<h3>Answer;</h3>

c. 1, 4, 3, 2

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Sedimentary rocks are among the three major types of rocks, others being igneous rocks and metamorphic rocks. Sedimentary rocks result from the deposition and cementation of minerals or organic particles on the ocean floor or other water bodies on the surface of the earth.
Sedimentary rocks are formed through the following steps;

1) weathering of preexisting rocks, 

2) transport of the weathering products, 

3) deposition of the material, then

4) compaction, and

5) cementation of the sediment to form a rock.

The first step in the formation of sedimentary rock is weathering of preexisting rocks. The second step is transport of the weathering products. The third step is deposition of the material. And at the end there is compaction and cementation of the sediment to form a rock.
According to this, the following shows the correct order of steps in the formation of sedimentary rocks:
C. 1, 4, 3, 2
Rocks are weathered.Small pieces of rocks are carried by water.They are deposited in layers.The sediments are compacted together.

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between frequency and wavelength?

liraira [26]

For a wave:

v = fλ

v is the velocity, f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength.

Assuming the velocity of the wave doesn't change...

If you increase its frequency, its wavelength will shorten.

Returning once again to our table top example of a horizontal mass on a low-friction surface with m = 0.254 kg and k = 10.0 N/m

Julli [10]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 0.254 kg

Spring constant [tex[\omega_{0}= 10.0\ N/m[/tex]

Force = 0.5 N

y = 0.628

We need to calculate the A and d

Using formula of A and d

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{F_{0}}{m}}{\sqrt{(\omega_{0}^2-\omega^{2})^2+y^2\omega^2}}$ .....(I)

$tan d=\dfrac{y\omega}{(\omega^2-\omega^2)}$ ....(II)

Put the value of $\omega=0.628\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-0.628)^2+0.628^2\times0.628^2}}$

$A=0.0198$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times0.628}{((10.0^2-0.628)^2)}$

$d=0.0023$

Put the value of $\omega=3.14\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-3.14)^2+0.628^2\times3.14^2}}$

$A=0.0203$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times3.14}{((10.0^2-3.14)^2)}$

$d=0.0120$

Put the value of $\omega=6.28\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-6.28)^2+0.628^2\times6.28^2}}$

$A=0.0209$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times6.28}{((10.0^2-6.28)^2)}$

$d=0.0257$

Put the value of $\omega=9.42\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-9.42)^2+0.628^2\times9.42^2}}$

$A=0.0217$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times9.42}{((10.0^2-9.42)^2)}$

$d=0.0413$

Hence, This is the required solution.

A 62 kg skier is moving at 6.5 m/s on frictionless horizontal snow-covered plateau when she encounters a rough patch 3.50 m long

Degger [83]

Answer:

(A). The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B). The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of skier = 62 kg

Speed = 6.5 m/s

Length = 3.50 m

Coefficient kinetic friction = 0.30

Height = 2.5 m

(A) we need to calculate the work done by friction in crossing the patch

Using formula of work done

$W=-\mu mg\times l$

Put the value into the formula

$W=-0.30\times62\times9.8\times3.50$

$W=-637.98\ J$

The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B) we need to calculate the speed of skier

Using conservation of energy

$K.E_{i}+U_{i}-W_{friction}=K.E_{f}+U_{f}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+mgh-\mu mgl=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2+U_{f}$

Final potential energy is zero

So, $\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+mgh-\mu mgl=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2$

$\dfrac{1}{2}v_{2}^2=\dfrac{1}{2}v_{1}^2+gh-\mu gl$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{2}v_{2}^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times6.5^2+9.8\times2.5+0.30\times9.8\times3.50$

$v_{2}=\sqrt{2\times55.915}$

$v_{2}=10.57\ m/s$

The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

Hence, (A).The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B).The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.
