Answer: The reason for changing the composition of rock is chemical weathering.  Chemical weathering can be defined as the change in the chemical composition of the rock by the effect of oxidation, hydrolysis, solution.

Under the effect of these, the mineral in the rock changes. This process requires water, temperature and damp climate to take place.

Erosion, weathering, mechanical changes, chemical changes.

Really, any interaction can change the composition of a rock whether it be done by man or through nature.

Jupiter's moon Io has a radius of 1.82 ✕ 106 m and a measured gravitational field of 1.80 m/s2. What is its mass (in kg)?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

8.94*10^22 kg

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of Lo, M = ?

Radius of Lo, r = 1.82*10^6 m

Acceleration on Lo, g = 1.80 m/s²

Gravitational constant, G = 6.67*10^-11

Using the formula

g = GM/r²

Solution is attached below

Answer is 8.94*10^22 kg

A 2.74 g coin, which has zero potential energy at the surface, is dropped into a 12.2 m well. After the coin comes to a stop in
VikaD [51]

Answer:

B. - 0.328

Explanation

Potential Energy:<em> This is the energy of a body due to position.</em>

<em>The S.I unit of potential energy is Joules (J).</em>

<em>It can be expressed mathematically as</em>

<em>Ep = mgh........................... Equation 1</em>

<em>Where Ep = potential energy, m = mass of the coin, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity,</em>

<em>Given: m = 2.74 g = 0.00274 kg, h = 12.2 m, g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

Substituting these values into equation 1

Ep = 0.00274×12.2×9.8

Ep = 0.328 J.

Note: Since the potential energy at the surface is zero, the potential Energy with respect to the surface = -0.328 J

The right option is B. - 0.328

Technician A says that side post terminals need to be removed to inspect them for corrosion. Technician B says that side post te
zlopas [31]

Answer: C

Explanation: Side post terminals need to be removed to inspect them for corrosion.

Over tightening the terminal bolt can damage side post terminals.

The battery terminals and cable ends can corrode especially when the battery or car is not used for a long period of time. Corrosion limits a battery's lifespan and so should be prevented. To inspect the areas where corrosion occur on a side-post battery, you need to remove the terminals.

Also, it is true that over tightening the terminal bolt can damage the side post terminals. The covering on the battery can become twisted, and make the seals on the terminals leak.
