Answer:

Stabilizing dunes involves multiple actions. Planting vegetation reduces the impact of wind and water. Wooden sand fences can help retain sand and other material needed for a healthy sand dune ecosystem. Footpaths protect dunes from damage from foot traffic.

what did classical physics predict about electron flow as a result of light shining on a metal surface?

stiv31 [10]

This looks like the photo electric effect ... classical physics reckoned that if you shone an intense enough light beam on a metal you could get electrons ejected from the metal (maybe in analogy to thermionic emission - heat). It sort of "forgot" about the frequency and photon/particle nature of light.
Enter the "photo electric" effect experiment, Einstein's explanation, and the Nobel committee having an excuse to award E a Nobel prize, even though said prize was probably more for relativity.

A ball bearing of radius of 1.5 mm made of iron of density

Serjik [45]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Viscosity \ of \ glycerine \ (\eta) = 14.382 \ poise}$

Given:

Radius of ball bearing (r) = 1.5 mm = 0.15 cm

Density of iron (ρ) = 7.85 g/cm³

Density of glycerine (σ) = 1.25 g/cm³

Terminal velocity (v) = 2.25 cm/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 980.6 cm/s²

To Find:

Viscosity of glycerine ( $\sf \eta$ )

Explanation:

$\boxed{ \bold{v = \frac{2}{9} \frac{( {r}^{2} ( \rho - \sigma)g)}{ \eta} }}$

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \frac{( {r}^{2}( \rho - \sigma)g )}{v}$

Substituting values of r, ρ, σ, v & g in the equation:

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \frac{( {(0.15)}^{2} \times (7.85 - 1.25) \times 980.6)}{2.25}$

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \frac{(0.0225 \times 6.6 \times 980.6)}{2.25}$

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \times \frac{145.6191}{2.25}$

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \times 64.7196$

$\sf \implies \eta = 2 \times 7.191$

$\sf \implies \eta = 14.382 \: poise$

Suppose an isolated box of volume 2V is divided into two equal compartments. An ideal gas occupies half of the container and the

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

A. the internal energy stays the same

Explanation:

From the first law of thermodynamics, "energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

Based on this first law of thermodynamic, the new internal energy of the gas is the same as the internal energy of the original system.

Therefore, when the partition separating the two halves of the box is removed and the system reaches equilibrium again, the internal energy stays the same.

Which equation is most likely used to determine the acceleration from a velocity vs:time graph?

tresset_1 [31]

Acceleration, a = (v - u)/t

where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, and t is the time.

This formula on a velocity time graph represents the slope of the graph.

Jade and her roommate Jari commute to work each morning, traveling west on I-10. One morning Jade left for work at 6:45 A.M., bu

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Jari

Explanation:

The question requires to know who is traveling faster. This is done by comparing the gradients. The steeper the slope (high gradient), the faster the speed and vice versa.

From Jari's line, the starting point is (0, 0) and another point is (6, 7)

The gradient being change in y to change in x

Change in y=7-0=7

Change in x=6-0=6

Slope is 7/6

For Jade, first point is (0, 10) then another point is (6, 16)

Change in y=16-10=6

Change in x=6-0=6

Slope is 6/6=1

Clearly, 7/6 is greater than 6/6 or 1 hence Jari is faster than Jade
