hurricane. It is added to whatever the tide happens to be when the storm hits. If the storm hits at high tide then it’s X feet above the high tide. Tides fluctuates based upon the time of the year and the cycle of the moon.

As a freely falling object picks up downward speed, what happens to the power supplied by the gravitational force?.

siniylev [52]

Answer:

As a freely falling object picks up downward speed. What happens to the power supplied by the gravitational force? Does it increase, decrease or stay the same? The power will increase because (Power=work/time; work=f(d); and F x d/t; FV).

A horizontal force of 300 N is applied to move a 55 kg sofa across a 10 m level surface. What is the net work done by this 300 N

gavmur [86]

I think the answer is 3000 joules since work is force times distance.

The densities of cardboard, aluminum, and lead are 0.6 g/cm^3, 2.7 g/cm^3, and 11.4 g/cm^3, respectively. Suppose that you are s

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

For cardboard = 29.4 g/cm²

For aluminium = 113.4 g/cm²

For lead = 193.8 g/cm²

Explanation:

Given:

Density of the cardboard, d₁ = 0.6 g/cm³

Density of the aluminium, d₂ = 2.7 g/cm³

Density of the lead, d₃ = 11.4 g/cm³

Length of the cardboard, L₁ = 49 cm

Length of the aluminium, L₂ = 42 cm

Length of the lead, L₃ = 17 cm

Now,

The absorber thickness is calculated as:

= Density × Length

therefore,

For cardboard = d₁ × L₁ = 0.6 × 49 = 29.4 g/cm²

For aluminium = d₂ × L₂ = 2.7 × 42 = 113.4 g/cm²

For lead = d₃ × L₃ = 11.4 × 17 = 193.8 g/cm²

A rod of XY of weight 16N is hinged at X and supported by a string at Y. The string is at angle 30°. The tension in the string i

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Option C) 14N

Explanation:

we know that

To find out the horizontal component of the force acting at X, multiply the tension in the string by the cosine of 30 degrees

$(16\ N)cos(30^o)=13.9\ N$

Round to the nearest whole number

$14\ N$

Which statement best describes why an island's food web could be considered a closed system?

garik1379 [7]

I would say Option B) because Option C) is wrong since matter cannot be created. A closed system does not exchange matter so it's not Option D). Since an island is an isolated area, Option A) is wrong.
