Sound or Soundwaves travel through mediums by vibrating molecules. Sound waves mediums can often travel through gas, liquid, and solid. Compared to liquids, solids seem to travel better because the molecules that make up the matter are packed tightly.

A 16.5-kg crate starts at rest at the top of a 60.0° incline. The coefficients of friction are μs = 0.400 and μk = 0.300. The cr

Answer:

t = 1.62 s

Explanation:

given,

mass of the block m₁ = 16.5 Kg

m₂ = 8 Kg

angle of inclination = 60°

μs = 0.400 and μk = 0.300

time to slide 2 m = ?

a) let a is the acceleration of the block m₁ downward.

Net force acting on m₂,

F₂ = T - m₂ g

m₂a = T - m₂ g

a = \dfrac{T}{m_2} - g.......(1)

net force acting on m₁

F₁ = m₁g sin(60°) - μ_k m₁g cos (60°) - T

m₁ a = m₁g sin(60°) - μ_k m₁g cos (60°) - T

a = g sin(60^0) - \mu_k g cos (60^0) - \dfrac{T}{m_1}.........(2)

from equations 1 and 2

\dfrac{T}{m_2} - g = g sin(60^0) - \mu_k g cos (60^0) - \dfrac{T}{m_1}

\dfrac{T}{m_2} +\dfrac{T}{m_1} = g+ g sin(60^0) - \mu_k g cos (60^0)

 T\dfrac{m_1+m_2}{m_2\times m_1} = g+ g sin(60^0) - \mu_k g cos (60^0)

 T = \dfrac{g+ g sin(60^0) - \mu_k g cos (60^0)}{\dfrac{m_1+m_2}{m_2\times m_1}}

 T = {m_2\times m_1}\dfrac{g+ g sin(60^0) - \mu_k g cos (60^0)}{{m_1+m_2}}  

T = {16.5\times 8}\dfrac{9.8 + 9.8 sin(60^0) - 0.3\times 9.8 cos (60^0)}{{16.5+8}}

T = 90.61 N

from equation (1)

a = \dfrac{90.61}{8} - 9.8.......(1)

a = 1.52 m/s²

let t is the time taken

Apply,

d = ut + 0.5 a t²

2 = 0 + 0.5 x 1.52 x t²

t = \sqrt{2.63}

t = 1.62 s

Which contribute to both chemical and mechanical weathering? Check all that apply.
larisa86 [58]

organisms and water

Explanation:

Organisms and water contribute to both chemical and mechanical weathering  . A form of weathering known as biological weathering is a derivative of both chemical and physical weathering.

  • Weathering is the physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils.
  • Organisms are pivotal to both physical disintegration of rocks through their activities.
  • Through their metabolic activities, they also releases chemicals that are used for chemical weathering of rocks.

Water is essential for weathering. It is used in alternate freezing and thawing, a mechanical weathering process to break down rocks.

It is used in rock hydrolysis for chemical weathering.
