Answer:

Gravity dams are so named because they are held to the ground by gravity – they weigh a lot, and are typically made from concrete or stone. Engineers must de-water the river where the dam is meant to be built. This is done by diverting the river through a tunnel that runs around the intended construction zone.

Answer:First, they dug tunnels from below the dam to above the dam. Then, they put the cofferdam in place, and opened the tunnels. The water flowed around the site where the permanent dam would be built until they were done, at which point the cofferdam was removed.

The current, 2019, women's world record for the
sesenic [268]

Answer: D

8.403 m/s

Explanation:

Given that the women's world record for the 400-meter run around an oval track is held by Marita Koch, with a time of 47.60

seconds.

Her average velocity during this race will be

Velocity = distance/ time

Velocity = 400 / 47.6

Velocity = 8.403 m/s

Therefore, her average velocity during this race will be 8.403 m/s

D is therefore the correct answer.

Which is a characteristic of projectile motion?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
<h2>Right answer: It follows a curved path </h2>

The movement of a projectile is a movement in two dimensions (forming a curved path: a parabola shape) with <u>constant acceleration. </u>

<u> </u>

A projectile is any body or object that is thrown or projected by means of some force and continues in motion by its own inertia. This means the only force that acts on it while in motion is <u>the acceleration of gravity</u> (in this case we are on Earth, so the gravity value is 9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}).  

Where gravity influences the <u>vertical movement</u> of the projectile, while <u>the horizontal movement</u> of the projectile is the result of the tendency of any object to remain in motion at a constant speed (according to Newton's 1st law of motion sometimes called Law of Inertia).

The other options are <u>incorrect</u> because are <u>false</u>:

-The forward motion negates air resistance: There is always at least a small percent of air resistance, as long as that movement is done on Earth.  

-It has variable acceleration: In projectile motion acceleration is constant (gravity acceleration) .

-It is unaffected by gravity: The only force that acts on the projectile is due gravity.
