explain how metamorphic rocks are formed, and explain the differences between regional and contact metamorphism?

1 answer:

5 0

Metamorphic rocks form when pre-existing or parent rocks (whether igneous, sedimentary, or even metamorphic) are altered by heat, pressure, and the chemical activity of fluids. When the dominant altering factor is heat, usually from direct contact , it may undergo fundamental change in texture and recrystallization is called contact metamorphism. While regional metamorphism, where rocks texture and minerals are changed by heat and pressure.

In physics, a force is said to do work if, when acting, there is a displacement of the point of application in the direction of the force. For example, when a ball is held above the ground and then dropped, the work done on the ball as it falls is equal to the weight of the ball (a force) multiplied by the distance to the ground (a displacement). so in the proble, She does NO work since the force she applies to the case is vertical and the direction of motion is horizontal. Work is the force times the parallel distance

A body of mass 8 kg moves in a (counterclockwise) circular path of radius 10 meters, making one revolution every 10 seconds. You

Sav [38]

Answer:

Centripetal force is equal to 31.55 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the body m = 8 kg

Radius of the circular path r = 10 m

It is given that it makes 1 revolution in 10 seconds

Distance traveled in 10 seconds is equal to $d=2\pi r=2\times 3.14\times 10=62.8m$

Velocity is equal to $velocity=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{62.8}{10}=6.28m/sec$

We have to find the centripetal force

Centripetal force is equal to $F=\frac{mv^2}{r}=\frac{8\times 6.28^2}{10}=31.55N$

So centripetal force will be equal to 31.55 N

The Bohr model below represents which answer Choice

Anton [14]

Answer:

Na⁺

Explanation:

In the given atom:

Number of protons = 11

Number of neutrons = 12

So, the number of electrons = 10

The number of protons within an atom is used to determine the kind of atom we have been given.

Since the number of protons is the same as the atomic number, here the atomic number is 11 and this is Sodium .

In this sodium atom, the number of protons is more than the number of electrons;

Charge = number of protons - number of electrons = 11 - 10 = +1

So, we have a Na⁺
