    Groyne Investigation FINAL Report‚ Alice Cearns ABSTRACT The purpose of the investigation is to analyse the effect a groyne has on a beach’s formation and sand deposition‚ and the seasonal impact the ocean has on its shoreline. South Cottesloe beach contains native plants‚ from berry saltbushes to red-eyed wattles; it has accumulated sea wrack and rocky surfaces especially south of the groyne‚ and sand dunes running down to the swash zone. With fences running parallel to the water line‚ this

    counts of the aluminum remaining at fifteen different one-minute intervals‚ this allowed the net counts per minute at each interval to be found as well. Next a graph of the net cpm verses time was plotted. After each interval was plotted the K-value (slope) was found along with the half-life. The actual half-life of Aluminum is 2.25 minutes. The half-life found in our group was 2.23 minutes. Procedure: The procedure is as follows on pages 63-67 of the Chemistry Laboratory Manual. No changes were

    Mass Movement: Mass movement is dependent on the development of instability on a hill slope when equilibrium has been disturbed. Safety Factor is a measured by ratio of resistance which the slope offers against movement (sheer STRENGHT) to the force which is trying to enact that movement (sheer STRESS) Factors affecting Sheer STRESS 1) Angle /Steepness of Slope: Inclination of slope will affect the magnitude of gravitational force enacting on the regolith. a. the larger the angle

    product curve has a positive slope (upward sloping) then marginal product is positive. If the total product curve has a negative slope (downward sloping)‚ then marginal product is negative. If the total product curve has a zero slope (horizontal)‚ then marginal product is zero. Moreover‚ if the total product curve has a positive and increasingly steeper slope‚ then the marginal product is positive and rising. If the total product curve has a positive and decreasingly steeper slope‚ then the marginal product

    by x to come up with x/2 Now we have y = x/2 + 1 Let’s use the formula y = mx + b whereas m equals slope and equals the y-intercept. Right now we know that m = ½ when using the above formula So in order to find the equation which is parallel to y + 1/2(x + 1) the slopes will have to be equal. We must incorporate the slope of the equation to find the parallel lines by using the point slope formula. (4‚ 2) and m = ½ Use formula for equation of a line: m = mx + b Substitute the value of m
