How does weathering produce soil

Physics
1 answer:
ladessa [460]2 years ago
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.

I hope this is helpful

What must happen to an atom of magnesium in order to become a magnesium ion Mg+2?
igomit [66]

Answer:

Answer is: c. It must lose two electrons and become an ion.

Magnesium (Mg) is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons (two valence electrons).

Magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.

Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

the base of a rectangular vessel measure 10m by 18cm. water is poured into a depth of 4cm. (a) what is the pressure on the base?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a) P =392.4[Pa]; b) F = 706.32[N]

Explanation:

With the input data of the problem we can calculate the area of the tank base

L = length = 10[m]

W = width = 18[cm] = 0.18[m]

A = W * L = 0.18*10

A = 1.8[m^2]

a)

Pressure can be calculated by knowing the density of the water and the height of the water column within the tank which is equal to h:

P = density * g *h

where:

density = 1000[kg/m^3]

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

h = heigth = 4[cm] = 0.04[m]

P = 1000*9.81*0.04

P = 392.4[Pa]

The force can be easily calculated knowing the relationship between pressure and force:

P = F/A

F = P*A

F = 392.4*1.8

F = 706.32[N]

The unit of force,newton is a derived unit.why?​
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: Newton, the unit of force, is defined based on Newton's Second Law (F=ma), as the force required to give a mass of one kilogram an acceleration of 1 meter/second2. Thus, it is derived from these other units.
