Caves are formed from:

Physics

Ratling [72]4 years ago

Caves are formed by the dissolution of limestone. Rainwater picks up carbon dioxide from the air and as it percolates through the soil, which turns into a weak acid. This slowly dissolves out the limestone along the joints, bedding planes and fractures, some of which become enlarged enough to form caves

Answer:

The correct answer is limestone.

Explanation:

A cave is the product of undone limestone.

This stone is weakened by the rain and carbon dioxide that is absorbed by the soil, this causes the stone to fracture, sometimes enough to form a cave.

Where there is more water flow, the bigger the cave will be.

What is necessary for a cave to form is a stone that can be diluted with water.

Because of gravity, water will always want to go down, this is what will cause the rock to dissolve forming different types of caves.

A rocket is fired at 100 m/s at an angle of 37, what was its speed at the top of its path?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

0m/s

Explanation:

Since its fired at an angle, at the top there will be a split second where the velocity will be 0, as it has a parabolic shape, so the speed at the top of its path is 0

You place a light bulb 8 cm in front of a concave mirror. You then move a sheet of paper back and forth in front of the mirror.
Alika [10]

sorry - late reply...just stumbled across tis...hope u can still use it :)


By the mirror equation: 1/di + 1/do = 1/f

<span>
</span>

<span>where di = distance to image = +12cm (+ for real image)</span>


and do = distance to object = +8cm


Substitute and solve for f, the focal length

<span><span>
1/12 + 1/8 = 1/f
</span><span>
1/f = (8 + 12) / 12 * 8 = 20/96
</span><span>
so f = 96/20 = 4.8 cm</span>

An advantage of light microscopes compared to electron microscopes is that light microscopes _____.
ivolga24 [154]
<span>C is the correct answer. Electron microscopes require a vacuum to work, so living cells cannot be seen because they cannot respire. Light microscopes use a ray of visible light instead of a beam of electrons to magnify something so it can be seen by the naked eye. There are two different types of electron microscope: transmission (TEM) and scanning (SEM).</span>

What happens to parallel light rays that strike a concave lens?
torisob [31]

Answer:

They diverge on refraction

Explanation:

When parallel light rays strike a concave lens, they will diverge that is they spread out .

Concave lens is also known as diverging lens, which means that when parallel rays of light strike on it, the lens spreads out the light rays ( that is it diverges the rays of light) that are refracted through it.

At the middle  of concave lens is thinner.  

When light is passes through the lens they diverge it or spread out.

The concave lens causes light rays to bend away or diverge from its axis since the concave lens is a diverging lens.
