Answer:

The correct answer is D. Creep.

Explanation:

Ground creep is a slow downward movement of a hill or mountain slope without the formation of demolition forms. The decisive factor for this is the continuous flow of movement of the soil.

The main driver of collapse is the movement of the surface layer particles during expansion in a direction perpendicular to the slope, followed by vertical collapse on contraction. The visible effect of the collapsing is the inclination of fences and poles, as well as trees that grow out of the ground towards the slope and have trunks curved vertically, in more extreme cases it may be cracks on the walls of buildings.

Damm [24]

9 Newtons on the right, because:

Right and left are opposite directions, however, in the same direction.

We know that, opposite directions, the signal is of subtraction. So, you need to make the difference between 22 and 13, you will see that it is 9. Therefore, the Resulting Force will be 9.

A 600 N astronaut travels to an asteroid where the gravitational force is one-hundredth that of Earth. What is the astronaut's w
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

A) 6N

Explanation:

the weight of the astronaut on earth can be calculated with the formula

Weight = mass * gravity of earth

Since the gravitational force is one-hundredth of Earth, the formula should be

Weight = mass * (gravity of earth / 100)

Weight = (mass * gravity of earth) / 100

Since you already know the weight, you only need to divide by 100

Weight = (mass * gravity of earth) / 100

Weight = 600N / 100

Weight = 6N

A 30-kg child sits at the top of a 3-meter slide. After sliding down, the child is traveling 4 m/s. How much PE does he start wi
Jobisdone [24]
At the top:

         Potential Energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

                                       = (30 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (3 meters)

                                       =      882 joules

At the bottom:

           Kinetic Energy  =  (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

                                       = (1/2) x (30 kg) x (3 m/s)²

                                       =        (15 kg)  x  (9 m²/s²)

                                       =              135 joules .

He had  882 joules of potential energy at the top,
but only  135 joules of kinetic energy at the bottom.

Friction stole  (882 - 135) = 747 joules of his energy while he slid down.
The seat of his jeans must be pretty warm.

Electromagnetic radiation behaves both as particles (called photons) and as waves. Wavelength (λ) and frequency (ν) are related
inessss [21]
<h2>Answer: 136.363 m</h2>

Explanation:

We can find the wavelength of the radiation produced by the microwave oven by using the following given equation:

c=\lambda.\nu   (1)

Clearing \lambda :

\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}   (2)

Knowing \nu=2.20 GHz=2.20(10)^{6}Hz=2.20(10)^{6}s^{-1}

\lambda=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{2.20(10)^{6}s^{-1}}   (3)

\lambda=136.363m This is the wavelength of the radiation produced by the microwave
