Answer:

Explanation:

One example is rocks tumbling over one another, knocking off pieces from one another. This often happens in a river, desert or hillside. In chemical weathering the rock disintegrates or even dissolves because a chemical reaction changes the composition of the rock.

You throw a glob of putty straight up toward the ceiling, which is 3.60 m above the point where the putty leaves your hand. The

Sliva [168]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Height of ceiling is $h=3.6\ m$

Initial speed of Putty $u=9.5\ m/s$

Speed of Putty just before it strike the ceiling is given by

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

$v^2-9.5^2=2\times (-9.8)\times 3.6$

$v^2=19.69$

$v=4.43\ m/s$

time taken by putty to reach the ceiling

$v=u+at$

$4.43=9.5-9.8\times t$

$t=\frac{5.07}{9.8}$

$t=0.517\ s$

A student adds two vectors of magnitudes 48 m and 22 m. What are the maximum and minimum possible values for the resultant of th

Julli [10]

Answer:

Maximum=70 m

Minimum=26 m

Explanation:

Vector Addition

Since vectors have magnitude and direction, adding them takes into consideration not only the magnitudes but also their respective directions. Two vectors can be totally collaborative, i.e., point to the same direction, or be totally opposite. In the first case, the magnitude of the sum is at maximum. Otherwise, it's at a minimum.

Thus, the maximum magnitude of the sum is 48+22 = 70 m and the minimum magnitude of the sum is 48-22= 26 m
