When a rock becomes metamorphic, does it look the same as it did originally? Explain.

1 answer:

8 0

It would not look like the original, because those are rock that have undergone certain changes over time due to extreme heat and pressure. Metamorphic stones can be formed in various ways, some of which are : the pressure deep under the Earth's surface may create them, or they could be created due to the extreme heat caused by magma or by the intense collisions and friction of tectonic plates.

The 5-lb collar is released from rest at A and travels along the frictionless guide. Determine the speed of the collar when it s

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Explanation:

Stiffness of spring k equal to 4 lb/ft.

Unstretched length of the spring L is equal to 0.5 feet.

Weight of the collar W is 15lb

Radius of curvature of curve guide is 1 feet

length of vertical rod is 1.5 feet

Initial speed of collar when released from rest at A is 0 feet per seconds

use the energy conservation equation

$P_A +K_A=P_B+K_B$

Estimate the potential energy , component as position B as below

$P_A=Wh_1+\frac{1}{2} ks^2_1\\\\=5\times(1.5+1)+\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times(1.5+1-0.5)^2\\\\=20.5lb.ft$

Estimate the kinetic energy , component as position A as below

$K_A=\frac{1}{2} \frac{W}{g} V^2_1\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \frac{5}{32.2} \times0^2\\\\=0lb.ft$

Estimate the kinetic energy , component as position B as below

$K_A=\frac{1}{2} \frac{W}{g} V^2_2\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \frac{5}{32.2} \times V^2_2\\\\=00777V^2_2$

Substitute 20.5lb- ft for $P_A$

0.5lb-ft for $P_B$

0lb -ft for $K_A$

$0.0777V_2^2 for K_B$

$20.5+0=0.5+0.777V^2_2\\\\V^2_2=257.6\\\\V_2=16.05$

= 16.05ft/sec

On which factors does friction depend ?

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

It depends on 2 factors

the nature of the materials

the normal force.

Explanation:

It depends on 2 factors

the nature of the materials that are in friction and the treatment that they have followed. This factor is expressed by a numerical value called the coefficient of friction or friction.

the force exerted by one body on the other, that is, the normal force.

Nina [5.8K]

Answer: SG = 2.67

Specific gravity of the sand is 2.67

Explanation:

Specific gravity = density of material/density of water

Given;

Mass of sand m = 100g

Volume of sand = volume of water displaced

Vs = 537.5cm^3 - 500 cm^3

Vs = 37.5cm^3

Density of sand = m/Vs = 100g/37.5 cm^3

Ds = 2.67g/cm^3

Density of water Dw = 1.00 g/cm^3

Therefore, the specific gravity of sand is

SG = Ds/Dw

SG = (2.67g/cm^3)/(1.00g/cm^3)

SG = 2.67

Specific gravity of the sand is 2.67
