Why are some rocks smooth and others rough?

Physics
1 answer:
klemol [59]3 years ago

It all depends on where the rock was found or former, often rocks in the ocean are smoother due to the strong currents over time while on land rocks tend to be rough but yet again it all depends on the location

What distance does electromagnetic radiation travel in 55.0 μs ?
Komok [63]
Electromagnetic radiation is an energy that is known as light. so electromagnetic radiation will have the same speed as the speed of light which is 3 x 10^8 m/s. so the distance it travel at 55 x 10^-6 s is:
D = ( 3 x 10^8 m/s ) (  55 x 10^-6 s )
D = 16500 m

An aerobatic airplane pilot experiences weightlessness as she passes over the top of a loop-the-loop maneuver. The acceleration
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The radius of the loop is  20.66 km

Explanation:

let the radius of the loop be r

mass of airplane is m

At the top, the pilot experiences two radial forces, which are

1) Gravitational force is  mg

2) Centrifugal forces mv²/r out of the center

When the pilot experiences no weight,

then, mg = mv²/r

r = v² / g

 = 450² / 9.8

 = 20.66 x 10³3

 = 20.66 km

Two mirrors are touching so they have an angle of 35.4 degrees with one another. A light ray is incident on the first at an angl
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

54.6°

Explanation:

From law of reflection i=r.

So, construct the reflected ray at 55.7°degrees from the normal and let it fall on the other mirror.  

Now draw the second normal at the point of incidence and again measure the angle of incidence, and draw the angle of reflection.

If you consider triangle AOB, one angle is ∠AOB=90°

 and ∠OAB is 54.6°

 

From angle sum property third angle ie ∠ABO=180°-90°-54.6°=35.4°

 

So, the second incident angle will be 54.6°

Hence, the second reflected angle will be 54.6 degrees.

A 1.50 kg rock is thrown up into the air from ground level, reaches a maximum height of 7.00 m, then returns to the ground. Calc
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

17.565 kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum = mass × velocity

I = mv..................... Equation 1

But we can calculate the value of v  using the equation of motion under gravity.

v² =  u²+2gs............. Equation 2

Where u = initial velocity, s = maximum heigth, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: u = 0 m/s (at the maximum heigth), s = 7.0 m.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 2

v² = 0²+ 2×7×9.8

v² = 137.2

v = √137.2

v = 11.71 m/s.

Also given: m = 1.50 kg

substitute these values into equation 1

Therefore,

I = 1.5×11.71

I = 17.565 kgm/s
