Why is the rock cycle really a cycle?

Physics
1 answer:
Naddik [55]3 years ago
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.

An airplane cabin is pressurized to 570 mmhg. what is the pressure inside the cabin in atmospheres?
abruzzese [7]
1 atm corresponds to 760 mmHg, so we can set up a simple proportion to find how many atmospheres correspond to 570 mmHg:
1 atm: 760 mmHg = x: 570 mmHg
and from this, we find
x= \frac{1 atm \cdot 570 mmHg}{760 mmHg} =0.75 atm

Explain what happens to a light wave that hits the surface of a pool.
brilliants [131]

A light wave that hits the surface of a pool gets refracted and gives us an apparent image of the surface of the pool, following the concepts of refraction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let’s recall the concept of refraction when a light wave passes from medium of rarer to denser. There is a change in the speed of light while travelling from medium of rarer to denser.

There can be a change in the direction as well. This property is known as “Refraction” and the best example to see refraction is watching the surface of a clean pond, lake or pool.

When the light travels from a rarer medium (air) to a denser medium (water), it changes its angle of direction and gets refracted and hit to our eye lenses. With this, we see the surface of the pool at a changed angle and it seems to be a bit shallow than its original depth.
