How is the earths surface shaped by weathering, erosion, and deposition. Give and example of each

1 answer:

FULL ANSWER<span>There are two types of weathering that affect the earth's surface: mechanical and chemical. Mechanical weathering is sometimes called physical weathering and often occurs because of temperature changes on the surface. For example, if enough water seeps into a crack and freezes, it expands. This causes it to work as a wedge and it slowly splits open nearby rocks. As the ice melts, the resulting water carries away bits of the broken rock.C<span>hemical weathering changes the composition of the materials that make up rocks and soil. A good example of this is what happens when carbon dioxide is abundant in an area. High carbon dioxide combined with water produces an acid called carbonic acid. In time, carbonic acid dissolves rock.</span><span>Although both types of weathering are natural processes, humans and animals often unwittingly speed things up. Animals, such as dogs trampling across rocks and soil, speed up the process and air pollution caused by people increase the rate of weathering.</span></span>

What is the potential difference when the current in a circuit is 5mA and resistance is 30 Ohms

Mashcka [7]

<h2> $\bf{ \underline{Given:- }}$ </h2>

$\sf• \: The \: current \: in \: a \: circuit \: is \: 5 \: amps. \: and \: resistance \: is \: 30 \: Ohms.$

$\\$

<h2> $\bf{ \underline{To \: Find :- }}$ </h2>

$\sf{• \: The \: Potential \: Difference. }$

$\\$

$\huge\bf{ \underline{ Solution:- }}$

$\sf According \: to \: the \: question,$

$\sf• \: Current \: (I) = 5 \: Amps.$

$\sf• \: Resistance \: (R) = 30 \: Ω$

$\sf{Potential \: difference \: means \: Voltage \: ( V).}$

$\sf{We \: know \: that, }$

$\bf \red{ \bigstar{ \: V = IR }}$

$\rightarrow \sf V =5 \times 30$

$\rightarrow \sf V =150$

$\\$

$\sf \purple{Therefore, \: the \: potential \: difference \: is \: 150 \: v \: .}$

liquid helium has a very low boiling point, 4.2 k, as well as a very low latent heat of vaporization, 2.00 104 j/kg. if energy i

aksik [14]

$4.80 \times 10^3 \text { seconds }$ long does it take to boil away 2.40 kg of the liquid.

Boiling point of He is $T=4.2 \mathrm{k}$

Latent heat of vapourization $L=2.00 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{kg}$

Power of electrical heater $P=30 \mathrm{w}$

mass of liquid is $m=2.40 \mathrm{~kg}$

amount of heat required to boil

$\begin{aligned}&Q=m L \\&Q=2.40 \times 2 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J} \\&Q=4.80 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J}\end{aligned}$

Power $p=\frac{\text { work }}{\text { time }}=\frac{\text { Energy }}{\text { Time }}$

$\begin{aligned}P &=\frac{Q}{t} \\\text { tine } t &=\frac{Q}{P}=\frac{4.80 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J}}{10} \\t &=4.80 \times 10^3 \text { seconds }\end{aligned}$

The heat or energy that is absorbed or released during a substance's phase shift is known as latent heat. It could go from a solid to a liquid or from a liquid to a gas, or vice versa. Enthalpy, a characteristic of heat, is connected to latent heat.

The heat that is used or lost as matter melts and transitions from a solid to a fluid form at a constant temperature is known as the latent heat of fusion.

Due to the fact that during softening the heat energy anticipated to transform the substance from solid to fluid at air pressure is the latent heat of fusion and that the temperature remains constant during the process, the "enthalpy" of fusion is a latent heat. The enthalpy change of any quantity of material during dissolution is known as the latent heat of fusion.
