Explain what is the difference of physical and chemical weathering

1 answer:

5 0

The difference is that physical weathering is a process that weathers rock without a chemical reaction or change. Chemical weathering changes the identity of rocks and it involves a chemical reaction or change.

Gretchen runs the first 4.0 km of a race at 5.0 m/s. Then a stiff wind comes up, so she runs the last 1.0 km at only 4.0 m/s.

Answer:

The velocity is $v = 4.76 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The first distance is $d_1 = 4.0 \ km = 4000 \ m$

The first speed is $v_1 = 5.0 \ m/s$

The second distance is $d_2 = 1.0 \ km = 1000 \ m$

The second speed is $v_2 = 4.0 \ m/s$

Generally the time taken for first distance is

$t_1 = \frac{d_1 }{v_1 }$

$t_1 = \frac{4000}{5}$

$t_1 = 800 \ s$

The time taken for second distance is

$t_1 = \frac{d_2 }{v_2 }$

$t_1 = \frac{1000}{4}$

$t_1 = 250 \ s$

The total time is mathematically represented as

$t = t_1 + t_2$

=> $t = 800 + 250$

=> $t = 1050 \ s$

Generally the constant velocity that would let her finish at the same time is mathematically represented as

$v = \frac{d_1 + d_2}{t }$

=> $v = \frac{4000 + 1000}{1050 }$

=> $v = 4.76 \ m/s$

Dvinal [7]

I attached the full question.
We know that for a parallel-plate capacitor the surface charge density is given by the following formula:
$\sigma=\varepsilon_0 \frac{V}{d}$
Where V is the voltage between the plates and d is separation.
Voltage is by definition:
$V=Ed$
Voltage is analog to the mechanical work done by the force.
Above formula is correct only If the field is constant, and we can assume that it is since no function has been given.
The charge density would then be:
$\sigma=\varepsilon_0 \frac{Ed}{d}=\varepsilon_0E\\
\sigma= 8.85\cdot10^{-12}\cdot 2.1\cdot 10^6= 0.0000185\frac{c}{m^2}$
