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.

A communication satellite is in a circular path orbit around Earth. If the speed of the satellite is constant, the net force act
allsm [11]

Answer:

is changing in direction, but constant in magnitude

Explanation:

This question is a bit tricky since the velocity of the satellite is changing, but the speed is constant.

Speed is simply a measure of how fast you are going. It doesn't matter where you're going, just how quickly.

Velocity, on the other hand, does care about which direction you're going. For example, it could be then when you travel right, your velocity is positive, and when you travel left, your velocity is negative. This is the similar for a 2D shape like a circular orbit

Since we know velocity is changing, there must be acceleration which changes that velocity (since acceleration <em>is</em><em> </em>the change in velocity: going from 0 to 60 mph, for example)

Thus, with a non-zero net acceleration, we know that there must be a force that is changing in direction, but constant in magnitude (since the orbit is a circle, and always attracted to the center of the Earth at equal distance).

A charged particle is accelerated in a uniform electric field. When its velocity is 2 m/s, its electric potential energy is 100
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

particle's potential energy = 70J

Explanation:

From conservation of energy; K1 + Ue1 = K2 + Ue2

where K1 and K2 are the kinetic energies at two positions and Ue1 and Uue2 are the electrical potential energies at two positions.

k1 = 10J, Ue1 = 100J

K2 = 40J

substitute into K1 + Ue1 = K2 + Ue2

Ue2 = K1 + Ue1 - K2

= 10 +100 - 40

Ue2 = 70J
