How does weathering produce soil

1 answer:

8 0

Answer:Respiration of carbon dioxide by plant roots can lead to the formation of carbonic acid which can chemically attack rocks and sediments and help to turn them into soils. There are a whole range of weathering processes at work near the surface of the soil, acting together to break down rocks and minerals to form soil.

A 115-turn circular coil of radius 2.71 cm is immersed in a uniform magnetic field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coi

tester [92]

Answer:

80.6 mV

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Number of turns, N = 115

Radius of coil, r = 2.71 cm = 0.0271m

Time taken, t = 0.133s

Initial magnetic field, Bin = 50.1 mT = 0.0501 T

Final magnetic field, Bfin = 90.5 mT = 0.0905 T

Induces EMF is given as:

EMF = [(Bfin - Bin) * N * A] / t

EMF = [(0.0905 - 0.0501) * 115 * pi * 0.0271²] / 0.133

EMF = (0.0404 * 115 * 3.142 * 0.0007344) / 0.133

EMF = 0.0806 V = 80.6 mV

What is the amplitude of the wave shown in the diagram?

Marina86 [1]

The amplitude is from the absolute value of the 0 point on the y-axis to the highest(peak) or lowest(troph) point of the wave. In this question, 3cm is the highest and -3cm is the lowest, so the amplitude is 3cm.

Arturiano [62]

The kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame is 6.704*10^22 Joules.

To find the answer, we have to know about the Lorentz transformation.

<h3>What is its kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame?</h3>

It is given that, an alien spaceship traveling at 0.600 c toward the Earth, in the same direction the landing craft travels with a speed of 0.800 c relative to the mother ship. We have to find the kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame, if the landing craft has a mass of 4.00 × 10⁵ kg.

$V_x'=0.8c\\V=0.6c\\m=4*10^5kg$

Let us consider the earth as S frame and space craft as S' frame, then the expression for KE will be,

$KE=m_0c^2=\frac{mc^2}{1-(\frac{v_x^2}{c^2} )}$

So, to $V_x=(0.8+0.6)c-[\frac{0.6c*(0.8c)^2}{c^2}]=1.016$ find the KE, we have to find the value of speed of the approaching landing craft with respect to the earth frame.
We have an expression from Lorents transformation for relativistic law of addition of velocities as,
