Answer:

abrasion

Explanation:

Abrasion is the grinding away of rock by friction and impact during transportation. Rocks are broken down into smaller particles by the mechanism of weathering. There after erosion causes the transportation of these rock particles.The rocks particles began to mechanically scrape themselves due to friction . This process of rocks scraping themselves to causing wearing on the surface is known as Abrasion. The rock particles might be transported by wind, glacier, waves and erosion.

Due to abrasion the rock particles might further disintegrate into more smaller particles.

Evaluate ( 64800 ms ) 2 to three significant figures and express the answer in Si units. Express your answer using three signifi
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

42.0×10² second²

Explanation:

Here, time is given in milisecond

(64800 ms)²

= 4199040000 ms²

The SI unit is seconds

1 second = 1000 milisecond

1\ milisecond=\frac{1}{1000}\ second

\\\Rightarrow 1\ milisecond^2=\left(\frac{1}{1000}\right)^2\ second^2

4199040000\ ms^2=4199040000\times \left(\frac{1}{1000}\right)^2\ second^2=4199.04\ second^2

42.0×10² second²

nataly862011 [7]
Wavelength= speed / frequency 

so.....3× 10^8 / 7.26×10^14
= .413× 10^(-6)

in scientific notation= 4.13×10^(-7) 

in nanometer = 413 nm
