Why is the rock cycle really a cycle?

1 answer:

6 0

The rock cycle is a group of changes that describes the formation, breakdown, and reformation of a rock as a result of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic processes. All rocks are made up of minerals. Volcanic processes form extrusive igneous rocks. Extrusive rocks cool quickly on or very near the surface of the earth.

What speed would a fly with the mass of 0.55 g need in order to have the same kinetic energy as the automobile in the term 19

larisa86 [58]

<u>The question does not provide enough information to complete the answer, so I'll assume the needed data to help you to solve your own problem</u>

Answer:

<em>The fly should need to move at 9,534.6 m/s to have the same kinetic energy as the automobile</em>

Explanation:

<u>Kinetic Energy </u>

Is the capacity of a body to do work due to its speed and is computed by

$\displaystyle K=\frac{mv^2}{2}$

We are not given enough data to compare the kinetic energy of the fly with that of the automobile. We'll assume the following characteristics:

$m_a=500\ kg$

$v_a=10\ m/s$

So its kinetic energy is

$\displaystyle K_a=\frac{(500)10^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle K_a=25,000\ J$

The mass of the fly is

$m_f=0.55\ gr=0.00055\ kg$

To have the same kinetic as the automobile:

$\displaystyle \frac{m_fv_f^2}{2}=25,000$

Solving for $v_f$

$\displaystyle v_f=\sqrt{\frac{2(25,000))}{m_f}}$

$\displaystyle v_f=\sqrt{\frac{50,000}{0.00055}}$

$v_f=9,534.6\ m/s$

The fly should need to move at 9,534.6 m/s to have the same kinetic energy as the automobile

A rectangular field is to be enclosed on four sides with a fence. Fencing costs $2 per foot for two opposite sides, and $3 per f

borishaifa [10]

<h2>Dimension for cheap enclose = 32.45 ft x 23.52 ft</h2>

Explanation:

Area of rectangular field, A = 830 ft²

Length = l

Width = w

So we have

l x w = 830

$l=\frac{830}{w}$

Fencing costs $2 per foot for two opposite sides, and $3 per foot for the other two sides.

Cost for fencing, C = 2 x 2 x w + 3 x 2 x l = 4 w + 6 l

$C=4w+6\times \frac{830}{w}$

For minimum cost we have derivative is zero

$dC=4\times dw-6\times \frac{830}{w^2}\times dw\\\\0=4\times dw-6\times \frac{830}{w^2}\times dw\\\\w^2=1245\\\\w=32.45ft\\\\lw=830\\\\l\times 32.45=830\\\\l=23.52ft$

Dimension for cheap enclose = 32.45 ft x 23.52 ft

Which of the following are single-displacement reactions?

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

A & D

Explanation:

A single-displacement reaction is a chemical reaction whereby one element is substituted for another one in a compound and thereby generating a new element and also a new compound as products.

From the options, only options A & D fits this definition of single-displacement reactions.

For option D: Both left and hand and right hand sides each have one element and one compound. We can see that K is substituted from KBr to join Cl to form KCl and Br2 on the right hand side.

For option A: Both left and hand and right hand sides each have one element and one compound. We can see that OH is substituted from 2H2O to join Mg to form Mg(OH)2 and H2 on the right hand side.

The other options are not correct because they don't involve only and element and a compound on each side of the reaction.
