During metamorphism, what is the major effect of chemically active fluids?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Option b

Explanation:

Metamorphism is the process where the variation of the geological texture resulting from the different arrangement of the minerals or the variation of minerals in protoliths, i.e., pre- existing rocks take place such that there occurs no change in state of the protolith, i.e., it does not melt into magma.

The change takes place as a result of the presence of chemically active fluids, heat and pressure.

There is a reaction between the chemically active fluid and the rock through which it passes and promotes the movement of the dissolved ions of silicate and promotes the growth of the mineral grains.

Why does a hot-air balloon rise?
prohojiy [21]

Answer: The weight of the air displaced by the balloon is less than the volume of the balloon.

Explanation:

A hot air balloon is a cloth wrap that contains several thousand cubic meters of air inside (a large volume of air). The burner heats the liquid propane to a gaseous state to generate a huge flame, which can reach more than 3 meters, thus heating the air mass inside the balloon. In this way,<u> its density is modified with respect to the air that surrounds it</u>, because the hot air is lighter than the outside air (less dense), causing the balloon to rise and float.

Now, if we know that the density of a body d is directly proportional to its mass m and inversely proportional to its volume V:

d=\frac{m}{V}

We can deduce that <u>by increasing the volume of the body, its density will decrease.</u>

This is proof of <em><u>Archimedes' Principle</u></em>:  

<em>A body totally or partially immersed in a fluid at rest, experiences a vertical upward thrust equal to the mass weight of the body volume that is displaced.</em>

In this case the fluid is the air outside. So, the warm air inside the balloon, being less dense, will weigh less than the outside air and therefore will receive an upward pushing force or thrust that will make the balloon ascend.

Suppose that on earth you can throw a ball vertically upward a distance of 1.20 m. Given that the acceleration of gravity on the
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

7.04 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement on Earth = 1.2 m

a = Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = 1.67 m/s²

a = Acceleration due to gravity Earth= 9.81 m/s²

Accelration going up is considered as negetive

Initial Velocity of the ball

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2\times -9.81\times 1.2-0^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 1.2}\\\Rightarrow u=4.85\ m/s

Assuming that the ball is thrown with the same velocity on the Moon, displacement of the ball is

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-4.85^2}{2\times -1.67}\\\Rightarrow s=7.04\ m

The displacement of the ball on the moon is 7.04 m

which one of the following is not an example of a combination reaction a. 2H2O(I)---&gt; 2H2(g)+O2(g) b. 2K+CI2---&gt;2KCI c. 2H
Alexxandr [17]
The answer would be A.

Combination reaction, otherwise known as synthesis reaction, occurs when two or more substances react and form a single, more complex substance.

A combination reaction looks like this in an equation:

                                     <em> A + B         </em><em>→       </em><em>AB</em>
                                   reactants              product

So from two reactants they become one product. 
Let's take a look at choice A.

                                   2H₂O(l)       →      2H₂(g) + O₂(g)
                                  reactant                     product(s)

Notice that from one substance, it broke down into two substances. So this is not a combination reaction. This is what you call a <em>decomposition reaction. </em>
