Answer: This is MECHANICAL type of weathering.
Explanation:
Weathering is defined as the process by which rocks breakdown into smaller quantities due to different atmospheric and biological activities.
There are different types of weathering which include:
--> MECHANICAL WEATHERING: This type of weathering is also called physical weathering. Here, rocks are being broken down into smaller pieces but the mineral composition of the rock remains the same. This type of weathering can occur in two ways:
• By Ice wedging: this is one of the easiest ways rocks can be broken into smaller pieces. It occurs at the earth polar regions (climate that regularly cycles above and below the freezing point) and in areas of higher elevations such as the mountains. Ice wedging of rocks occurs when water seeps into cracks, it freezes and expands. This results in wedging (splitting) the rocks apart with repeated freezing.
• By Abrasion: this is another form in which mechanical weathering occurs. Abrasion occurs when strong winds carrying pieces of sand sandblast mountain surfaces. Also moving water, gravity, biological activities can cause abrasion of rock surfaces leading to its weathering.
Therefore, small pieces of sand hitting the side of a mountain and weathering the rock is an example of mechanical weathering by abrasion.
A man pulls a sled at a constant velocity across a horizontal snow surface . If a force of 80 n is being applied to the sled at an 53 degree to the ground . What is the force of friction between sled and snow
Answer:
Explanation:
The force of 80N is applied on sled at 53⁰
Its horizontal component = 80cos53
= 48.14 N .
Its horizontal component will pull forward the sled and friction will prevent its forward motion . As sled is moving with constant velocity , net force on it is zero .
Hence forward push = frictional force
Frictional force = 48.14 N.
A 50kg gymnast is bouncing on a trampoline. If she is going down at 5m/s when she lands on the trampoline, and it bouncesher up in the opposite direction at a velocity of 4m/s, whatis her change in momentum?
Answer:
450 kgm/s upward
Explanation:
From the question,
Change in monentum = mass× change in velocity
ΔM = mΔv....................... Equation 1
ΔM = m(v-u).................. Equation 2
Where ΔM = Change in momentum, m = mass of the gymnast, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity
Given: m = 50 kg, v = -4 m/s. u = 5 m/s
Substitute these values into equation 2
ΔM = 50(-4-5)
ΔM = 50(-9)
ΔM = -450 kgm/s
Hence the change in momentum of the gymnast is 450 kgm/s upward

10-kg box is sliding across an ice rink at 10 m/s . A skater exerts a constant force of 10 N against it. How long will it take for the box to come to a complete stop?
Answer:
Time, t = 10 seconds
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 10kg
Force = 10N
Final velocity = 10m/s
Initial velocity = 0m/s
To find the time;
First of all, we would find the acceleration of the box.
Force = mass * acceleration
10 = 10 * acceleration
Acceleration = 10/10 = 1m/s²
Now, we can find the time by using the first equation of motion;
V = U + at
10 = 0 + 1t
10 = t
Time, t = 10 seconds
Therefore, it will take 10 seconds for the box to come to a complete stop.

