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.

klemol [59]

Answer: when a circuit is completed (it allows the flow of electrons which causes the light bulb to produce light).

Explanation:

A circuit is described as an electrical setup that is consists of a light bulb, a switch, a wire, a battery which is arranged to allow the flow of electric current. The major components of the electrical circuit includes:

--> The BATTERY which is the source of voltage to the circuit,

--> the WIRE which is the conductive path,

--> the LIGHT BULB which is the load that needs electrical power to operate and

--> the SWITCH which is the controller.

When a circuit is COMPLETED when electrons can flow from one end of a battery all the way around, through the wires, to the other end of the battery. Along its way, it will carry electrons to electrical objects that are connected to it like the light bulb and make it to produce light.

There are different types of electric circuit which are designed to create a conductive path of current or electricity. They include:

--> closed circuit

--> open circuit

--> short circuit

--> parallel circuit

--> series circuit.

Ivan drove to the mountains last weekend. There was heavy traffic on the way there, and the trip took 7 hours. When Ivan drove h

lesya692 [45]

Answer:252 miles

Explanation:

Given

During his way to mountain it took 7 hr to drive

and during his return trip it took 4 hr to return

Let x be the distance between home and mountain

average speed for return is 27 miles per hour faster than his former trip

let v be the speed on his way to mountain thus v+27 is his return speed

thus $7=\frac{x}{v}$ ----1

for return trip

$4=\frac{x}{v+27}$ -----2

divide 1 & 2

$\frac{7}{4}=\frac{x\cdot (v+27)}{v\cdot x}$

$7v=4v+4\cdot 27$

$3v=4\cdot 27$

$v=36 mph$

thus $x=7\times 36=252\ miles$

A hydrogen atom in a galaxy moving with a speed of 6.65×106 m/???? away from the Earth emits light with a wavelength of 5.13×10−

Mumz [18]

Answer:

The observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom is $5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

The actual wavelength of the hydrogen atom, $\lambda_a=5.13\times 10^{-7}\ m$

A hydrogen atom in a galaxy moving with a speed of, $v=6.65\times 10^6\ m/s$

We need to find the observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom. The speed of galaxy is given by :

$v=c\times \dfrac{\lambda_o-\lambda_a}{\lambda_a}$

$\lambda_o$ is the observed wavelength

$\lambda_o=\dfrac{v\lambda_a}{c}+\lambda_a\\\\\lambda_o=\dfrac{6.65\times 10^6\times 5.13\times 10^{-7}}{3\times 10^8}+5.13\times 10^{-7}\\\\\lambda_o=5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m$

So, the observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom is $5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
