A) use v=u+at for both

First section, v=27, u=0, a=2.4. You should get 11seconds.
Second section, v=0, u=27, a=-1.3. You should get 21seconds.
This means that the total time is 22seconds.

b) You can either use s=ut+0.5at^2 or v^2=u^2+2as. Personally, I would use the second one as you are not relying on your previous answer.

First section, v=27, u=0, a=2.4. You should get 152m.
Second section, v=0, u=27, a=-1.3. You should get 280m.
This makes your overall displacement 432m.

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

2. mechanical weathering can produce smaller pieces of rock that have more surface area for chemical weathering to work Explanation:

Mechanical weathering involves activities of living organisms or some geological processes. The bigger rocks are usually reduced to smaller rocks and further reduction might be limited or not posibble mechanically. This reduced rocks now increases the surface area available for chemical weathering; which further reduces the sizes of the rocks below the size range of mechanical weathering. one will recall that the rate of chemical reaction increases with exposed surface area.

Which switch configuration creates a short circuit?
lara31 [8.8K]
I think the answer would be Switch 1 open; switches 2, 3, and 4 closed. It is letter D. This will happen when there is a low resistance and a high circuit so from the choices above, when two bulbs are open and one bulb is close, so there is a low resistance and high voltage.
