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.

Two inductors, L1 and L2, are in parallel. L1 has a value of 25 mH and L2 a value of 50 mH. The parallel combination is in serie
Bond [772]

Answer:

Explanation:

For parallel inductors ,

\frac{1}{L_R} = \frac{1}{L_1} +\frac{1}{L_2}

\frac{1}{L_R} =\frac{1}{25} +\frac{1}{50}

L_R=16.67 mH.

For series combination

Total inductance

= 16.67 + 20

= 36.67 mH .

reactance of total inductance at 300 kHz

= ωL_{total} where ω is angular frequency

= 2πfL_{total}

= 2 x 3.14 x 300 x 10³ x 36.67 x 10⁻³

= 69.1 x 10³ ohm

Total rms current = Vrms / reactance

= 60 / 69.1 x 10³ A

= .87 x 10⁻³ A

= .87 mA