What chemical change occurs to animals and plants once they are no longer living?
Burning
Cooking
Decaying
Folding
Answer:
Decaying
Explanation:
Dead plants and animals go through decaying process as their body is broken down into many pieces which later becomes the part of soil. Decaying process is done by decomposers like bacteria, fungi, etc.
HELP!!! I MIGHT FAIL THE 6th GRADE IF I DON'T GET HELP!!!! The southern United States experiences periodic occurrences of severe cold and drought conditions. Which weather phenomenon most likely causes this and why?
Answer:
La Niña, because the jet stream is displaced northwards
Explanation:
La Nina is known to be a cool phase that affects the average ocean temperature. During this period the surface wind becomes stronger and there is lesser rainfall over the areas of the central tropical Pacific to which the Southern United States belongs.
Hence, when the southern United States experiences periodic occurrences of severe cold and drought conditions, the weather phenomenon most likely causes this and why is "La Niña, because the jet stream is displaced northwards."
When a pot of water sits on a hot stove the metal is He did and then transferred into heat to the world of student claims that conduction is the only type feet transfer occurring which statement explains why the students idea is incorrect
Answer:
Hello your question is poorly written hence I will just give the difference between conduction and convection
answer :
Conduction occurs when there is direct contact between solids and source of heat. while convection occurs when there is transfer of thermal energy due to movement of liquid or gas
Explanation:
when a pot of water is placed on a hot stove the pot is heated through conduction because the metal pot is in direct conduct with the heat from the stove ( which is the primary source of heat in this scenerio ).
while the heat transfer from the hot pot to the water is executed through convection this is because heat transfer via convection requires the movement of liquid or gas. as the warmer liquid moves over to the top the cooler liquid goes below inside the pot that way the whole liquid becomes warm .
Two charges of 5 x 10-6 C are a certain distance apart. These two positive charges experience 3.6 N of repelling electrical force between them. How far apart are these charges?
Answer:
r = 0.2499 m
Explanation:
Use Coulomb's Law: [tex]F_{e} = kq_{1}q_{2} / r^{2}[/tex] where Fe is the electric force, q1 and q2 are the 2 charges respectively, k is a constant (8.99*10^9 N • m^2 / C^2) and r is the distance.
[tex]3.6 N = (8.99*10^{9})(5*10^{-6})(5*10^{-6}) / r^{2}[/tex]
r = 0.2499 m
The distance that should be apart from these charges should be considered when the r = 0.2499 m.
Calculation of the distance apart:Since
Two charges of 5 x 10-6 C are a certain distance apart. These two positive charges experience 3.6 N of repelling electrical force between them
So
here we use Columb law
Electric force = k * two charges * two charges)r^2
3.6 N = (8.99*10^9) * ( 5 * 10^-6) * (5*10^-6)r^2
r = 0.2499 m.
Hence, The distance that should be apart from these charges should be considered when the r = 0.2499 m.

A 4kg object has a momentum of 12 kg*m/s, what is the objects velocity?
If a net force acting on a moving object causes its speed to increase, what
happens to the object's momentum?
A. It stays the same.
B. It increases.
C. It changed directions.
D. It decreases.
Answer:
It increases.
Explanation:
If a force acts in the same direction as the object's motion, then the force speeds the object up. Either way, a force will change the velocity of an object. And if the velocity of the object is changed, then the momentum of the object is changed.

If the area of a concrete slap weighing 300n is 400cm2 ,how much pressure can it apply when kept on the ground
Answer:
7500 N/m²
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Force (F) = 300 N
Area (A) = 400 cm²
Pressure (P) =?
Next, we shall convert 400 cm² to m². This can be obtained as follow:
1×10⁴ cm² = 1 m²
Therefore,
400 cm² = 400 cm² × 1 m² / 1×10⁴ cm²
400 cm² = 0.04 m²
Finally, we shall determine the pressure. This can be obtained as follow:
Force (F) = 300 N
Area (A) = 0.04 m²
Pressure (P) =?
P = F/A
P = 300 / 0.04
P = 7500 N/m²

(0) what is meant by regeneration,
(ii) why an analogue signal cannot be regenerated
Explanation:
1.) Regeneration is the natural process of replacing or restoring damaged or missing cells, tissues, organs, and even entire body parts to full function in plants and animals.2.) When noise is added to analogue signals, it usually sounds like background hiss. Such noise can not be removed so the original clean signal can not be re-created or re-generated.

Answer:
The Acceleration of the object = 6.4 m/s²
Explanation:
Mass of block (m) = 5 kg
Action force on block, (F₁) = 40 N
To Find:
Acceleration of the object (a) = ?
Required solution:
Frictional force opposing the motion (F₂) = 8 N
Here in this question we have to find Acceleration of the object. So, firstly we have to find Net force of block after that we will find Acceleration of the object on the basis of conditions given above
⇒ Net force = Action force on block - Opposing friction force
⇒ F = F₁ - F₂
⇒ F = 40 - 8
⇒ F = 32 N
Now, we have to two elements that used in formula, Net force and Mass of block.
Net force of the block (F) = 32 N
Mass of block (m) = 5 kg
And we have to find Acceleration of the object.
We can find Acceleration of the object by using the Second law of Newton which says F = ma
Here,
F is the Force in N.
m is the Mass in kg.
a is the Acceleration in m/s².
So let's find Acceleration (a) !
† From second law of Newton
⇛ F = ma
⇛ a = F/m
⇛ a = 32/5
⇛ a = 6.4 m/s²
