264 km
72 x 3 hr = 216 km
72/60 (min in an hr) = 1.2(km per min) x 40 = 48 km
216 + 48 = 264
The correct answers are:
B. plant growth;
C. animal actions;
The mechanical weathering is a type of weathering where physical force is included into the breaking up of the rocks. The plants and the animals are both causing this type of weathering with their actions. The plants can cause mechanical weathering with their roots, as they grow and surround a rock, they are able to create such a pressure that they can break the rock apart. Also, as their trunks are getting bigger, if there's rocks right next to them, the pressure from the growing of the trunk will crack the rocks. The animals are able to move the rocks, as well as pushing them, or even deliberately throwing them, so they manage to break up parts of them and cause mechanical weathering.
KE = 1/2 * m * v^2
KE = 1/2 * 0.135 * 40^2
KE = 1/2 * 0.135 * 1600
KE = 108 J
Answer:
2.06 m/s
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of linear momentum, the sum of momentum before and after collision are equal. Considering this case where we have frictionless surface, no momentum is lost in the process.
Momentum before collision
Momentum is given by p=mv where m and v represent mass. The initial sum of momentum will be 9v+(27*0.5)=9v+13.5
Momentum after collision
The momentum after collision will be given by (9+27)*0.9=32.4
Relating the two then 9v+13.5=32.4
9v=18.5
V=2.055555555555555555555555555555555555555 m/s
Rounded off, v is approximately 2.06 m/s
