Answer:

A. Chemical weathering

Explanation:

The major process responsible for the formation of the cave is called chemical weathering.

So what is weathering and what are the types?

  • Weathering is the physical disintegration  and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils.
  • Physical weathering is  the mechanical breakdown of rocks.
  • Chemical weathering is the decomposition of rocks through chemical action.

Limestone is made up of calcium carbonate. It reacts with weak carbonic acid to form a solution which carves out a cave in the rock body.

An eagle carrying a trout flies above a lake along a horizontal path. The eagle drops the trout from a height of 6.1 m. The fish
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

7.1 m/s

Explanation:

First, find the time it takes for the fish to reach the water.

Given in the y direction:

Δy = 6.1 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

6.1 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.12 s

Next, find the velocity needed to travel 7.9 m in that time.

Given in the x direction:

Δx = 7.9 m

a = 0 m/s²

t = 1.12 s

Find: v₀

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

7.9 m = v₀ (1.12 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.12 s)²

v₀ = 7.1 m/s

When a charge moves between
Olin [163]

Answer:

+ 0.07 C

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Potential difference (V) = 12 V

Energy (E) = 0.418 J

Charge (Q) =?

The energy (E) , potential difference (V) and charge (Q) are related by the following equation:

E = ½QV

With the above formula, we can obtain the charge as follow:

Potential difference (V) = 12 V

Energy (E) = 0.418 J

Charge (Q) =?

E = ½QV

0.418 = ½ × Q × 12

0.418 = Q × 6

Divide both side by 6

Q = 0.418 / 6

Q = + 0.07 C
