solmaris [256]3 years ago

The correct answers are:

B. plant growth;

C. animal actions;

The mechanical weathering is a type of weathering where physical force is included into the breaking up of the rocks. The plants and the animals are both causing this type of weathering with their actions. The plants can cause mechanical weathering with their roots, as they grow and surround a rock, they are able to create such a pressure that they can break the rock apart. Also, as their trunks are getting bigger, if there's rocks right next to them, the pressure from the growing of the trunk will crack the rocks. The animals are able to move the rocks, as well as pushing them, or even deliberately throwing them, so they manage to break up parts of them and cause mechanical weathering.

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

 E = 1,873 10³ N / C

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Gauss's law

        Ф = E. dA = q_{int} / ε₀

Where q_{int} is the charge inside an artificial surface that surrounds the charged body, in this case with the body it has a spherical shape, the Gaussian surface is a wait with radius r = 1.35 m that is greater than the radius of the sphere.

The field lines of the sphere are parallel to the radii of the Gaussian surface so the scald product is reduced to the algebraic product.

        The surface of a sphere is

             A = 4π r²

             E 4π r² = q_{int} /ε₀

  The net charge within the Gauussian surface is the charge in the sphere of q1 = + 530 10⁻⁹ C and the point charge in the center q2 = -200 10⁻⁹ C, since all the charge can be considered in the center the net charge is

           q_{int} = q₁ + q₂

           q_{int} = (530 - 200) 10⁻⁹

           q_{int} = 330 10⁻⁹ C

The electric field is

             E = 1 / 4πε₀   q_{int} / r²

            k = 1 / 4πε₀

            E = k q_{int}/ r²

Let's calculate

           E = 8.99 10⁹   330 10⁻⁹/ 1.32²

           E = 1,873 10³ N / C

Una barra de plata de 335.2 g con una temperatura de 100 ºC se introduce un calorímetro de aluminio de 60 g de masa que contiene
sdas [7]

Respuesta:

0,0560 cal / gºC.

Explicación:

Cantidad de calor; (Q)

Q = mcΔt; Δt = t2 - t1

m = masa, c = capacidad calorífica específica; Δt = cambio de temperatura

c de agua = 1 cal / gºC

c de aluminio = 0,22 cal / gºC

QTotal = Q de agua + Q de aluminio

Q de agua = 450 * 1 * (26 - 23) = 1350 cal

Q de aluminio = 60 * 0.22 * (26 - 23) = 39.6 cal

QTotal = 1350 + 39,6 = 1389,6 cal

Calor perdido = calor ganado

QTotal = calor perdido

- 1389,6 = 335,2 * c * (26 - 100)

-1389,6 = −24804,8 * c

c = 1389,6 / 24804,8

c = 0,056021 cal / gºC.

Capacidad calorífica específica de la plata = 0,0560 cal / gºC.

Velocity vector and acceleration vector in a uniform circular motion are related as.
mr_godi [17]

They are related as \bold{\underline {v}\,.\,\underline a }= \bold{0}

  • In a uniform circular motion, the magnitude of the speed does not change during the travel and only the instantaneous direction changes.
  • This speed is always directed along the tangent to the circle at a given point. (refer to the figure attached)
  • For any circular motion, the must-have acceleration is the centripetal acceleration that is directed towards the centre of the circular locus (if the motion has a tangential acceleration, it has a tangential acceleration additionally).
  • Therefore, both the directions of the tangential speed and the centripetal acceleration are orthogonal to each other (perpendicular: one is 90 degrees apart from the other).
  • In mathematics, 2 vectors (\underline p , \underline q) that are perpendicular to each other have a quality that their dot product (\underline p\,.\, \underline q) equal to zero vector (\bold 0) which is written as \undeline p\,.\, \underline q = \bold 0.
  • This quality can be considered when dealing with the velocity vector and the acceleration vector in a manner \underline v\,.\, \underline a =\bold 0.
