    which increase the power of the waves. A Variety of sub aerial processes can also affect the rate of erosion on a headland. The headlands in Beachhead are created out of chalk. Though they are highly resistant to waves and the forces of abrasion and hydraulic action that come with those waves. The beachhead chalk cliffs are vulnerable to sub aerial processes such as acid rain. The formation of headlands allows many other coastal landforms to be created. Such as the stack on the isle of Purbeck named

    of 12 seconds and accelerates 0-80mph in 2.3 seconds. It uses a hydraulic launching system and a magnetic breaking system and the maximum G force felt by the rider is 4.5. (1) Launching System: Stealth’s launch system operates on the same basic principle as a Water gun but on a much larger scale. The coaster ’s power source is several hydraulic pumps‚ each capable of producing 500 horsepower (370 kW). These pumps push hydraulic fluid into several accumulators. These accumulators are divided

    rocker/ cradle mining by individuals and small groups of miners in California did damage the environment in small ways‚ but the real damage began to occur when big groups and conglomerates started diverting rivers to dig the stream bed and using Hydraulic mining equipment. These larger operations with more capital were able to use more mechanized and expensive equipment‚ and the environment of California suffered more as a result. Placer mining is searching for the gold that has been eroded from

    type 2.      Hydraulic type 3.      Pneumatic type In mechanical type‚ the screw rod is actuating the movable jaw. One end is connected to the movable jaw and it passes through a fixed type nut. When we rotate one end of the screw rod it will rotate in the nut and in turn moves the movable jaw. Here the rotary motion is converted into reciprocating motion. In Hydraulic type’s one end of the piston rod is connected to the movable jaw and the piston slides in the cylinder. Here the hydraulic fluid actuates
