What step of the rock cycle happens as the sea stacks are broken down

Just like the water cycle, rocks undergo changes of form in a rock cycle. A metamorphic rock can become an igneous rock, or a sedimentary rock can become a metamorphic one. Unlike the water cycle, you can’t see the process happening on a day-to-day basis. Rocks change very slowly under normal conditions, but sometimes catastrophic events like a volcanic eruption or a flood can speed up the process. So what are the three types of rocks, and how do they change into each other? Keep reading to find out!

In an experiment, a disk is set into motion such that it rotates with a constant angular speed. As the disk spins, a small spher

Answer:

L₀ = L_f , K_f < K₀

Explanation:

For this exercise we start as the angular momentum, with the friction force they are negligible and if we define the system as formed by the disk and the clay sphere, the forces during the collision are internal and therefore the angular momentum is conserved.

This means that the angular momentum before and after the collision changes.

Initial instant. Before the crash

L₀ = I₀ w₀

Final moment. Right after the crash

L_f = (I₀ + mr²) w

we treat the clay sphere as a point particle

how the angular momentum is conserved

L₀ = L_f

I₀ w₀ = (I₀ + mr²) w

w = $\frac{I_o}{I_o + m r^2}$ w₀

having the angular velocities we can calculate the kinetic energy

starting point. Before the crash

K₀ = ½ I₀ w₀²

final point. After the crash

K_f = ½ (I₀ + mr²) w²

sustitute

K_f = ½ (I₀ + mr²) ( $\frac{I_o}{I_o + m r^2}$ w₀)²

Kf = ½ $\frac{I_o^2}{ I_o + m r^2}$ w₀²

we look for the relationship between the kinetic energy

$\frac{K_f}{K_o}$ = $\frac{I_o}{I_o + m r^2}$

$\frac{K_f}{K_o } < 1$

K_f < K₀

we see that the kinetic energy is not constant in the process, this implies that part of the energy is transformed into potential energy during the collision

Why do we feel the effects of gravity given that the gravitational force is so weak?

almond37 [142]

Any two objects in the universe attract each other. Gravity is the force exerted by earth on you (you exert the same force on earth) but due to the fact that earth has a huge mass compared to yours, you will be attracted to earth only by a small gravitational force.

Suppose that a certain battery produces a voltage of 1.55V without a load connected (open circuit) and a current of 500mA when s

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the internal resistance be r .

Since in open circuit the volt is 1.55 V , this will be the source voltage .

Source voltage = 1.55

If external resistance be R .

1.55 / (R + r ) = .500

R + r = 3.1 ohm

So sum of internal resistance and external resistance will be 3.1 ohm.
