Because the numerator and denominator of a conversion factor are equal, multiplying any quantity by a conversion factor is equivalent to multiplying by the number 1 and so does not change the intrinsic value of the quantity
Answer:
Gravity drives all mass wasting.
Explanation:
Mass wasting can be defined as the process of wasting away of earth's outer crust. This movement is also known as slope movement that causes large rock, soil, and debris to move downward, a force driven by gravity.
The term is often used interchangeably with landslide yet it is different. It is also known as mass movement as is cause massive downslope movement of rock, regolith, snow, ice, and-the-like on the earth's outer crust.
<u>All these movements are driven mainly by gravity. Gravity consantly tries to pull the rocks and soil down the slope but the resisting power. also known as shear strength, of moutains helps them to deny the gravitional force.</u>
Thus from the given options the statement that can be said to be true about mass wasting is that mass wasting is driven by gravity. So, the correct option is C.
In nuclear fission heavier elements are split to make lighter elements whilst releasing energy. An atom, its nucleus to be more specific, is bombarded with neutrons. The nucleus becomes unstable and it starts to split/decay. It creates the fusion products. Neutrons and lighter elements are released; the neutrons from the nuclei of the atom(s) being split.
First blank is: Half-Life
Second Blank is: decay into its products
Answer:
Zinc
Explanation:
The specific heat capacity can be described as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degrees Celsius. It is represented by C or S. The greater the carrying capacity of a substance, the more will be the heat required for that substance.
As we can see in the information given in the question, the specific heat capacity of zinc is the lowest as compared to steel, water and aluminium. Hence, zinc is the correct option.
