Answer: The correct options are:
<em>exerts more pressure as it increases
</em>
<em>measures how tightly molecules are packed
</em>
<em>equals mass divided by volume</em>
Explanation:
Air density can be described as mass per unit of volume of the volume of air.
As the altitude increases, the air density tens to decrease. Hence, option A is not correct.
The density of the air determined how many atoms of air can occur in a particular volume, In other words, it determines how tightly or loosely atoms of air are packed in a particular volume.
Hence, when the air density will increase, the molecules will be more tightly packed and the pressure will be more.
Answer:
The age of the rock = 2800.6 million years = 2.8 billion years.
A simple method of analysis similar to Carbon dating is used to obtain the required age of the rock. Radioactive substances decay according to first order reaction kinetics. So, plugging all the required parameters into the general equation for amount of substance left in a first order decay gives us the age of the rock.
Explanation:
Half life of Uranium-235 = 700 million years (from literature)
The decay of radioactive substances follow first order reaction kinetics.
The general equation is given as
A(t) = A₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ
A(t) = Amount of radioactive substance left after a particular time = 6.25%
A₀ = initial amount of radioactive substance = 100%
t = time that has passed since the beginning = age of the rock = ?
k = decay constant
The decay constant is related to the half life (T) through the relation,
k = (In 2)/T
k = (0.693/700) = 0.00099 /million years
A(t) = A₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ
6.25 = 100 e⁻ᵏᵗ
0.0625 = e⁻ᵏᵗ
In e⁻ᵏᵗ = In 0.0625 = -2.7726
-kt = - 2.7726
t = (2.7726/0.00099) = 2800.6 million years
t = 2.8 billion years.
Hope this Helps!!!
Metamorphic rocks form from heat and pressure changing the original or parent rock into a completely new rock.
Answer:
Cultural diffusion
Explanation:
One of the factors that helps a cultural group preserve their native language is by cultural diffusion.
Culture is the way of life of a people. The elements of culture includes food, fashion, language etc.
To preserve the culture of a people, the process of cultural diffusion is very essential.
By cultural diffusion, we mean that there is a spread of a culture from one place to another.
