Answer:

Deposition happens, if the wind stops blowing.

Deposition is the dropping of sediment by wind, water, ice, or gravity.

Answer:

Deposition

Explanation:

Deposition occurs when water slows or ceases moving, the wind dies or stops blowing, or glaciers melt. The deposited material can also be used to construct new landforms. Waves, for example, can dump sediment in places offshore, where it might accumulate to form sand dunes.

When the wind calms down or vegetation stops or slows the breeze, the sediment particles begin to fall. Water is another factor that may erode, move, or deposit sediment. Flowing water is a key erosive agent. Water transports dirt and rock fragments as it moves. Warm, wet air will not travel if wind systems are not present. Water will still evaporate, but it will not move, therefore everywhere else than a major body of water will dry up. Lakes may be fine since evaporating water will flow back into them, and the sea will be fine, but everywhere else will become extremely dry very rapidly. Wind is constantly blowing somewhere on the world at any given time. Winds are usually quiet near the middle of a high pressure system. Wind is the passage of air from a high pressure location to a low pressure area.... So essentially air is always moving. Weathering and erosion are caused by wind. Weathering is caused by wind blowing debris against cliffs and huge rocks. This wears down the rock, reducing it to sand and dust. Sand and dust are also eroded by wind. 2. Rocks are tough and durable, but they don't last forever. Weathering and erosion are processes that occur as a result of forces such as wind and water breaking down rocks. Weathering is the process through which rocks deteriorate. Weathering is caused by a variety of factors, including climate change.

Answer:

0.785 m/s

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve this problem we will use the equation of motion of the harmonic oscillator, i.e.

$x(t) = A cos(\omega t )+B sin(\omega t)$ - (1)

$\frac{dx}{dt}(t) = \omega (B cos(\omega t )- A sin(\omega t)$ - (1)

The problem say us that the spring is released from rest when the spring is stretched by 0.100 m, this condition is given as:

$x(0) = 0.100$

$\frac{dx}{dt}(0) = 0$

Since cos(0)=1 and sin(0) = 0:

$x(0)=A$

$\frac{dx}{dt}(0) = -B\omega$

We get

$A =0.100\\B = 0$

Now it say that after 0.4s the weigth reaches zero speed. This will happen when the sping shrinks by 0.100. This condition is written as:

$x(0.4) = - 0.100$

Since

$x(t) = 0.100 cos(\omega t)\\ -0.100=x(0.4)=0.100cos(\omega 0.4)$

This is the same as:

$-1 = cos(0.4\omega)$

We know that cosine equals to -1 when its argument is equal to:

(2n+1)π

With n an integer

The first time should happen when n=0

Therefore:

π = 0.4ω

ω = π/0.4 -- (2)

Now, the maximum speed will be reached when the potential energy is zero, i.e. when the sping is not stretched, that is when x = 0

With this info we will know at what time it happens:

$0 = x(t) = 0.100cos(\omega t)$

The first time that the cosine is equal to zero is when its argument is equal to π/2

i.e.

$t_{maxV}=\pi /(2\omega)$

And the velocity at that time is:

$\frac{dx}{dt}(t_{maxV} ) =- 0.100\omega sin(\omega t_{maxV})\\\frac{dx}{dt}(t_{maxV} ) =- 0.100\omega sin(\pi/2)\\$

But sin(π/2) = 1.

Therefore, using eq(2):

$\frac{dx}{dt}(t_{maxV} ) = 0.100*\omega = 0.100\frac{\pi}{0.400} = \pi/4$

And so:

$V_{max} = \pi / 4 =0.785$

Which of the following is NOT a geological event caused by the movement of tectonic plates?

photoshop1234 [79]

The answer is A. Mountains form because tectonic plates overlap. Earthquakes form because of the moving of tectonic plates. The moving of tectonic plates causes holes in the crust so magma from the mantle escapes and erupts from volcanoes. I hope I helped!

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Newton's first law

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force. Therefore, when the ice is smooth, friction gets lesser, and the force acted on that Puck will be decreased.

1) Current in each bulb: 0.1 A

The two light bulbs are connected in series, this means that their equivalent resistance is just the sum of the two resistances:

$R_{eq}=R_1 + R_2 = 400 \Omega + 800 \Omega=1200 \Omega$
