explain the main reasons why pressure and temperature play a critical role in the stability of gas hydrates. Name two situations

where methane hydrate deposits predominantly occur and discuss the key challenge(s) in locating and harvesting methane hydrate under each situation.

Sloan [31]3 years ago

Using the phase diagram of methane, the pressure and temperature play a critical role in its stability since a slight change in the pressure or temperature will cause a phase change. At low temperature and high pressure, methane hydrate becomes solid (methane hydrate + ice). When the temperature is increased, it becomes liquid. This is one of the main challenges in harvesting methane hydrate, its instability.

Two blocks a and b ($m_a>m_b$) are pushed for a certain distance along a frictionless surface. how does the magnitude of the
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

the magnitude of the work done by the two blocks is the same.

Explanation:

The work done by block a on block b is given by:

W_a = F_a d

where Fa is the force exerted by block a on block b, and d is the distance they cover.

The work done by block b on block a is given by:

W_b = F_b d

where Fb is the force exerted by block b on block a, and d is still the distance they cover.

For Newton's third law, the force exerted by block a on block b is equal to the force exerted by block b on block a, therefore

F_a = F_b

and so

W_a=W_b

What is the rock cycle and how does it change the lithosphere?
Ira Lisetskai [31]
The rock cycle is a basic concept in geology that describes the time-consuming transitions through geologic time among the three main rock types: sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous. As the adjacent diagram illustrates, each of the types of rocks is altered or destroyed when it is forced out of its equilibrium conditions. An igneous rock such as basalt may break down and dissolve when exposed to the atmosphere, or melt as it is subducted under a continent. Due to the driving forces of the rock cycle, plate tectonics and the water cycle, rocks do not remain in equilibrium and are forced to change as they encounter new environments. The rock cycle is an illustration that explains how the three rock types are related to each other, and how processes change from one type to another over time. This cyclical aspect makes rock change a geologic cycle and, on planets containing life, a biogeochemical cycle.

Plate movements drive the rock cycle by pushing rocks back into the mantle, where they melt and become magna again. Plate movements also cause the folding, faulting and uplift of the crust that move rocks through the rock cycle.

an astronaut drops a hammer and an egg while standing on the surface of the moon. which one will the surface first?
elena-s [515]
The two will fall at the same speed and reach the surface at the same time. This is because the two will experience the same gravitational acceleration on the moon. However, on the earth surface the two will land on the surface of the earth at the same time due to air resistance such that the egg will experience a higher air resistance than the hammer. On, the moon, where there is no noticeable atmosphere there is no air resistance on either object and both fall at the same speed. It is also important to note that their mass doesn't affect their speed.
