1 Land Subsidence: Causes‚ Detection‚ and the Wilmington Oil Field‚ Long Beach Land subsidence is a major predicament in many areas of the United State and occurs for many reasons. Land subsidence is the gradual settling or sudden sinking of the Earth’s surface owing to subsurface movement of earth materials‚ usually with little or no horizontal movement (Galloway et al.). Subsidence hazards involve either the sudden collapse of the ground to form a depression or the slow subsidence or compaction

PHYSICS 1 FAP0015 Questions & Answers to Physics I Assignments Chapter 1 11. What‚ roughly‚ is the percent uncertainty in the volume of a spherical beach ball whose radius is r = 2.86 ± 0.09 m? Answer: To find the approximate uncertainty in the volume‚ calculate the volume for the specified radius‚ the minimum radius‚ and the maximum radius. Subtract the extreme volumes. The uncertainty in the volume is then half this variation in volume. 3 Vspecified = 4 π rspecified = 4 π ( 2.86 m ) = 9
