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.

Answer
given,
height of window = 4 m
time taken to travel = 1 s
acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
u = -0.905 m/s
initial velocity of ledge v = 0
now,
v² = u² + 2 a s
(-0.905)² = 0 + 2 × 9.8 ×s
s = 0.042 m
