Explain in a simple way, how water erosion by groundwater can form a cave?

Physics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Groundwater can cause erosion through chemical weathering. First, water that sinks into the ground mixes with carbon dioxide to form carbonic acid, a weak acid. Carbonic acid can break down limestone. Some of the limestone changes chemically and is carried away in a solution of water. This gradually hollows out pockets in the rock. Over time, these pockets develop into large holes underground—caves or caverns.

At a speed of 60 mph, how far does your car travel in 3 seconds
Viefleur [7K]

One of the many random useless factoids that I carry around
in my head is the factoid that 60 miles per hour is equivalent
to exactly 88 feet per second.

So in three seconds at that speed, you would cover exactly

                       (3 x 88) = 264 feet.

Why aren't homes wired in series? A. Because it's too expensive. B. Parallel circuits are too complex for home wiring. O C. Beca
Liula [17]

Answer:

D. If a home were wired in series, every light and appliance would have to be turned on in order for any light or appliance to work.

Explanation:

In a series circuit, all the appliances are connected on the same branch of the circuit, one after the other. This means that the current flowing throught them is the same. However, this means also that if one of the appliance is turned off (so, its switch is open), that appliance breaks the circuit, so the current can no longer flow through the other appliances either.

On the contrary, when the appliances are connected in parallel, they are connected in different branches, so if one of them is switched off, the other branches continue working unaffacted by it.

Which region of the early universe was most likely to become a galaxy?
kramer

Answer:

This is likely possible for a region whose matter density is higher than the normal average.

Explanation:

A galaxy is a collection of lumps in space which are clumped together and interact with each other. There are a lot of speculations on how galaxies were birthed. some believe its formed by a collection of massive gas, dust which eventually collapsed under their own gravitational pull. others says its formed by the combination of large lumps of matter which accumulated forming thee galaxies. The possibility of a galaxy forming is dependent on how massive the matter in the region of the universe is.
