The answers are:
1. Compaction - grains move closer together.
2. Foliation - parallel alignment of platy grains.
3. Recrystallization - grains take on a larger size.
4. Burial metamorphism - when a rock changes because of surrounding pressure. 

Compaction produce rocks that have a tighter grain arrangement due to heat and pressure the rock undergoes. This process reduces the size of the rock.
 
Foliation occurs when pressure is put on one side of the grains more than any other direction. This creates platy structured rocks, which align under pressure. 

Recrystallization is a process where the chemical composition  a rock is changed. The mineral grains that are produced in this process are larger than the original grains.

Burial metamorphism occurs when rocks get buried deeper and deeper. They change due to the pressure from the overlying layers.

the answer is;

foliation: the parallel alignment of platy grains.

recrystallization: when a rock changes because of surrounding pressure.

compaction: when grains move closer together.

burial metamorphism: when grains take on a larger size.

What is the period of a wave with a frequency of 100 Hz and a wavelength of 2.0 m
spin [16.1K]

The answer for the following answer is answered below.

  • <u><em>Therefore the time period of the wave is 0.01 seconds.</em></u>
  • <u><em>Therefore the option for the answer is "B".</em></u>

Explanation:

Frequency (f):

The number of  waves that pass a fixed place in a given amount of time.

The SI unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz)

Time period (T):

The time taken for one complete cycle of vibration to pass a given point.

The SI unit of time period is seconds (s)

Given:

frequency (f) = 100 Hz

wavelength (λ) = 2.0 m

To calculate:

Time period (T)

We know;

According to the formula;

<u>f =</u>\frac{1}{T}<u></u>

Where,

f represents the frequency

T represents the time period

from the formula;

  T = \frac{1}{f}

 T = \frac{1}{100}

  T = 0.01 seconds

<u><em>Therefore the time period of the wave is 0.01 seconds.</em></u>

What is my displacement if i walked 200 meters west then turned around and walked 150 meters east
Alinara [238K]
You're walking in one direction, and then the exact opposite of that direction, so you simply have to subtract the two distances. 
200-150=50
You're 50 meters west of where you originally started.
You're west because 200 meters west is greater than 150 meters east. If the distance walked east was greater than the distance walked west, you would've been east of your starting position.

What does training for hypertrophy do to your body
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The answer is A.

What is the force required to produce a 1.4 Nm torque when applied to a door at a 60.0º angle and 0.40 m from the hinge?
Marysya12 [62]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The component of the applied force perpendicular to the door is
F * sin(60°) = 0.866F N

Because the moment arm is 0.40 m, the torque is
(0.866F N)*(0.4 m) = 0.3464F N-m

This torque is equal to 1.4 N-m, therefore
0.3464F = 1.4
F = 4.04 N

Answer: 4.04 N
