Answer:

C. Downward force from rocks in the crust  

Explanation:

Diamonds are different forms of element carbon. Diamonds are formed in Mantle and they require large amount of temperature and pressure for their formation. These come up in higher layers due to volcanic eruptions. The pressure is caused by the downward force from the rocks in the crust. The pressure is not constant everywhere because the thickness of the layer varies. Thus, diamonds are not that common.

How to tell if something is an electrolyte
schepotkina [342]

Answer: If it has ions, it is an electrolyte

Explanation:

Let's start by explaining that electrolytes are compounds that contain charged particles or<u> ions</u>, which can be cations (positive ions) or anions (negative ions).

So, it is this composition that makes an electrolytic material conduct electricity.

In this sense, the way to identify if a material is an electrolyte or not, is knowing whether it is composed of ions or not.

Sphere A has a charge of +2 x 10 to the power of -6 coulomb and is brought into contact with a similar sphere, B which has a cha
Setler [38]
When sphere A and B are brought in contact and separated, charge on each sphere becomes [2x10^-6 + (-4x10^-6)]/ 2 = -1x10^-6 C.

That is, charge is equally separated and is the average of charges on both spheres. The reason behind equal charge on both spheres after separation is, when they are kept in contact, their potential difference becomes same.

A man pushes a shopping cart across a level floor. What force resists the effort force? A) gravity B) friction C) the normal for
Kipish [7]

Answer:

B) Friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force that acts when an object is sliding along a surface. Microscopically, this force is due to the fact that the two surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they have "imperfections" that cause a force that opposes the motion of the object.

For an object sliding on a flat surface, the force of friction has magnitude:

F_f = \mu_k mg

where

\mu_k is the coefficient of kinetic friction

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

The direction of the force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion of the object.

In reality, friction also acts if the object is at rest and it is pushed by a force; in this case, we talk about static friction, and its magnitude is

F_f = \mu_s mg

where \mu_s is called coefficient of static friction, and it is generally larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction.

If the frequency of q of a trait is 0.4, what is the frequency of p?
lianna [129]
In genetic traits, p and q represent the relative probabilities of the two alleles manifesting. If these two are the only options (ex. a dominant one and a recessive one), then the probabilities of both must sum up to 1. In this case, since we are given that q = 0.4, then p + q = 1, p + 0.4 = 1, and p = 0.6.
