How does weathering produce soil

ladessa [460]

Answer:Respiration of carbon dioxide by plant roots can lead to the formation of carbonic acid which can chemically attack rocks and sediments and help to turn them into soils. There are a whole range of weathering processes at work near the surface of the soil, acting together to break down rocks and minerals to form soil.

I hope this is helpful

A wagon wheel consists of 8 spokes of uniform diameter, each of mass ms and length L cm. The outer ring has a mass mring. What i

just olya [345]

Answer:

The moment of inertial of the wheel, $I = 8(\frac{1}{3}M_sL^2 ) + M_rL^2$

Explanation:

Given;

8 spokes of uniform diameter

mass of each spoke, = $M_s$

length of each spoke, = L

mass of outer ring, = $M_r$

The moment of inertial of the wheel will be calculated as;

$I = 8I_{spoke} + I_{ring}$

where;

$I_{spoke$ is the moment of inertia of each spoke

$I_{ring$ is the moment of inertia of the rim

Moment of inertia of each spoke $=\frac{1}{3}M_sL^2$

Moment of inertial of the wheel

$I = 8(\frac{1}{3}M_sL^2 ) + M_rL^2$

To understand how to find the velocities of objects after a collision.

trasher [3.6K]

There are some information missing on Part D: Let the mass of object 1 be m and the mass of object 2 be 3m. If the collision is perfectly inelastic, what are the velocities of the two objects after the collision? Give the velocity v_1 of object one, followed by object v_2 of object two, separated by a comma. Express each velocity in terms of v.

Answer: Part A: v_1 = 0; v_2 = v

Part B: v_1 = v_2 = $\frac{v}{2}$

Part C: v_1 = $\frac{v}{3}$ ; v_2 = $\frac{4v}{3}$

Part D: v_1 = v_2 = $\frac{v}{4}$

Explanation: In elastic collisions, there no loss of kinetic energy and momentum is conserved. Momentum is determined as p = m.v and kinetic energy as K = $\frac{1}{2}$ m. $v^{2}$

Conserved means that the amount of initial momentum is equal to the amount of final momentum:

$m_{1}$ . $v_{1i}$ + $m_{2}$ . $v_{2i}$ = $m_{1}.v_{1f} + m_{2}.v_{2f}$

No loss of energy means that initial kinietc energy is the same as the final kinetic energy:

$\frac{1}{2}(m_{1}.v_{1i} + m_{2}.v_{2i}) = \frac{1}{2} (m_{1}.v_{1f} + m_{2}.v_{2f} )$

To determine the final velocities of each object, there are 2 variables and two equations, so working those equations, the result is:

$v_{2f} = \frac{2.m_{1} } {m_{1} + m_{2} }.v_{1i} + \frac{(m_{2} - m_{1})}{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{2i}$

$v_{1f} = \frac{m_{2} - m_{1} }{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{1i} + \frac{2.m_{2} }{m_{1} + m_{2} } .v_{2i}$

For all the collisions, object 2 is static, i.e. $v_{2i}$ = 0

Part A: Both objects have the same mass (m), $v_{1i}$ = v and collision is elastic:

v_1 = $\frac{m_{2} - m_{1}}{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{1i}$

v_1 = 0

v_2 = $\frac{2.m_{1} }{m_{1} + m_{2}}.v_{1i}$

v_2 = $\frac{2.m}{m+m}.v$

v_2 = v

When the masses are the same and there is an object at rest, the object in movement stops and the object at rest has the same same velocity as the object who hit it.

Part B: Same mass but collision is inelastic: An inelastic collision means that after it happens, the two objects has the same final velocity, then:

$m_{1}$ . $v_{1i}$ + $m_{2}$ . $v_{2i}$ = $m_{1}.v_{1f} + m_{2}.v_{2f}$

$m_{1}.v_{1i} = (m_{1}+m_{2}).v_{f}$
