It transfers the electrical current from the point of contact on the lightning rod into the ground.
Answer:
Option (D)
Explanation:
Weathering refers to the disintegration of rocks due to the different geological processes that are initiated by agents such as wind, water and ice.
In a region where the temperature is high, and there is sufficient amount of moisture content in the air, there occurs high rate of physical, chemical and biological type of weathering.
- Physical weathering processes such as freeze-thaw method and exfoliation method commonly occurs in this type of region.
- Chemical weathering processes such as hydrolysis, oxidation, as well as carbonation method occurs in the region of high temperature, moist climatic condition.
- Biological weathering also is possible up to some extent as the plants takes up water from the rainfall and also receive enough sunlight for its growth, as a result of which it leads to the breakdown of rocks.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
As the particles in a soup reach the boiling point, the kinetic energy of the molecules will start increasing and ultimately bubbles will be created in the soup and it will slowly start to vaporize. Boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid will become equal to the atmospheric pressure.<span> </span>
