What factors does not influence the rate of chemical weathering?

Physics
1 answer:
Svetradugi [14.3K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Exposure to the Atmosphere

Composition of Rock

Surface area of the rock

Climate

Time

Explanation:

Exposure to the Atmosphere - how much of the rock mass is exposed to the environment affects how quickly the rock will be weathered by that very environment

Composition of Rock - what kind of minerals the rock is made of, how easy it is for those minerals to disintegrate and how quickly the react with water and air.

Surface area of the rock - a rick that has a wider surface or smaller pieces is more exposed than one that is a lump. A larger surface area increases the rate of weathering

Climate - if a rock is an area where there are high temperatures or very low temperatures, the rate of weathering is likely to increase. A similar point can be made about a region that experiences a lot of rain.

Time - the longer the rock is exposed to harsh conditions, the more it will experience weathering

pressure A vertical piston cylinder device contains a gas at an unknown pressure. If the outside pressure is 100 kPa, determine
ycow [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

When Cylinder is vertical Let gas pressure inside is P_1 and atmospheric Pressure be

P_0=100 KPa

Area of Piston A=0.2 m^2

mass of Piston m=20 kg

from FBD

mg+P_0A=P_1A

P_1=P_0+\frac{mg}{A}

P_1=100+\frac{20\times 9.8}{0.2}

P_1=100+0.98

P_1=100.98 KPa

(b)If cylinder is upside down

From FBD

mg+P_2A=P_0A

P_2=-\frac{mg}{A}+P_0

P_2=100-\frac{20\times 9.8}{0.2}

P_2=100-0.98=99.02 KPa

Kendall has empty graduated cylinder with markings and an identical graduated cylinder partway filled with water. She also has a
Elis [28]
The answer is B.
She can measure the mass of the water, marble and the graduated cylinder with the balance.
The volume of the water can be shown on the marked graduated cylinder, the volume of the marble can be measured by the volume difference of the water before and after the marble is put in.

A river flows due east at 1.70 m/s. A boat crosses the river from the south shore to the north shore by maintaining a constant v
ad-work [718]

Answer:

a)

v = 14.1028 m/s  

∅ = 83.0765° north of east

b)

the required distance is 40.98 m

Explanation:

Given that;

velocity of the river u = 1.70 m/s

velocity of boat v = 14.0 m/s

Now to get the velocity of the boat relative to shore;

( north of east), we say

a² + b² = c²

(1.70)² + (14.0)² = c²

2.89 + 196 = c²

198.89 = c²

c = √198.89

c = 14.1028 m/s  

tan∅ = v/u = 14 / 1.7 =  8.23529

∅ = tan⁻¹ ( 8.23529 ) = 83.0765° north of east

Therefore, the velocity of the boat relative to shore is;

v = 14.1028 m/s  

∅ = 83.0765° north of east

b)  

width of river = 340 m,

ow far downstream has the boat moved by the time it reaches the north shore in meters = ?

we say;

340sin( 90° - 83.0765°)

⇒ 340sin( 6.9235°)

= 40.98 m

Therefore, the required distance is 40.98 m

An object dropped from rest from the top of a tall building on planet x falls a distance d(t)18 left parenthesis t right parenth
melamori03 [73]

displacement is given by equation

d = 18t^2

now at t = 5 s the position is

d_1 = 18 *5^2 = 450 m

similarly position at t = 9 s

d_2 = 18*9^2 = 1458 m

so the displacement of object in given interval of time will be

d = 1458 - 450 = 1008 m

time interval

\delta t = 9 - 5 = 4 s

now the average velocity will be given as

v = \frac{\delta x}{\delta t}

v = \frac{1008}{4} = 252 m/s

so its average speed is 252 m/s
