Mechanical weathering is the physical breakdown of rock by environmental factors. This process is always at work, and there are a number of different types of mechanical weathering. Thermal expansion is the tendency for minerals to expand and contract based on temperature.

Answer:Mechanical weathering is actually breaking down of rocks into smaller pieces by natural forces. Any weathering processes that can cause the physical breakdown of rocks without any type of change in the chemical composition of rocks, called mechanical weathering.

Exfoliation: It's a process where the rocks erodes by peeling off in sheets or layer by layer rather than grain by grain.

Explanation:therefore exfoliation will match the answer to your question

Explain how a star's absorption spectrum and the concept of red shift help support the Big Bang Theory.
marta [7]

Answer:

Red shift supports the big bang theory. ... The light from distant galaxies is red shifted (this tells us the galaxies are moving away from us) and the further away the galaxy the greater the red shift (this tells us that the more distant the galaxy the faster it is moving). Constellations look like they are moving because earth is rotating on it's axis.

A train travels 200km/hr. how much distance will the train be from the station in 2.5 hours?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

500km

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed  = 200km/hr

Time taken  = 2.5hrs

Unknown:

Distance  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the speed, time and distance equation.

   Therefore;

  Distance  = Speed x time

So;

  Distance  = 200 x 2.5  = 500km

650 N boy and a 419 N girl sit on a 150 N porch swing that is 2.0 m long. If the swing is supported by a chain at each end, what

The tension in the two chains T1 and T2 is 676.65 N and 542.53 N respectively.

<h3>Principle of moments</h3>

The Principle of Moments states that when a body is in equip, the sum of clockwise moment about a point is equal to the sum of anticlockwise moment about the same point.

The formula for calculating moment is given below:

  • Moment = Force × perpendicular distance from the pivot

<h3>Calculating the tension in the chains</h3>

From the principle of moments:

Let tension in chain 1 be T1 and tension in chain 2 be T2.

T1 + T2 = 150 + 650 + 419

T1 + T2 =1219

Taking all distances from chain 1,

Sum of Moments = 0

419 × 0.5 + 150 × 0.85 + 650 × 0.9 = T2 × 1.7

T2 = 922/17

T2 = 542.35 N

Then, T1 = 1219 - 542.35

T1 = 676.65 N

Therefore, the tension in the two chains T1 and T2 is 676.65 N and 542.53 N respectively.
