Which of the following is an example of biological weathering

Physics
1 answer:
7nadin3 [17]3 years ago
3 0

An example of biological weathering is the widening of gaps in rocks caused by tree roots since pressure or stress is exerted on the rocks due to the growing plant roots. The pressure is exerted by a biological process (i.e., growing roots), even though the process is physical.

 

Plants and animals and its action speeds up mechanical and or chemical weathering, which in turn causes biological weathering.

 

<span>With the help of the chemicals that are produced by the tiniest bacteria, algae and liches, the rocks which they live in are also broken down by them in order to get the nutrients they need.</span>

The train departed 100 meters in 10 seconds How far has the train gone in the last 2 seconds
zzz [600]

Answer:

20 meters.

Explanation:

Since it went 100 meters in 10 seconds, that means it is going 10 meters per second. In 2 seconds, it must have gone 20 meters, if the speed is constant.

What is the heat flux (W/m^2), due to radiation heat transfer, from a black body if the surface temperature is 1000C? The convec
12345 [234]

Answer:

55000 W/m²

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Surface temperature, T = 1000°C

Hear transfer coefficient, h = 55 W/m²C

Convection heat transfer coefficient is given as:

h = Heat flux/Temperature

Hence, Heat Flux, q, is given as:

q = h * T

q = 55 * 1000 = 55000 W/m²C

A proposed ocean thermal-energy conversion (OTEC) system is a heat engine that would operate between warm water (16°C) at the oc
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

3.46 %

Explanation:

We have given cooler temperature that is T_c = 6°C =273+6=279 K

And the warm temperature of water that is T_h=16^{\circ}C=16+273=289\ K

The maximum possible efficiency is given by \eta =1-\frac{T_c}{T_h}

So maximum efficiency \eta =1-\frac{T_c}{T_h}=1-\frac{279}{289}=0.0346=3.46 %

Which most likely indicate a chemical change has occurred ?
Allushta [10]
If a new substance suddenly appears that wasn't there originally,
then a chemical change has occurred.

Like for example, (this is the only example I can think of right now):

-- You leave your bicycle outside in the rain, and it gets wet, and
a few days later there's some rust on it.

-- You scrape off some of the rust, take it to school, give it to the
Chemistry teacher, and ask her to analyze it and tell you what it
is.  Later that day, she tells you it's a substance called "Iron oxide".

-- Where did that come from ?  There was no iron oxide there.
There was only iron in the bicycle, and air, and water.

-- The iron oxide formed from a chemical change when the iron
on the surface of the bike combined with some of the oxygen in
the air, and molecules of a new substance were created.  (For
some reason, the presence of water makes this chemical reaction
go faster.)
