Why are some rocks smooth and others rough?

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

gogolik [260]

Answer:

Explanation:

still water speed is 50 m / 25.0 s = 2.00 m/s or 200 cm/s

In lane 1 the effective speed would be 201.2 cm/s

5000 cm / 201.2 cm/s = 24.85 s

The change is 25.00 - 24.85 = 0.15 s decrease in time

In lane 8, the effective speed would be 198.8 cm/s

5000 cm / 198.8 cm/s = 25.15 s

The change is 25.00 - 25.15 = 0.15 s increase in time

if a tank filled with water contains a block and the height of the water above point A within the block is 0.6meter, what's the
Fittoniya [83]
The pressure exerted by a fluid solely relies on the depth or height of the fluid, its density, and the gravitational constant. These three are related in the equation:

Pressure = density x g x height

In the problem, point A is within the block inside the tank. The water above the block is assumed to be 0.6 meters. This gives a point A pressure of:

P = 1000 kg/m^3 * 9.81 m/s^2 * 0.6 m = 5,886 Pa or 5.88KPa

An object of mass m travels along the parabola yequalsx squared with a constant speed of 5 ​units/sec. What is the force on the
Dmitriy789 [7]

Explanation:

The object is moving along the parabola y = x² and is at the point (√2, 2).  Because the object is changing directions, it has a centripetal acceleration towards the center of the circle of curvature.

First, we need to find the radius of curvature.  This is given by the equation:

R = [1 + (y')²]^(³/₂) / |y"|

y' = 2x and y" = 2:

R = [1 + (2x)²]^(³/₂) / |2|

R = (1 + 4x²)^(³/₂) / 2

At x = √2:

R = (1 + 4(√2)²)^(³/₂) / 2

R = (9)^(³/₂) / 2

R = 27 / 2

R = 13.5

So the centripetal force is:

F = m v² / r

F = m (5)² / 13.5

F = 1.85 m

Ted lifts a 10N weight at a height of 1.5 m in 1
masha68 [24]

Answer:

D. Ted expanded more power.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

For Ted.

Force = 10N

Height = 1.5m

Time = 1 seconds

To find Ted's power;

Power = workdone/time

But workdone = force * distance

Workdone = 10 * 1.5

Workdone = 15 Nm

Power = 15/1

Power = 15 Watts.

For Johnny.

Force = 10N

Height = 1.5m

Time = 2 seconds

To find Ted's power;

Power = workdone/time

But workdone = force * distance

Workdone = 10 * 1.5

Workdone = 15 Nm

Power = 15/2

Power = 7.5 Watts

Therefore, from the calculations we can deduce and conclude that Ted expanded more power.
