What process powers the rock cycle?

Advanced Placement (AP)
1 answer:
natka813 [3]3 years ago
5 0

There are many different answers but the main process is probably heat, heat will melt rock to make it igneous when it cools.  Heat will cause chemical and physical changes to change rock into metamorphic rock.  Heat will drive the forces that break down rock at the surface.  Heat will also cause the water cycle to precipitate water causing erosion and weathering. Heat will cause a freeze thaw cycle that breaks rock up.This creates sediment that can be transported by wind or water these depend on heat.Then the sediments will become sedimentary rock. Hope this helps! :)

The sum of Pete's and Sam's ages is 30. Five years ago, Pete was 3 times as old as Sam. How old is Sam?
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Sam is 10 years old.

Explanation:

Lets just say this was asked in 2020 meaning 5 years ago was 2015.

If Pete was 15 in 2015 and his age was 3x the age of Sam, Sam would be 5.

15/3= 5

Now that 5 years has passed since 2015 Sam is 10 and Pete is 20.

(15+5) + (5+5)

Adding the two ages in current times, the sum is 30.

20 + 10 = 30
