Explain how surface and subsurface events are integral parts of the rock cycle.

Physics

vagabundo [1.1K]4 years ago

Example of surface events are erosion and weathering. Erosion is the carrying of a particle from one place to the other and weathering is the breaking down of particles. These processes help in rock formation because this allows physical changes (grouping together or breaking down) on a certain substance. Subsurface events are those which happened underground such as the flow of underground water which subsequently allow the deposition of minerals, etc.

A chair of weight 70.0 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F =
Annette [7]

Answer:

94.67 N

Explanation:

Consider a free body diagram with force, F of 41 N applied at an angle of 37 degrees while the weight acts downwards. Resolving the force into vertical and horizontal components, we obtain a free body diagram attached.

At equilibrium, normal reaction is equal to the sum of the weight and the vertical component of the force applied. Applying the condition of equilibrium along the vertical direction.  

\begin{array}{l}\\\Sigma {F_y} = 0\\\\N - W - F\sin \theta = 0\\\\N = W + F\sin \theta \\\end{array}

Substituting 70 N for W, 41 N for F and \theta for 37 degrees

N=70+41sin37=94.67441595  N and rounding off to 2 decimal places

N=94.67 N

In zoes egg experiment which two forces are balanced to keep it from hitting the pan
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

The forces of push and pull

Explanation:

In the egg drop experiment, the egg is balanced on top of a toilet paper tube and balanced on a pan. The pan itself is placed on top of a glass of water. When the experimenter uses his hands to push the pan, the force of gravity pulls the egg downwards making it move down, right into the glass of water.

So the two forces which are applied in opposite directions are;

1. The force of push applied horizontally by the hand when it pushes the pan away, and

2. The force of pull caused by gravity which makes the egg move vertically downwards.

How does the kinetic energy of particles vary with temperature
Bezzdna [24]
When the average kinetic energy of the molecules go up ( a rise in temperature) the average speed of the molecules increases, the molecules now on average have more kinetic energy .

Which structure controls how much light passes through the specimen
poizon [28]

Answer:

The diaphragm.

Explanation:

A diaphragm is a thin non transparent structure with an aperture at its center. Aperture is the opening in a lens through which light passes to enter the camera. Diaphragm controls the passage of light through specimen. It stops the passage of light except for the light passing through aperture. It also limits the brightness of light reaching the focal plane.

The diaphragm is placed close to the lens, where objects are defocused to the maximum in order to pass every ray from the object through the lens. Diaphragm discards some of those rays but allows multiple rays to move through to produce an image. This means that the size of the aperture controls the amount of light that passes through the lens. The center of the aperture coincides with optical axis of the lens.  Iris diaphragm is an example. It is used in modern cameras.

Fill in the chart below to identify the name of the process that explains the state of change indicated, the states of matter be
yuradex [85]

1.  Changing from solid to a liquid is called melting / fusion and happen

at the melting/ fusion point.

Reason: melting point is a temperature at which a solid melt and converts into liquid by providing heat.

2. Changing from liquid to gas is called evaporation/boiling and happens at the evaporation/boiling point.

Reason. Evaporation is a process in which molecules from surface of liquid convert into gas.

3.   Changing from a gas to a liquid  is called condensation and happens at the condensation point.

Reason : In condensation process  gas particles converts into liquid droplets.

4. Changing from liquid to a solid is called freezing and happens at the freezing point.

Reason : Freezing is a process that convert liquid into soilid state by decreasing temperature of that specific liquid,
