Which of the following best describes the behavior of silica rich magma

Physics

Answer:

A. Highly viscous and associated with violent eruptions

Explanation:

Most silica rich magma have high viscosity and huge amount of trapped gases within them. As they continue to upwell and expand, the gases causes violent eruptions near Volcanoes. Most granitic/rhyolitic magma are silica rich.

Answer: Option (A)

Explanation: Silica rich magma are those in which the magma has more than 65 % of silica content. The higher the silica content, the higher is its viscosity i.e viscosity of a magma is directly proportional to the silica content of magma.

This highly viscous magma inside the volcanoes moves sluggishly and mostly gets concentrated in the vents and seals them. With time, when the pressure exerted by the magma is too high, it creates violent eruptions through the vents.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

A car is pushed with a force of 450 N for 19.4 seconds. What impulse was applied to the car?​
harina [27]

Answer:

impulse = 8820 kg·\frac{m}{s} or 8820 N·s

Explanation:

Impulse J is equal to the average force F_{av} multiplied by the elapsed time Δt or in equation form, J = F_{av}Δt

As long as your force of 450 N is constant then that value is your average force F_{av} and your elapsed time is 19.4 seconds.

Multiply these values.

You will get an impulse of 8820 kg·\frac{m}{s} or 8820 N·s.

A. How does the speed of light in a vacuum change when observed from two different frames of reference?
anyanavicka [17]

a) It is absolute, so it does not change.

b) Inertial ones.

c) Inside the train the time will slow down relatively to the outside clock. So if one travel at nearly the speed if light for 2 hours on his clock, for outdoor observers it will look like 3 hours.

What's the mass show the work?
Alja [10]
You do this one just like the other one that I just solved for you.

For this one ...

The density of the object is 2.5 gm/cm³.
We know that every cm³ of it we have contains 2.5 gm of mass.
We have to find out how many cm³ we have.

The question tells us:  We have  2.0 cm³.

Each cm³ of space that the object occupies contains 2.5 gm of mass.

So the 2.0 cm³ that we have contains (2 x 2.5 gm) = 5 gms.
That's the mass of our object.
