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.

The function​ s(t) represents the position of an object at time t moving along a line. Suppose s (2 )equals 146and s (6 )equals
sineoko [7]

Answer:

v(t) = 27 units

Explanation:

The function s(t) represents the position of an object at time t moving along a line such that,

s(2)=146

and

s(6)=254

We need to find the average velocity of the object over the interval of time [2,6]. The velocity of the object is equal to the total distance divided by time. It is given by :

v(t)=\dfrac{s(6)-s(2)}{6-2}

v(t)=\dfrac{254-146}{6-2}

v(t) = 27 units

So, the  average velocity of the object is 27 units. Hence, this is the required solution.

A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "42.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

(a) 42 N

(b)36.7 N

Explanation:

Nomenclature

F= force test line (N)

W : fish weight  (N)

Problem development

(a) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in at constant speed

We apply Newton's first law of equlibrio because the system moves at constant speed:

∑Fy =0

F-W= 0

42N -W =0  

W = 42N

(b) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.41 m/s²

We apply Newton's second law because the system moves at constant acceleration:

 m= W/g , m= W/9.8 ,  m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

∑Fy =m*a

m= W/g , m= W/9.8 ,  m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

F-W= ( W/9.8 )*a

42-W=  ( W/9.8 )*1.41

42= W+0.1439W

42=1.1439W

W= 42/1.1439

W= 36.7  N
