Which landscape will erode more quickly? Assume the same precipitation and average temperature in each landscape.
1 answer:
Answer:
B. Landscape B
Explanation:
Shale is fine sediment pressed together to form rock.
Sandstone is larger (sand-grain-sized) sediment cemented together to form rock.
Shale erodes faster, as evidenced by the second attachment. That attachment shows erosion of a rock face consisting of interbedded shale and sandstone. The shale has receded significantly, leaving the sandstone layers with space between them.

This problem uses the relationships among current I, current density J, and drift speed vd. We are given the total of electrons that pass through the wire in t = 3s and the area A, so we use the following equation to to find vd, from J and the known electron density n, so:
<span>The current I is any motion of charge from one region to another, so this is given by:
</span>
The magnitude of the current density is:
Being:
<span>
Finally, for the drift velocity magnitude vd, we find:
</span>
Notice: The current I is very high for this wire. The given values of the variables are a little bit odd
