C. Mechanical, because temperature can cause solid objects to expand and contract, causing rocks to split apart.

c. mechanical weathering because this is the grinding action of other rock particles due to gravity or the motion of water, ice or air.

Do you think a baseball curves better at the top of a high mountain or down on a flat plain

Serhud [2]

A baseball will curve better on the flat plain if it is higher than sea level but low elevation.

The mean diameters of Mars and Earth are 6.9 ✕ 103 km and 1.3 ✕ 104 km, respectively. The mass of Mars is 0.11 times Earth's mas

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

(a) Ratio of mean density is 0.735

(b) Value of g on mars 0.920 $m,/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given radius of mars $R_{mars}=6.9\times 10^3km=6.9\times 10^6m$ and radius of earth $R_{E}=1.3\times 10^4km=1.3\times 10^7m$

Mass of earth $M_E=5.972\times 10^{24}kg$

So mass of mars $M_m=5.972\times\times 0.11 \times 10^{24}=0.657\times 10^{24}kg$

Volume of mars $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (6.9\times 10^6)^3=1375.357\times 10^{18}m^3$

So density of mars $d_{mars}=\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{0.657\times 10^{24}}{1375.357\times 10^{18}}=477.69kg/m^3$

Volume of earth $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (1.3\times 10^7)^3=9.198\times 10^{21}m^3$

So density of earth $d_{E}=\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{5.972\times 10^{24}}{9.198\times 10^{21}}=649.271kg/m^3$

(A) So the ratio of mean density $\frac{d_{mars}}{d_E}=\frac{477.69}{649.27}=0.735$

(B) Value of g on mars

g is given by $g=\frac{GM}{R^2}=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times0.657\times 10^{24}}{(6.9\times 10^6)^2}=0.920m/sec^2$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 0.657\times 10^{24}}{6.9\times 10^6}}=3.563\times 10^4m/sec$

A burglar attempts to drag a 108 kg metal safe across a polished wood floor Assume that the coefficient of static friction is 0.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

2.00 m/s²

Explanation:

Given

The Mass of the metal safe, M = 108kg

Pushing force applied by the burglar, F = 534 N

Co-efficient of kinetic friction, $\mu_k$ = 0.3

Now,

The force against the kinetic friction is given as:

$f = \mu_k N = u_k Mg$

Where,

N = Normal reaction

g= acceleration due to the gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

$f = 0.3\times108\times9.8$

$f = 317.52N$

Now, the net force on to the metal safe is

$F_{Net}= F-f$

Substituting the values in the equation we get

$F_{Net}= 534N-317.52N$

$F_{Net}= 216.48$

also,

$F_{Net}= M\times$ acceleration of the safe

Therefore, the acceleration of the metal safe will be

acceleration of the safe= $\frac{F_{Net}}{M}$

acceleration of the safe= $\frac{216.48}{108}$

acceleration of the safe= $2.00 m/s^2$

Hence, the acceleration of the metal safe will be 2.00 m/s²
