Answer:

Weathering

Explanation:

The geologic process of breaking down rocks into smaller and smaller units or pieces is known as weathering.

The physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils is known as weathering.

The agents of weathering are wind, water and glacier.

  • Chemical weathering entails the decomposition of rocks.
  • Mechanical weathering is the physical disintegration of rocks.

Therefore, weathering breaks down rocks.

Erosion removes the weathered materials.

1. Two forces act on a box as follows: F1 = 100 N at 01 = 170° and F2 = 75 N
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

a)  F = 64.30 N,  b) θ = 121.4º

Explanation:

Forces are vector quantities so one of the best methods to add them is to decompose each force and add the components

let's use trigonometry

Force F1

          sin 170 = F_{1y} / F₁

          cos 170 = F₁ₓ / F₁

          F_{1y} = F₁ sin 170

          F₁ₓ = F₁ cos 170

          F_{1y} = 100 sin 170 = 17.36 N

          F₁ₓ = 100 cos 170 = -98.48 N

Force F2

          sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂

          cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂

          F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30

          F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30

          F_{2y} = 75 sin 30 = 37.5 N

          F₂ₓ = 75 cos 30 = 64.95 N

the resultant force is

X axis

          Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ

          Fₓ = -98.48 +64.95

          Fₓ = -33.53 N

Y axis

         F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y}

         F_y = 17.36 + 37.5

         F_y = 54.86 N

a) the magnitude of the resultant vector

let's use Pythagoras' theorem

         F = Ra Fx ^ 2 + Fy²

         F = Ra 33.53² + 54.86²

         F = 64.30 N

b) the direction of the resultant

let's use trigonometry

        tan θ’= F_y / Fₓ

        θ'= tan^{-1}  \frac{F_y}{F_x}

        θ'= tan⁻¹ (54.86 / (33.53)

        θ’= 58.6º

this angle is in the second quadrant

The angle measured from the positive side of the x-axis is

        θ = 180 -θ'

        θ = 180- 58.6

        θ = 121.4º

A proton is initially moving west at a speed of 1.10 106 m/s in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.281 T directed verticall
kifflom [539]

Answer:

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm

Explanation:

As we know that proton is moving towards west while the magnetic field is vertically upwards

So here the force on the proton must be perpendicular to the velocity

So here we have

F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)

so here we have

F = qvB sin90

since force is perpendicular to the velocity so here it must be centripetal force

here we have

\frac{mv^2}{R} = qvB

so we have

R = \frac{mv}{qB}

R = \frac{(1.66 \times 10^{-27})(1.10 \times 10^6)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.281)}

R = 4.06 cm

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm

A block pushed along the floor with velocity V0 slides a distance d after the pushing force is removed. a) if the mass of the bl
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

a) \ d_2=d_1\\b) \ d_2=4d_1

Explanation:

Assume that the distance travelled initially is d.

In order to stop the block you need some external force which is friction.

If we use the law of energy conservation:

E_i=E_f\\\frac{mv^2}{2}= E_{Friction}\\E_{Friction}=F_{Friction}*d\\F_{Friction}= \mu_kmg\\\frac{mv^2}{2}= \mu_kmgd\\ d=\frac{v^2}{2\mu_kg}

a)

Looking at the formula you can see that the mass doesn't affect the distance travelled, as lng as the initial velocity is constant (Which indicates that the force must be higher to push the block to the same speed) therefore the distance is the same.

b) If the velocity is doubled, then the distance travelled is multiplied by 4, because the distance deppends on the square of the velocity.
