In general, weathering tends to occur more rapidly in warm climates than in cool climates. How does this trend explain the effec

t of temperature on erosion rates?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Weathering refers to the breakdown of rocks to form soil. There are several agents of weathering.

In warmer regions, there are more vegetation and microorganisms and they increase the rate of biological weathering.

Since weathering leads to the formation of soil and the rate of weathering is greater in warmer climates, it also follows that as temperature increases and more soil is formed, erosion will happen faster at this higher temperature owing to the presence of more soil compared to colder climates.

What is the name of the isotope produced when Californium-251 emits an alpha particle?
Charra [1.4K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

                 Curium-247 <em>i.e.</em> ²⁴⁷₉₆Cm

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Alpha decay is given by following general equation,

                              ᵃₓA    →    ⁴₂He  +  ᵃ⁻⁴ₓ₋₂B

Where;

           A  =  Parent Isotope

           B  =  Daughter Isotope

           ᵃ  =  Mass Number

           ₓ  =  Atomic Number

Californium-251 is the parent isotope in our case and it has 98 protons (atomic number) and is given as,

                                                 ²⁵¹₉₈Cf

The alpha decay reaction of Californium-251 will be as,

                               ²⁵¹₉₈Cf     →     ⁴₂He  +  ²⁴⁷₉₆B

The symbol for B with atomic number 96 was found to be the atom of Curium (Cm) by inspecting periodic table. Hence, the final equation is as follow,

                               ²⁵¹₉₈Cf     →     ⁴₂He  +  ²⁴⁷₉₆Cm

What are the various forms of energy?
Fantom [35]
Science has classified energy into two main forms: kinetic energy and potential energy. In addition, potential energy takes several forms of its own. ​Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a moving object.
