Sedimentary rocks are the result of igneous rocks breaking down.This is a slow process so there is not as much broken down as there is not broken down.

Explanation:

Because sedimentary rocks are made of minerals deposited in layers at earth's surface. The processes, temperatures, and pressures that make other rocks damage or deflate any fossils in them.

In connective tissue, the role of elastic fibers is to __________.
blagie [28]
The role of elastic fiber is to keep the tissue length(or elasticity). That means if the tissue is stretched the elastic fiber will exert force to make it back into the normal length. This fiber can be found<span> in skin and lack of it will make wrinkle. Other connective tissue would be collagen which will give strength</span>

a ball of diameter 10 cm and mass 10 grams is dropped in a container of water. the cross sectional area of the container is 100
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

h = 9.83 cm

Explanation:

Let's analyze this interesting exercise a bit, let's start by comparing the density of the ball with that of water

       

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

         r = 10 cm = 0.10 m

         m = 10 g = 0.010 kg

         A = 100 cm² = 0.01 m²

the definition of density is

          ρ = m / V

the volume of a sphere

         V = \frac{4}{3} \ \pi r^{3}

          V = \frac{4}{3} π 0.1³

          V = 4.189 10⁻³ m³

let's calculate the density of the ball

           ρ = \frac{0.010}{4.189 \ 10^{-3} }

           ρ = 2.387 kg / m³

the tabulated density of water is

         ρ_water = 997 kg / m³

we can see that the density of the body is less than the density of water. Consequently the body floats in the water, therefore the water level that rises corresponds to the submerged part of the body. Let's write the equilibrium equation

            B - W = 0

            B = W

             

where B is the thrust that is given by Archimedes' principle

           ρ_liquid  g V_submerged = m g

           V_submerged = m / ρ_liquid

we calculate

            V _submerged = 0.10 9.8 / 997

             V_submerged = 9.83 10⁻⁴ m³

The volume increassed of the water container

           V = A h

            h = V / A

let's calculate

            h = 9.83 10⁻⁴ / 0.01

            h = 0.0983  m

this is equal to h = 9.83 cm

What is the minimal mass of helium (density 0.18 kg/m3) needed to lift a balloon carrying two people in a basket, if the total m
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:   
 M[min] = M[basket+people+ balloon, not gas] * ΔR/R[b] 
 Î”R is the difference in density between the gas inside and surrounding the balloon. 
 R[b] is the density of gas inside the baloon.   
 ==================================== 
 Let V be the volume of helium required. 
 Upthrust on helium = Weight of the volume of air displaced = Density of air * g * Volume of helium = 1.225 * g * V   
 U = 1.225gV newtons 
 ---- 
 Weight of Helium = Volume of Helium * Density of Helium * g 
 W[h] = 0.18gV N   
 Net Upward force produced by helium, F = Upthrust - Weight = (1.225-0.18) gV = 1.045gV N  -----

 
 Weight of 260kg = 2549.7 N 
 Then to lift the whole thing, F > 2549.7 
 So minimal F would be 2549.7 
 ---- 
 1.045gV = 2549.7 
 V = 248.8 m^3   
 Mass of helium required = V * Density of Helium = 248.8 * 0.18 = 44.8kg (3sf)   
 =====   
 Let the density of the surroundings be R 
 Then U-W = (1-0.9)RgV = 0.1RgV   
 So 0.1RgV = 2549.7 N 
 V = 2549.7 / 0.1Rg   
 Assuming that R is again 1.255, V = 2071.7 m^3 
 Then mass of hot air required = 230.2 * 0.9R = 2340 kg   
 Notice from this that M = 2549.7/0.9Rg * 0.1R so   
 M[min] = Weight of basket * (difference in density between balloon's gas and surroundings / density of gas in balloon)   
 M[min] = M[basket] * ΔR/R[b]

A car slows down from 27.7 m/s <br> to 10.9 m/s in 2.37 s. <br> What is its acceleration?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

- 7.088 m/s²

Explanation:

As we know that,

★ Acceleration = Change in velocity/Time

→ a = (v - u)/t

Here,

  • Initial velocity (u) = 27.7 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 10.9 m/s

→ a = (10.9 m/s - 27.7 m/s)/2.37 s

→ a = -16.8/2.37 m/s²

→ <u>a</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>7</u><u>.</u><u>0</u><u>8</u><u>8</u><u> </u><u>m/s²</u> [Answer]

Negative sign denotes that the velocity is decreasing.
