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.

A 69 kg zebra is traveling 7 m/s east. What is the zebra’s momentum? kg-m/s
Hitman42 [59]
Linear momentum is the product of mass and velocity. In this case, it is simply:
69\times 7 = 483 kg\cdot m/s

How fast is a wave traveling if it has a wavelength of 7 meters and a frequency of 11 Hz?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \sf{77 \: m/s}}}}

☯ Question :

  • How fast is a wave travelling if it has a wavelength of 7 meters and a frequency of 11 Hz?

☯ \underbrace{ \sf{Required \: Answer  :  }}

☥ Given :

  • Wavelength ( λ ) = 7 meters
  • Frequency ( f ) = 11 Hz

☥ To find :

  • Speed of sound ( v ) = ?

☄ We know ,

\boxed{ \sf{v = f \times λ}}

where ,

  • v = speed of sound
  • f = frequency
  • λ = wavelength

Now, substitute the values and solve for v.

➺ \sf{v = 11 \times 7}

➺ \boxed{ \sf{v = 77 \: m/s}}

-------------------------------------------------------------------

✑ Additional Info :

  • Frequency : The number of complete vibrations made by a particle of a body in one second is called it's frequency. It is denoted by the letter f . The SI unit of frequency is hertz ( Hz ).

  • Wavelength : The distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions of a sound wave is called wavelength of that wave. It is denoted by λ ( lambda ) and it's SI unit is m.

  • Speed of a sound wave : The distance covered by a sound wave in one second is called speed of sound wave. It depends on the product of wavelength and frequency of the wave.

Hope I helped!

Have a wonderful time! ツ
