Answer:

D. Hotel 3 because they will experience beach erosion    

Explanation:

A beach groin is a man made structure which is used to protect the beach from sand erosion. It makes the water current to deviate in the other direction thus preventing the beach in the groin area to be eroded.

In the context, constructing a groin by Hotel 2 will prevent beach erosion in its area but this will lead to the soil erosion for the beach in front of hotel 3, thus affecting hotel 3. So Hotel 3 can sue Hotel 2 and stop the groin being constructed by the Hotel 2.

Hence the correct option is (D).

A force of 1.50 N acts on a 0.20kg trolley so as to accelerate it along an air track
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

2.12m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force on trolley  = 1.5N

Mass of trolley  = 0.2kg

Unknown:

Velocity of the trolley  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we first find the acceleration of the trolley;

          Force  = mass x acceleration

         Acceleration  = \frac{Force }{mass}

Insert the parameters and solve;

          Acceleration  = \frac{1.5}{0.2}   = 7.5m/s²

Now to find the acceleration;

  Initial velocity  = 0m/s

  v² = u² + 2aS

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

S is the distance

  Distance  = 30cm and this is 0.3m

     v² = 0² + 2(7.5)0.3  = 4.5

     v = √4.5 = 2.12m/s

A bus start from rest and then moves with a constant acceleration of 2m/s square. calculate its time of traven if its final velo
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Its Answer is 10 s.

Explanation:

As acceleration is defined as time rate of change of velocity. So,

a =  ( vf - vi ) ÷ t

2 = (20 - 0 ) ÷ t

2 =  20 ÷  t

t = 20 ÷ 2

t  = 10 s

We have put initial velocity as zero because  body is starting from rest.

A 0.144kg baseball is pitched horizontally at 38.0 m/s. After the baseball is hit by the bat, it moves at the same speed, but in
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Given:

mass of the ball m = 0.144 kg

velocity v = 38 m/s

now,  change in momentum

P = m v- ( - mv)

  = 2 mv

  =2 x (0.144) x (38)

  = 10.944 kg-m/s

Impulse J= F. Δt

change in momentum is equal to impulse

J = 10.944 kg-m/s

we know force is equal to change in momentum per unit time

F = \dfrac{P}{t}

F = \dfrac{10.944}{0.8\times 10^{-3}}

F = 13.68 x 10³ N

F = 13.68 kN

What happens to the volume of an ideal gas as temperature drops
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Based on the ideal gas equation, the pressure (P), volume (V) and temperature (T) corresponding to n moles of an ideal gas are related as:

PV = nRT

where R = gas constant

Under conditions of constant pressure and  number of moles:

The volume is directly proportional to the pressure. Therefore, as the temperature drops the volume will also decrease.

V α T

This is also known as the Charles Law.
