In Florida, most of the rocks that are underground are a type of soft, white rock called limestone. If limestone is underwater for a long period of time, it begins to dissolve. Which of these processes most likely causes this change?
A. chemical weathering
B. erosion
C. deposition
D. physical weathering

Answers

Answer 1
D. Physical weathering
Answer 2

In Florida, most of the rocks that are underground are a type of soft, white rock called limestone. Long-term submergence in water causes limestone to disintegrate. These processes most likely causes this change is called Physical weathering. Hence, Option D is the correct answer.

What is Physical weathering?

Physical weathering is also known as mechanical weathering. It is the weakening of rocks followed by the disintegration due to the physical or mechanical forces including the actions on the rocks by the abrasion, frost chattering, temperature fluctuations and the salt crystal growth. Eventually, after many cooling and heating events, the rocks cracks and break into smaller pieces.

This same mechanical process applies when water freezes and thaws in the cracks of a rock.  The chemical composition of the rock, however, remains the same in the process. In Florida, most of the rocks that are underground are a type of soft, white rock called limestone. Long-term submergence in water causes limestone to disintegrate.

These processes most likely causes this change is called Physical weathering. Hence, Option D is the correct answer.

An object is experiencing an acceleration of 9.0 m/s? while traveling in a circle at a velocity of
6.2 m/s. What is the radius of its motion?

Answers

Answer:

4.27m

Explanation:

Recall that for uniform rotational motion,

the formula for centripetal acceleration is given as

Centripetal acceleration = ( velocity)² / radius

in our case we are given :

Centripetal acceleration = 9.0 m/s²

velocity = 6.2 m/s

substituting these into the formula:

9.0 = 6.2² / radius

radius = 6.2² / 9.0 = 4.27m

Given that renewable sources provide only a small percentage of our energy and that nuclear power is so expensive, in your opinion, what can we realistically do to get off fossil fuels as soon as possible?

Answers

Answer:

No getting rid of fossil fuel is not at all possible.

Explanation:

Dream of 100% renewable energy is possible through electrification and use of energy from sun, water and wind. Since, the high production cost of power plant for extracting energy from these sources in itself is a big challenge and hence decarbonized energy in current scenario is not realistic.

The equation for the formation of water from hydrogen gas and oxygen gas is 2H2+O2→2H2O . How many grams of water can be made from 64 g of oxygen gas?

Answers

Answer: 144 g

the mol of the oxygen gas is 64/16 = 4 (mol)

we have:

2H2 + O2 => 2H2O

           4  ------> 8

=> the mol of H2O is 8 mol

=> m(H2O) = 8.(2 + 16) = 8.18 = 144 (g)

How far will a car travel in half an hour at
30 mph?

Answers

15miles, if it is going 30 miles per hour, and you drive for half an hour, you drive 15 miles

Answer:

The car will travel the distance of 15 miles

S= D/T

therefore

D=ST

D = Distance

S = Speed (30 mph)

T = Time (0.5 Hours)

D = 30 * 0.5 = 15

A projectile is fired at a velocity of 50 m/s straight into the air. What is the velocity of the projectile when the objects displacement is 16 meters and headed downward?

Answers

Answer:

the final velocity of the object is 53.04 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the projectile, u = 50 m/s

displacement of the object, d = 16 m

let the final velocity of the object = v

Apply the following kinematic equation to determine the final velocity of the projectile.

v² = u² + 2gd

v² = 50² + (2 x 9.8 x 16)

v² = 2813.6

v = √2813.6

v = 53.04 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the object is 53.04 m/s.

How do snakes detect?

With almost ineffective hearing and vision, snakes can be extremely fast animals. Snakes can use chemoreceptors, heat, and even their tails to recognize prey and mates. With mostly ineffective hearing and vision systems, snakes can be extremely fast animals.

They also “see” in infrared. Thanks to the mechanism, they can track prey up to a meter away by the heat of their bodies. They use a simple organ, the loreal pit, located near the nostrils.

Answers

Answer:

Follows are the solution to the given question:

Explanation:

For point a:

[tex]T= 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}\\\\k = \frac{4 \pi^2 m}{T^2}\\\\= \frac{4 \times (3.14)^2 \times 3}{2^2}\\\\=29.578 \ \frac{N}{m}\\\\[/tex]

For Point b:

[tex]E=\frac{1}{2} m a^2 w^2\\\\[/tex]

   [tex]=\frac{1}{2} \times m \times a^2 \times \frac{4\pi^2}{T^2}\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times (0.15)^2 \times \frac{4\times 3.14^2}{2^2}\\\\=0.332 \ J[/tex]

For Point C:

[tex]V_{max}= a w[/tex]

        [tex]= (0.15) \times \frac{2\pi}{T}\\\\= (0.15) \times \frac{2\times 3.14}{2}\\\\=0.471 \frac{m}{s}[/tex]

For point D:

[tex]X= a \sin (wt+ \phi)\\\\0.91=0.15 \sin(\frac{2\pi}{T} \times t+\phi)\\\\0.91=0.15 \sin(\frac{2\times 3.14}{2} \times 0.5+\phi)\\\\0.60 = \sin(3.14 \times 0.5+\phi)\\\\0.60 = \sin(1.57+\phi)\\\\1.57 +\phi =\sin^{-1} 60^{\circ}\\\\1.57 +\phi = 36.86^{\circ}\\\\=35.29^{\circ}\\\\So, X=15 \sin(3.14t+35.29^{\circ}) \ cm[/tex]
