C is not mechanical weathering. It is chemical weathering.
Answer:
a) The mass flow rate through the nozzle is 0.27 kg/s.
b) The exit area of the nozzle is 23.6 cm².
Explanation:
a) The mass flow rate through the nozzle can be calculated with the following equation:

Where:
: is the initial velocity = 20 m/s
: is the inlet area of the nozzle = 60 cm²
: is the density of entrance = 2.21 kg/m³
Hence, the mass flow rate through the nozzle is 0.27 kg/s.
b) The exit area of the nozzle can be found with the Continuity equation:



Therefore, the exit area of the nozzle is 23.6 cm².

Answer:
The tension on the string is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the rock is 
The density of the rock is
Generally the volume of the rock is mathematically evaluated as

substituting values


The volume of the rock immersed in water is
substituting values


mass of water been displaced by the this volume is
According to Archimedes principle
=> 

The weight of the water displace is



The actual weight of the rock is

The tension on the string is
substituting values
Let the mass of the person be m. Total momentum is conserved (because the exterior forces on the system are balanced), especially the component in the vertical direction.
Given that,
Mass of gallon is M
Let man mass be m
Velocity of man is v
Let velocity if ballot be Vb
When the person begin to move we have
Conservation of momentum
mv + MVb=0
MVb=-mv
Vb= -(m/M) v
Given that the mass of man is less than mass of balloon. i.e. m<M
So, if m<M, then, m/M <1
Therefore, .
Vb= -(m/M) v
Vb< -v
This implies that the velocity of balloon is less than the velocity of man and if is also moving in opposite direction
So the man is moving upward, then the balloon is moving downward and it's velocity is less than the velocity of man,
The answer is C
Down with a speed less than v
