A liquid requires enthalpy of vaporization to transform into vapor or gas at its boiling point.  Here the element absorbs heat from surroundings or heat source.

This energy is used in breaking the forces of attraction among the atoms and molecules of the element. The molecules get separated to higher distances. The energy is converted in to the kinetic energy of the molecules in gaseous form and into the internal energy in terms of the temperature of the gas.

Granite is mostly used in building work places whereas Gneiss is used for making tombstones, flooring, etc. Why do you think so?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Granite is durable, as it is hard and tough.

Gneiss has resistance to pressure and mechanical impacts

Explanation:

Granite is an igneous rock. It is mostly used in building works and construction because they are very durable. They are hard and tough and they have no internal structures.

Gneiss is used for flooring, ornamental stone, tombstones because of the fact that it shows resistances to pressure and also mechanical impacts.

<u>how they are formed in nature:</u>

In nature, granite is formed from the cooling down of hot molten magma and it's solidification before it reaches the surface of the earth.

In nature, gneiss is as a result of igneous rock or sedimentary rocks metamorphosing. Gneiss and granite are kind of similar. When subjected to great heat, granite becomes gneiss

a mass spring system makes 50 complete osillations in 10 seconds. what is the period and frequency of the oscillations
Oxana [17]

Answer: Period = 0.2 seconds; frequency = 5Hz

Explanation:

Number of oscillations = 50

Time required = 10 seconds

Period (T) = ?

Frequency of the oscillations (F) = ?

A) Recall that frequency is the number of oscillations that the mass spring system completes in one second.

i.e Frequency = (Number of oscillations / time taken)

F = 50/10 = 5Hz

B) Period, T is inversely proportional to frequency. i.e Period = 1/Frequency

T = 1/5Hz

T = 0.2 seconds

Thus, the the period and frequency of the oscillations are 0.2 seconds and 5Hz respectively.
