Answer:

Metamorphic rock is classified by texture and composition. The texture of a metamorphic rock can be either foliated and appear layered or banded, or non-foliated and appear uniform in texture without banding. Foliated rocks contain many different kinds of minerals, but non-foliated rocks contain only one main mineral, which contributes to their more uniform appearance. Igneous rocks are classified according to mode of occurrence, texture, mineralogy, chemical composition, and the geometry of the igneous body.

What kind of speed occurs when an object covers equal distance in an equal amount of time?

KatRina [158]

Not 100% sure if its right.

When an object covers equal distances in equal amounts of time, it is moving at a constant speed.

A rectangular block of solid carbon (graphite) floats at the interface of two immiscible liquids.

Sergio039 [100]

Explanation:

Let us take the volume of block is x.

Since, the block is floating this means that it is in equilibrium. Formula to calculate net force will be as follows.

$F_{net} = Buoyancy force(F_{b}) - weight force(w)$

Also, buoyancy force $(F_{b})$ = (volume submerged in water × density of water) + (volume in oil × density of oil)

$(F_{b})$ = $(0.592 V \times \rho) + (1 - 0.592)V \times 1000 g$

= $(0.592 V \times \rho + 408 V)$ g

As, W = V × density of graphite × g

It is given that density of graphite is $2.16 g/cm^{3}$ or 2160 $kg/m^{3}$ .

So, W = 2160 V g

$F_{net}$ = (0.592 V \rho + 408 V) g - 2160 V g = 0

$0.592 \rho$ = 1752

$\rho$ = 2959.46 $kg/m^{3}$ or 2.959 $g/cm^{3}$ is the density of oil.

It is given that mass of flask is 124.8 g.

Mass of 35.3 $cm^{3}$ oil = $35.3 \times 2.959$ 104.7 g

Hence, in second weighing total mass will be calculated as follows.

(124.8 + 104.7) g

= 229.27 g

Thus, we can conclude that in the second weighing mass is 229.27 g.
