Erosion and Weathering can cause changes in earths surface but how does erosion alone changes the earth surface.

Physics
1 answer:
Dvinal [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The action of erosion alone can change the earth's surface. Erosion can wash away nutrients on the earth's surface, change the appearance of the soil of a particular area over time, can bore holes, that form caves, change landscapes for example when the earth is hit with gully erosion by continuous water runoff over time. Erosion can move soil to a new area.

Explanation:

Weathering involves breaking down rock into smaller pieces without any form of formal movement of those broken rock pieces. These processes that can lead to weathering are caused by mechanical, chemical, and organic processes which can happen over time. Erosion can now move broken rock pieces or soil to another place by water or wind. Weathering and erosion constantly change the Earth's surface.

A 350-kg roller coaster car starts from rest at point A and slides down a frictionless loop-the-loop (Pig. P7.41). (a) How fast
Leona [35]

Answer:

a)Velocity of car =v=16 m/s

b)Force against the track at point B=1.15*10^{4}N

Explanation:

Given mass of roller coaster=m=350 kg

Position of A=Ha=25 m

Position of B=Hb=12 m

Net potential energy=mg(ha-hb)

Net potential energy=(350)(9.80)(25-12)

Net potential energy=44590 J

Using energy conservation

net kinetic energy=net potential energy

(1/2)mv^2=mg(ha-hb)

m=350

velocity=v=16 m/s

b)There two force acting,centripetal force upward and gravity downward.

Thus net force acting will be

Net force=(mv^2/r)-mg

Net force=14933.33-3430

Net force=1.15*10^{4} N

The earth has a mass ME = 5.98 · 1024 kg and the moon has a mass MM = 7.36 · 1022 kg. The distance from the center of the earth
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

2 x 10^20 N

Explanation:

Me = 5.98 x 10^24 kg

Mm = 7.36 x 10^22 kg

r = 3.82 x 10^5 km = 3.82 x 10^8 m

The gravitational force between earth and moon is

F = G Me x Mm / r^2

F = (6.67 x 10^-11 x  5.98 x 10^24 x 7.36 x 10^22) / (3.82 x 10^8 x 3.82 x 10^8)

F = 2 x 10^20 N

You are on a skateboard not moving when your friend throws you a basketball and you catch it. The 0.50kg basketball was going 5
Sidana [21]

Answer:

a. Your mass with the basketball is 55.5 kg

b. Your new velocity is 0.045 m/s

Explanation:

We first add your weight and the basketballs weight to get 55.5 kg.

Then to find b. we use the equation: v final = (m1 * v1) / (m1 +m2)

So m1 is the basketball which is 0.5 kg and v1 is 5 m/s. So the top half is (0.5 * 5)

The bottom half is just our weights added together.
