A) gneiss

Explanation:

The likely rock that would be found here is gneiss.

A rock type that forms under a great deal of temperature and pressure is a metamorphic rock.

Such rocks would have their minerals crystallized when subjected to these extreme conditions.

  • Metamorphic rocks are changed rocks that are formed when minerals in rocks are subjected to extreme pressure and temperature before they start melting.
  • These rock type can form from either sedimentary or igneous rocks. In fact a metamorphic rock can also change into another one.
  • Examples of metamorphic rocks are gneiss, schist, hornfels, marble etc.

Halite, limestone and sandstone are examples of sedimentary rocks that forms by the accumulation of sediments or precipitation of ions form solutions.

Well if you had either the velocity or distance traveled i could tell you. But since you haven't all i can say for sure is that the water slowed the bullet down to 13m/s so lets say you knew the distance you would calculate how many meters it traveled and you would have your answer because in this situation, meters (height) =how many seconds spent going into the air.

Helen [10]

Answer:

The thrown rock will strike the ground 2.42s earlier than the dropped rock.

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

  • y_{i}=300m
  • y_{f}=0m
  • v_{iD}=0m/s
  • v_{iT}=-29m/s, it is negative as is directed downward

<u>Time of the dropped Rock</u>

We can use y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find the total time of fall, so 0=300m-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})t_{D}^{2}}{2}, then clearing for t_{D}.

t_{D}=\sqrt[2]{\frac{300m}{4.9m/s^{2}}} =\sqrt[2]{61.22s^{2}} =7.82s

<u>Time of the Thrown Rock</u>

We can use y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find the total time of fall, so 0=300-29t_{T}-\frac{(9.8)t_{T}^{2}}{2}, then, 0=-4.9t_{T}^{2}-29t_{T}+300, as it is a second-grade polynomial, we find that its positive root is t_{T}=5.4s

Finally, we can find how much earlier does the thrown rock strike the ground, so t_{E}=t_{D}-t_{T}=7.82s-5.4s=2.42s
