This is <span>true.
</span>
Why?

Rock comes in many forms and is caused in different ways. Lava comes up from volcanoes (yes quickly) but what happens then? It is gradually eroded by weather. It breaks down into small rocks and stones and then into fine grains often forming very rich soil. Eventually, it reaches rivers where it is deposited as mud. Some carry on into the sea as salt. Both mud and silt solidify.

Suppose you add two vectors A and B . What relative direction between them produces the resultant with the greatest magnitude? W

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Same direction to produce maximum magnitude and opposite direction to produce minimum magnitude

Explanation:

Let a be the angle between vectors A and B. Generally when we add A to B, we can split A into 2 sub vectors, 1 parallel to B and the other perpendicular to B.

Also let A and B be the magnitude of vector A and B, respectively.

We have the parallel component after addition be

Acos(a) + B

And the perpendicular component after addition be

Asin(a)

The magnitude of the resulting vector would be

$\sqrt{(Acos(a) + B)^2 + (Asin(a))^2}$

$= \sqrt{A^2cos^2a + B^2 + 2ABcos(a) + A^2sin^2a}$

$= \sqrt{A^2(cos^2a + sin^2a) + B^2 + 2ABcos(a)}$

$= \sqrt{A^2 + B^2 + 2ABcos(a)}$

As A and B are fixed, the equation above is maximum when cos(a) = 1, meaning a = 0 degree and vector A and B are in the same direction, and minimum with cos(a) = -1, meaning a = 180 degree and vector A and B are in opposite direction.

At which position is the southern hemisphere experiencing spring?

atroni [7]

Hey! I know you've probably already finished the quiz already, but I just wanted to let you know the correct answer should be D. I wish I could tell you why, but I ended up getting that answer through a bit of trial and error myself... Anyway, good luck!

Many counties in Florida missed many school days in the fall of 2004 due to hurricanes that year. A solution for how to make up

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

108 extended days

Explanation:

Regular school hours a day = 6 hr

No. of school days to make up by extending the regular hours = 3 days

Amount of time added to the regular hours of school = 10 min

No. of extended school days to make up the 3 school days by following the above mentioned criteria be x.

Time of school hours in 3 days = $3\times 6= 18\,hr\,\,\,\, ;or\,\,\, (18\times 60)\,minutes$

$\therefore x=\frac{18\times 60}{10}$

$x=108\,\,days$ are required to make up 3 days of school having 6 hours of regular timing with 10 minutes of add-on time each day.

The quark composition of the proton and neutron are, respectively, uud and udd, where u is an up quark (charge +23e) and d is a

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Option C=> π+.

Explanation:

Just as it is given in the question above, we can see that the addition or combination of proton and neutron gives what is known as QUARKS.

Quarks are not easily measured because one can not see and study a quark independently; quarks move in multiples together.

The study of Quarks is very important in physics because they relate very well with electromagnetic force, strong force, weak force and Gravitational force.

"...When the remaining quarks combine to form a single particle, it is a π+".

π+ is a meson or a pion and it contains quarks and anti-quarks too
