Explain in your OWN words what erosion mass wasting means

Physics
1 answer:
marishachu [46]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Erosion is the physical removal and transportation of weathered material by water, wind, ice, or gravity. Mass wasting is the transfer or movement of rock or soil down slope primarily by gravity. Rock falls, slumps, and debris flows are all examples of mass wasting.

When Woods hits a 0.04593 kg golf ball, the golf ball is usually traveling around 281 kilometers per hour. What average force do
Semenov [28]

Answer:

128.9 N

Explanation:

The force exerted on the golf ball is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the ball, so we can write:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

where

F is the force

\Delta p is the change in momentum

\Delta t=0.030 s is the time interval

The change in momentum can be written as

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m = 0.04593 kg is the mass of the ball

u = 0 is the initial velocity of the ball

v=281 km/h =78.1 m/s is the final velocity of the ball

Substituting into the original equation, we find the force exerted on the golf ball:

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}=\frac{(0.04593)(78.1-0)}{0.030}=128.9 N

Ezekiel is standing inside a spaceship ( S′ frame) that moves to the right at a speed of v=0.5c , where c is the speed of light.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

c. Both signals are simultaneous.

Explanation:

The speed of light is the same in all frame of reference.

Since an observer inside the ship receives both signals at the same time, then the signals from both flashlight are simultaneously.

Diamond and graphite are both composed entirely of carbon yet graphite is soft and diamond is one of the hardest substances know
pogonyaev

Explanation:

This difference is because of the difference in arrangement of carbon atoms both graphite and Diamond.

Carbon atoms in graphite are arranged in layered form in an infinite array of layers. These layers are held together by a weaker force of attraction called vander waal's force of attraction such that layer's can slip over one another. Whereas in diamond carbon atoms are arranged tetrahedrally. Each carbon atom is attached to four carbon atoms with a bond angle of 109.5°. It is strong rigid three dimensional structure that results in infinite array atoms. This accounts for hardness of the diamond.
