Answer:

30 meters/day.

Explanation:

Glacial motion can be fast up to 30 meters/day or slow up to 0.5 m/year on small glaciers moving the impact on local landforms. If the glacial motion goes up to 30 meters/day, more fast change occurs in the local landforms while on the other hand, if the glacial motion goes up to 0.5 m/year, very slow change occurs in the local landforms. So glacial motion has a direct affect on the changes occurs in the local landforms.

If a flea can jump straight up to a height of 0.550 m , what is its initial speed as it leaves the ground?
olga55 [171]
Let u = upward initial speed of the flea.

At the maximum height of h = 0.550 m, the vertical velocity is v = 0.
Therefore, from the formula
 v² = u² - 2gh,
obtain
0 = u² - 2*(9.8 m/s²)*(0.55 m) 
u² = 10.78 m²/s²
 u = 3.283 m/s

Answer: The initial upward speed is 3.28 m/s (nearest thousandth)

Application of surface tension:
1) A needle placed on water can be made to float due to the surface tension of water.
2) Mosquito eggs can float on water because of its surface tension.
3) Toothpaste contains soap, which reduce the surface tension and helps it spread freely in the mouth.
