Frost wedging is a type of physical weathering of rock.

Explanation:

Physical or mechanical weathering affects the rock structurally but does not change the chemical composition. Mechanical forces will rub, break or shatter the rock surfaces. Wedging, abrasion, exfoliation are different types of physical weathering.

Water is one of the main sources which alter the structure of the rocks physically.

Frost wedging occurring due to flow of freezing water over the rocks. This frozen water enters the rock through the cracks and crevices on the rock surface,  and will expand inside and makes the rocks to crack further and breaks it apart.

What would be the resulting charge of carbon (C) after this element loses four electrons?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Carbon will become positively charged.

The charge of Carbon will be +4.

Explanation:

The charge of Carbon will be +4.

In the periodic table, elements that give out  or lose electrons during electrochemical combinations are called electropositive elements. If carbon loses electrons during the chemical combination, Carbon will become positively charged, with a valency equal to the number of electrons that it lost.

This will make carbon have a charge of +4

A body with an initial velocity of 10m/s has an acceleration of 8m/s^2. Determine graphically the velocity after 5 seconds, &amp
Pie

Answer:

From the graph, at t = 5 seconds, the velocity = 50 m/s as shown also in the above table

Please find attached the graph

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the body =  m/s

The acceleration of the body = 8 m/s²

The velocity after 5 seconds can be determined graphically and by calculation as follows;

Graphically, we have the data points which can be found by the straight line relation  v = u + a×t,

Where ,

a = The slope = 8 m/s²

u = 10 m/s = The y-intercept

Which gives;

v = 10 + 8 × t

The following data can be calculated for various time t;

Time, t     Velocity , v

0,             10

1,              18

2,             26

3,             34

4,             42

5,             50

6,             58

From the graph, at t = 5 seconds, the velocity = 50 m/s as shown also in the above table

Please find attached the graph

By calculation, we have;

v = u + a×t

Where;

v = The final velocity

u = The initial velocity = 10 m/s

a = The acceleration = 8 m/s²

t = The time = 5 seconds

v = 10 + 5× 8 = 50 m/s.
