<h2>Answer: higher mean annual rainfall and temperatures. </h2>

Explanation:

Chemical weathering is the set of destructive processes through which rocky materials go trhough. These processes cause changes in the color, texture, composition, firmness and shape of the material.

It should be noted that this happens when the rocks come into contact with atmospheric agents such as oxygen and carbon dioxide.

Another important aspect is that rocks are able to break up more easily thanks to this type of weathering, since the mineral grains within the rock lose adherence and dissolve better under the action of some physical agents, such as humidity (rainfall included) and temperature.

Therefore:

Chemical weathering is greatest under conditions of higher mean annual rainfall and temperatures.

A frog is at the bottom of a 17-foot well. Each time the frog leaps, it moves up 3 feet. If the frog has not reached the top of

docker41 [41]

Answer:

The frog takes 8 jumps to reach top of well

Explanation:

Given data

Frog at bottom=17 foot

Each time frog leaps 3 feet

Frog has not reached the top of the well, then the frog slides back 1 foot

To Find

Total number of leaps the frog needed to escape from well

Solution

in 1 jump distance jumped=3+(-1)

=2 feet

=2×1 feet

The "-1" is because the frog goes back

Now After 2 jumps the distance jumped as:

Distance Jumped=2+2

Distance Jumped=2*2

=4 feet

Similarly after 7 jumps

Distance Jumped=2+2+......+2

Distance Jumped=2*7

=14 feet

Now after 8th jump the frog climbs but doesnot slide back as it is reached to the top of well.

Distance Jumped=(Distance Jumped after 7 jumps)+3

=14+3

=17 feet

The frog takes 8 jumps to reach top of well

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 3 kg ball kicked into the air at a height of 5 meters?

sladkih [1.3K]

formula for gravitational P.E =mgh

Solution:-mass=3kg height=5metre and gravity=9.8 or 10m/sec² so P.E=mgh , 3×9.8×5=147kgm²/sec²

According to a college survey, 22% of all students work full time. find the mean for the number of 3) students who work full tim

attashe74 [19]

Assuming that the students worldwide are being considered, because of the extremely large population, this can be considered as a binomial distribution. A normal distribution is used most usually as a fair approximation of the binomial. The mean is the expectation, therefore:
E[x] = np = (16)(0.22) = 3.52
μ = 3.52
