Answer:

D. Salt Weathering

Explanation:

Salt weathering is defined as a geomorphic process resulting in the physical disintegration of rocks or stones and in the fretting of their surfaces. Often you tend to find the best examples of salt weathering in dessert areas and coastal areas. You can find three distinct types of weathering which are biological weathering, physical weathering, and chemical weathering.

A subway train accelerates from rest at one station at a rate of 1.30 m/s^2 for half of the distance to the next station, then d

Minchanka [31]

This problems a perfect application for this acceleration formula:

   Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)² .

During the speeding-up half:   1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²
During the slowing-down half: 1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²

Pick either half, and divide each side by 0.65 m/s²:

   T² = (1600 m) / (0.65 m/s²)

   T = square root of (1600 / 0.65) seconds

Time for the total trip between the stations is double that time.

   T = 2 √(1600/0.65) = <em>99.2 seconds</em> (rounded)

Lesson 11: electricity & magnetism unit test physical science b unit 5: electricity and magnetism (connexus)

vovikov84 [41]

Electricity and magnetism can be considered as part of the same phenomenon because both are generated by electromagnetic forces.

<h3>What is electricity?</h3>

Electricity is the movement or flow of negatively charged electrons through a suitable conductor where a charge is applied.

Moreover, magnetism is a natural phenomenon caused by the generation/movement of electric charges.

In conclusion, electricity and magnetism can be considered as part of the same phenomenon because both are generated by electromagnetic forces.

An example of when total internal reflection occurs is when all the light passing from a region of higher index of refraction to

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

is reflected back into the region of higher index

Explanation:

Total internal reflection is a phenomenon that occurs when all the light passing from a region of higher index of refraction to a region of lower index is reflected back into the region of higher index.

According to Snell's law, refraction of ligth is described by the equation

$n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2$

where

n1 is the refractive index of the first medium

n2 is the refractive index of the second medium

$\theta_1$ is the angle of incidence (in the first medium)

$\theta_2$ is the angle of refraction (in the second medium)

Let's now consider a situation in which

$n_1 > n_2$

so light is moving from a medium with higher index to a medium with lower index. We can re-write the equation as

$sin \theta_2 = \frac{n_1}{n_2}sin \theta_1$

Where $\frac{n_1}{n_2}$ is a number greater than 1. This means that above a certain value of the angle of incidence $\theta_1$ , the term on the right can become greater than 1. So this would mean

$sin \theta_2 > 1$

But this is not possible (the sine cannot be larger than 1), so no refraction occurs in this case, and all the light is reflected back into the initial medium (total internal reflection). The value of the angle of incidence above which this phenomen occurs is called critical angle, and it is given by

$\theta_c =sin^{-1}(\frac{n_2}{n_1})$
