Answer:

The answer is "Option C".

Explanation:

Wedging Freeze is generated by repeated freezing. Freeze wedging occurs, whenever the water is turned into ice as a result of the 9 percent expansion. When it freezes, cracks full of water are forced to separate further. and other options are incorrect, that can be described as follows:

  • In option A, It is a state where the element converts into a liquid, that's why it is not correct.
  • In option B, It is a reaction in which the bonds of water is divided into particular substance, that's why it is not correct.
  • In option D, It is a form of mechanical or physical rock weathering, that's it is not correct.

Answer

C. frost wedging.

Explanation:

  • The honey-comb-like structure formed on the sand stone is the result of stresses due to frost wedging in the sandstone.
  • As we know that the microscopic structure of snow is hexagonal and similar is the pattern being discussed here for a honeycomb.

Frost wedging is the process of wearing of rocks by the repeated cycles of freezing and melting of water in the porous cavities of the sandstone.

Due to anomalous expansion of water on freezing it exerts stress on the inner surfaces of the space it occupies in the porosity.

  • As we know that the structure of the molecular bonds is arranged in a cage-like structure of ice which wears out the particles of the rock leaving a honeycomb structured impression due to the stresses.

At this radius, what is the magnitude of the net force that maintains circular motion exerted on the pilot by the seat belts, th
Ainat [17]

Answer:

Fc=5253 N

Explanation:

Answer:

Fc=5253 N

Explanation:

sequel to the question given, this question would have taken precedence:

"The 86.0 kg pilot does not want the centripetal acceleration to exceed 6.23 times free-fall acceleration. a) Find the minimum radius of the plane’s path. Answer in units of m."

so we derive centripetal acceleration first

ac (centripetal acceleration) = v^2/r

make r the subject of the equation

r= v^2/ac

 ac is 6.23*g which is 9.81

v is 101m/s

substituing the parameters into the equation, to get the radius

(101^2)/(6.23*9.81) = 167m

Now for part

( b) there are two forces namely, the centripetal and the weight of the pilot, but the seat is exerting the same force back due to newtons third law.

he net force that maintains circular motion exerted on the pilot by the seat belts, the friction against the seat, and so forth is the centripetal force.

Fc (Centripetal Force) = m*v^2/r  

So (86kg* 101^2)/(167) =

Fc=5253 N

A car’s tire rotates 5.25 times in 3 seconds. What is the tangential velocity of the tire?
Lena [83]

The tangential velocity of the car's tire is the product of the angular velocity and radius of the car's tire which is 11(r) m/s.

<h3>Angular velocity of the tire</h3>

The angular velocity of the tire is the rate of change of angular displacement of the tire with time.

The magnitude of the angular velocity of the tire is calculated as follows;

ω = 2πN

where;

  • N is the number of revolutions per second

ω = 2π x (5.25 / 3)

ω =  11 rad/s

<h3>Tangential velocity of the tire</h3>

The tangential velocity of the car's tire is the product of the angular velocity and radius of the car's tire.

The magnitude of the tangential velocity is caculated as follows;

v = ωr

where;

  • r is the radius of the car's tire

v = 11r m/s
