Explain how an alpine glacier can change the topography of a mountainous area

igor_vitrenko [27]

An alpine glacier can change the topography of a mountainous area through Glacial Erosion and Glacial Deposition. Glaciers are agents of erosion, it can pick up and carry large rocks and sediments. In the process, a deep cavity or hole can form when the glacier plucks a big rock from where it passed. Glaciers have shaped many Mountain Ranges and have created distinct landforms by its erosion process. In Glacial Deposition, as glaciers melt, it deposits all that it carried and a landform is developed.

If the magnitude of the electric field in air exceeds roughly 3 ✕ 106 N/C, the air breaks down and a spark forms. For a two-disk

Westkost [7]

Answer:

1.843 x 10^-5 C

Explanation:

Givens:

It is given that the air starts ionizing when the electric field in the air exceeds a magnitude of 3 x 10^6 N/C, which means that the max electric field can stand without forming a spark is 3 x 10^6 N/C.

Also it is given that the radius of the disk is 50 cm, it is required to find out the max amount of charge that the disk can hold without forming spark, which means the charge that would produce the max magnitude of the electric field that air can stand without forming spark, and since we know that the electric field in between 2 disk "Capacitor" is given by the following equation

E = (Q/A)/∈o (1)

Where,

Q: total charge on the disk.

A: the area of the disk.

Calculations:

We want to find the quantity of charge on the disk that would produce an electric field of 3 x 10^6 N/C, knowing the radius of the disk we can find the cross-section of the disk, thus substituting in equation (1) we find the maximum quantity of charge the disk can hold

Q = EA∈o

= (3 x 10^6) x (π*0.50) x (8.85 x 10^-12)

= 1.843 x 10^-5 C

note:

calculations maybe wrong but method is correct

Calculate the phase angle (in radians) for a circuit with a maximum voltage of 12 V and w-50 Hz. The voltage source is connected

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The phase angle is 0.0180 rad.

(c) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage = 12 V

Angular velocity = 50 Hz

Capacitance $C= 20\times10^{-2}\ F$

Inductance $L=20\times10^{-3}\ H$

Resistance $R= 50\ Omega$

We need to calculate the impedance

Using formula of impedance

$z=\sqrt{R^2+(\omega L-\dfrac{1}{\omega C})^2}$

$z=\sqrt{50^2+(50\times20\times10^{-3}-\dfrac{1}{50\times20\times10^{-2}})^2}$

$z=50.00$

We need to calculate the phase angle

Using formula of phase angle

$\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{R}{z})$

$\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{50}{50.00})$

$\theta=0.0180\ rad$

Hence, The phase angle is 0.0180 rad.
