Answer: 7022.2kg/m³, yes, I was cheated

Explanation:

Density of an object is defined as the ratio of the mass of the object to its volume. Mathematically;

Density = Mass/Volume

Note that the unit of both mass and volume must be standard unit.

Given mass = 0.0158kg

Dimension of the metal = 5mm×15mm×30mm

Note that 1mm = 0.001m

The volume of the metal will be

0.005×0.015×0.03

= 0.00000225m³

Density = 0.0158/0.00000225

Average density of the metal = 7022.2kg/m³

Since the standard density of Gold is 19,320kg/m³ and is higher than the density prescribed for me, it shows the I was cheated.

In addition to plate tectonics, what is the other main driving force of the rock cycle?
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:  Option B

Explanation:

Rocks contains pores and spaces in them in which water gets trapped, and this causes the rock to break as water increases its volume due to freezing. This rocks are then eroded and are carried away into the streams and channels. The rivers and streams can carry particles of various shapes and size, which are further transported and deposited at a different place.

This particles or sediments then gets compacted and lithified in due course of time, and forms sedimentary rocks.

Water is also needed to undergo metasomatism process, that creates a metamorphic rock.

Hence, water flow is also an important driving force in rock cycle, along with tectonic activities.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

An 8000-N car is traveling at 12 m/s along a horizontal road. When the brakes are applied, the car skids (slides) to a stop in 4
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

192000 J or 192 kJ

Explanation:

Work done = Force × distance moved along the direction of force.

From the question,

W = F×d............... Equation 1

Where W = work done by the car, F = Force of the car, d = distance move by the car along the direction of the force.

We can calculate for d using the equation of motion

d = (v+u)t/2..................... Equation 2

Where v = Final velocity of the car, u = Initial velocity of the car, t = time.

Given: u = 12 m/s, v = 0 m/s(skids to a stop), t = 4.0 s

Substitute into equation 2

d = (12+0)4/2

d = 24 m.

Also given: F = 8000 N

Substitute into equation 1

W = 8000×24

W = 192000 J

W = 192 kJ.
