Why does water break apart rock when it freezes?

Physics
2 answers:
MA_775_DIABLO [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Water expands when frozen and physically forces the rock apart. When water falls into rock cracks and freezes, As water expands on freezing it puts pressure on the walls of the rock deepening the crack and breaking it.

Would you expect to observe every supernova in our own Galaxy? Why or why not?
Taya2010 [7]

Explanation:

Only few supernova are observed in our galaxy -

Type II supernovae ( i.e. the explosions of the massive stars ) occurred in the Milky Way, and they might be hidden by the intervening dust if they are located in the more distant parts of our Galaxy .

Type Ia supernovae , which need a white dwarf star in the binary star system , are brighter than the type II supernovae , but some of them could also happen in the older parts of Galaxy which are hidden due to the buildup of the dust and gas .

Is it proper to use an infinitely long cylinder model when finding the temperatures near the bottom or top surfaces of a cylinde
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

No, it is not proper to use an infinitely long cylinder model when finding the temperatures near the bottom or top surfaces of a cylinder.

Explanation:

A cylinder is said to be infinitely long when is of a sufficient length. Also, when the diameter of the cylinder is relatively small compared to the length, it is called infinitely long cylinder.

Cylindrical rods can also be treated as infinitely long when dealing with heat transfers at locations far from the top or bottom surfaces. However, it not proper to treat the cylinder as being infinitely long when:

* When the diameter and length are comparable (i.e have the same measurement)

When finding the temperatures near the bottom or top of a cylinder, it is NOT PROPER TO USE AN INFINITELY LONG CYLINDER because heat transfer at those locations can be two-dimensional.

Therefore, the answer to the question is NO, since it is not proper to use an infinitely long cylinder when finding temperatures near the bottom or top of a cylinder.

Define moment of momentum. at which condition is it's magnitude zero?​
ololo11 [35]

Let's start with the concept of momentum. What is it? Linear momentum in physics is mathematically written as a product of mass and velocity of an object. Now let us suppose a body of mass m is moving in an inertial frame of reference with velocity v. Consider the fact that no external force is acting on the system. The momentum of this body is given by mv, where m is the mass and v is its velocity. In case of simple real world problems not delving into the realms of relativity, mass is a conserved quantity and it cannot be zero. Hence the velocity of the body must be zero and hence the momentum.

However, photons are considered to have a rest mass zero.

However note the point carefully "rest mass". A body in motion cannot have mass to be zero.
