How does the amount of precipitation affect the amount of weathering ?

4vir4ik [10]

Answer: Rainfall and temperature can affect the rate in which rocks weather. High temperatures = more rainfall increasing the rate of chemical weathering. Rocks in tropical regions exposed to a lot of rainfall and hot temperatures weather faster than similar rocks in cold, dry climates.

An 8.00- W resistor is dissipating 100 watts. What are the current through it and the difference of potential across it?

hjlf

Answer:

I= 3.5 amps

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

rating of resistor R= 8 ohms

power P= 100W

Required

The current I

Step two

Yet this power is also given by

$P = I^2R$

make I subject of the formula we have

$I= \sqrt{\frac{P}{R} }$

substitute

$I= \sqrt{\frac{100}{8} }\\\\I=\sqrt{12.5}\\\\I= 3.5 amps$

A ball is thrown upward at time t=0 from the ground with an initial velocity of 8 m/s (~ 18 mph). What is the total time it is i

evablogger [386]

Answer:

The total time it is in the air for the ball is 1.6326 s

Given:

Initial velocity = 8 $\frac{m}{s}$

To find:

the total time it is in the air = ?

Formula used:

t = $\frac{v-u}{a}$

Where t = time to reach maximum height

v = final velocity of the ball = 0 m/s

u = initial velocity of ball = 8 m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8

Acceleration of gravity is taken as negative because ball is moving in opposite direction.

Solution:

A ball is thrown upward at time t=0 from the ground with an initial velocity of 8 m/s.

The time taken by the ball to reach the maximum height is given by,

t = $\frac{v-u}{a}$

Where t = time to reach maximum height

v = final velocity of the ball = 0 m/s

u = initial velocity of ball = 8 m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8

Acceleration of gravity is taken as negative because ball is moving in opposite direction.

t = $\frac{0-8}{-9.8}$

t = 0.8163 s

Thus, time taken by the ball to reach the ground again = time taken to reach maximum height

So, Total time required for ball to reach ground = 2t = 2 × 0.8163

Total time required for ball to reach ground = 1.6326 s

The total time it is in the air for the ball is 1.6326 s

Joan stirred a pot of hot soup with a metal spoon. after a minute or two, the handle of the spoon became too hot to hold. what k

natima [27]

When the metal spoon comes in contact with the hot soup, heat transfer from hot soup to the spoon because of difference in temperature of the two. The kind of heat transfer represented here is conduction. In conduction, heat is transferred from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature when there is a physical contact between the two.

Which energy changes take place when a pedalling cyclist uses a generator (dynamo) to light his bicycle lamp?

Elina [12.6K]

Answer: chemical → kinetic → electrical → light

Explanation: At the same time when the generator lights up the bicycle lamp the lamp lights up using electrical energy so mechanical energy is also transformed into electrical energy.
