Igneous rocks are conglomerates, predominantly composed of rounded

gravel

Explanation:

The statement that igneous rocks are conglomerate predominantly composed of rounded gravel is not correct. Igneous rocks are rocks formed from magma that cools and solidifies.

Conglomerates are sedimentary rocks that are made of rounded clasts in a matrix.
They differ from igneous rocks that crystallize from molten magma.
Sedimentary rocks are usually derived from the process of weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition on the earth surface.
Igneous rocks forms from crystallized magma which can be on the surface or deep within the crust.

An engineer has the task of producing an aluminum alloy with a density of 3.0 grams per cubic centimeter. She comes up with the

pochemuha

Answer:

The best option is for the following option m = 15 [g] and V = 5 [cm³]

Explanation:

We have that the density of a body is defined as the ratio of mass to volume.

$Ro =m/V$

where:

Ro = density = 3 [g/cm³]

Now we must determine the densities with each of the given values.

For m = 7 [g] and V = 2.3 [cm³]

$Ro=7/2.3\\Ro=3.04 [g/cm^{3} ]$

For m = 10 [g] and V = 7 [cm³]

$Ro=10/7\\Ro=1.42[g/cm^{3} ]\\$

For m = 15 [g] and V = 5 [cm³]

$Ro=15/5\\Ro=3[g/cm^{3} ]\\$

For m = 21 [g] and V = 8 [cm³]

$Ro=21/8\\Ro=2.625[g/cm^{3} ]\\$

The distance between adjacent nodes in a standing wave pattern in a length of string is 25.0 cm:A. What is the wavelength of wav

mina [271]

A) 50 cm

B) 10000 cm/s

Explanation

Step 1

If you know the distance between nodes and antinodes then use this equation:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{\lambda}{2}=D \\ \text{where}\lambda\text{ is the wavelength} \\ D\text{ is the distance betw}een\text{ nodes} \end{gathered}$

then, let

$D=\text{ 25 cm }$

now, replace to find the wavelength

$\begin{gathered} \frac{\lambda}{2}=25 \\ \text{Multiply both sides by 2} \\ \frac{\lambda}{2}\cdot2=25\cdot2 \\ \lambda=50\text{ Cm} \end{gathered}$

so, the wavelength is

A) 50 cm

Step 2

The speed of a wave can be found using the equation

$v=\lambda f$

or velocity = wavelength x frequency,

then,let

$\begin{gathered} \lambda=50\text{ cm} \\ f=200\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}$

replace and evaluate

$\begin{gathered} v=\lambda f \\ v=50\text{ cm }\cdot200\text{ HZ} \\ v=10000\text{ }\frac{\text{cm}}{s} \end{gathered}$

B) 10000 cm/s

I hope this helps you

A group of students is measuring the change in momentum of an object. Which set of lab equipment would be most in measuring the

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The momentum of an object is defined as the mass of the object times the velocity of the object, as P = m*v.

So the equipment needed would be:

Something to measure the mass of the object, like a balance.

Something to measure the speed of the object, like a doppler radar, or a simpler thing may be a cronometer, with that you can measure the amount of time that the object needs to travel a given distance, and with that you can obtain the speed of the object.

Now you can notice that speed is different than velocity, this is true, velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, then you need something to fix the direction in which the object moves, in this way you can determine the velocity.
