Why is the geologic record important to scientists

1 answer:

7 0

The geologic record is the history of Earth as recorded in the rocks that make up its crust. Rocks have been forming and wearing away since Earth first started to form, creating sediment that accumulates in layers of rock called strata. The way these strata are arranged and what fossils are in them give scientists clues about what Earth was like billions of years ago.

un litro de un gas es calentado a presión constante desde 20°C hasta 60°C que volumen final ocupará dicho gas?

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Final volume, V2 = 3 Litres

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial volume, V1 = 1 litre

Initial temperature, T1 = 20°C

Final temperature, T2 = 60°C

To find the final volume, we would use Charles' law;

Charles states that when the pressure of an ideal gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Charles is given by;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Making V2 as the subject formula, we have;

V1T2 = V2T1

V2 = (V1T2)/T1

Substituting into the formula, we have;

V2 = (1 * 60)/20

V2 = 60/20

Final volume, V2 = 3 Litres

5. 3 women push a stalled car. Each woman pushes with a 400N force. What is the mass of the car if the car accelerates at 0.85 m

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The the mass of the car can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{f}{a} \\$

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

$m = \frac{400}{0.85} \\ = 470.58823...$

We have the final answer as

How does battery generate electric current in a circuit?

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

C. It creates negative electric charges and pushes them into the circuit

Explanation:

A battery has three main parts. The Cathode (Positive), the Electrolytes (energy source), and the Anode (negative). The anode takes energy from the electrolytes and creates more electrons. And because subatomic particles with the same charge don't like being in the same place, they move through the circuit to reach the cathode because opposites attract.

I hope this helps!
