<span>Mechanical Weathering</span>
BartSMP [9]4 years ago
4 0
The correct answer is physical weathering, also known as mechanical weathering. An example of this would be when water falls into the cracks of a rock. It freezes during cold times and expands in size, which causes the rock to crack even more. When it melts, the crack is bigger and new water goes inside and cracks it even more, and so on and so forth.

Defined the term electromagnetic induction and explain how a generator uses electromagnetic induction​
tatuchka [14]

Is the production of electricity by magnetic field.

There are two types of generator which is <u>D</u><u>.</u><u>C</u><u> </u>generator . And A.C <em>g</em><em>e</em><em>n</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em>a</em><em>t</em><em>o</em><em>r</em>

A.C gen consist of rectangular coil,brushes and permanent magnet

According to the external force mechanical energy used to rotate coil, due to magnetic flux produced by permanent magnet create induced current, this is to according to flemmings right hand rule of electromagnetic induction the rotating coil will produce current

I hope that will help.

A 6 N and a 10 N force act on an object. The moment arm of the 6 N force is 0.2 m. If the 10 N force produces five times the tor
Levart [38]

Answer:

The moment arm is 0.6 m

Explanation:

Given that,

First force F_{1}=6\ N

Second force F_{2}=10\ N

Distance r = 0.2 m

We need to calculate the moment arm

Using formula of torque

\tau=Force\times lever\ arm

So, Here,

\tau_{2}=5 \tau_{1}

We know that,

The torque is the product of the force and distance.

Put the value of torque in the equation

F_{2}\times d_{2}=5\times F_{1}\times r_{1}

r_{2}=\dfrac{5\times F_{1}\times r_{1}}{F_{2}}

Where, F_{1}=First force

F_{1}=First force

F_{2}=Second force

r_{1}= distance

Put the value into the formula

r_{2}=\dfrac{5\times6\times0.2}{10}

r_{2}=0.6\ m

Hence, The moment arm is 0.6 m

A 13.4-mH inductor carries a current i = <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=I_%7Bmax%7D" id="TexFormula1" title="I_{max}" alt="I_
Digiron [165]

The voltage across an inductor ' L ' is

V = L · dI/dt .

I(t) = I(max) sin(ωt)

dI/dt = I(max) ω cos(ωt)

V = L · ω · I(max) cos(ωt)

L = 1.34 x 10⁻² H

ω = 2π · 60 = 377 /sec

I(max) = 4.80 A

V = L · ω · I(max) cos(ωt)

V = (1.34 x 10⁻² H) · (377 / sec) · (4.8 A) · cos(377 t)

<em>V = 24.25 cos(377 t)</em>

V is an AC voltage with peak value of 24.25 volts and frequency = 60 Hz.
