An unconformity, or abnormality in the layers of rocks, signifies that the process of layering was somehow interrupted. The only feasible choice for this would be (B), where erosion would have interrupted the layering process.

Yasmin determines the velocity of a car to be 15m/s. The accepted value for the velocity of the car is 15.6m/s. What is yasmins
zaharov [31]

Percent error is calculated as follows:

% = ( |15-15.6| / 15.6 ) *  100%

% = (0.6/15.6) * 100%

% = 0.0385 * 100%

% = 3.85%

Hope this helped!

Give examples of the one element from the alkaline earth metal group and one from the noble gases group. Include each element at
zhuklara [117]
Alkali metals: left column of your periodic table (not hydrogen, but anything below it). They have one valence electron, which they are happy to share in a reaction.

Halogens: second column from the right of your periodic table. They are one electron short of a full shell, so they are reactive in the opposite way that alkalis are--they want electrons.

Atomic number (number of protons) is the big number on the periodic table square. Hydrogen's is 1.

Atomic mass is a little number down below. For example, Hydrogen's is 1.008.

Neutrons are a tricky subject, because different isotopes of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons. You can't generally get this from the atomic mass, because the atomic mass is a weighted average of naturally occurring isotopes. Hydrogen can have 0,1, or 2 neutrons. To answer this, you'd have to choose a particular isotope from the table of isotopes (a completely different chart from the periodic table) which has a certain number of neutrons: n = weight - Z.

Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell. (The column of the table).

An aerobatic airplane pilot experiences weightlessness as she passes over the top of a loop-the-loop maneuver. The acceleration
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The radius of the loop is  20.66 km

Explanation:

let the radius of the loop be r

mass of airplane is m

At the top, the pilot experiences two radial forces, which are

1) Gravitational force is  mg

2) Centrifugal forces mv²/r out of the center

When the pilot experiences no weight,

then, mg = mv²/r

r = v² / g

 = 450² / 9.8

 = 20.66 x 10³3

 = 20.66 km

Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against at a rate of 50.0 kg/s and a speed of 42.0 m/s.
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Force, |F| = 2100 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against at a rate of 50.0 kg/s, \dfrac{m}{t}=50\ kg/s

Initial speed, v = 42 m/s

The momentum is reduced to zero, final speed, v = 0

The relation between the force and the momentum is given by :

F=\dfrac{p}{t}

F=\dfrac{mv}{t}

F=50\ kg/s\times 42\ m/s

|F| = 2100 N

So, the magnitude of the force exerted on the wall is 2100 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A thermally isolated system is made up of a hot piece of aluminum and a cold piece of copper; the aluminum and the copper are in
butalik [34]

Answer:

copper will have more change in temperature as compare with aluminum

Explanation:

Hot piece of copper is made in contact with cold piece of aluminium

So here thermal energy transfer will take place from copper to aluminium

so by energy conservation we can say that heat given by copper is same as the heat absorbed by aluminium.

now we have

m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2

here we know that

s_1 = specific heat capacity of copper

s_2 = specific heat capacity of aluminum

given that specific heat capacity of aluminium is more than double that of copper

so we can say

s_2 = 2s_1

so here if the mass of copper and aluminium is same then

\Delta T_1 = 2 \Delta T_2

so temperature change of copper is twice the temperature change of aluminium

So copper will have more change in temperature as compare with aluminum
