The answer is:

d.It’s a composite because it’s a mixture of cement, sand, and other granular pieces.

The explanation:

Concrete is a composite, since it is composed of various elements like sand, gravel & water.  

Aggregate consists of large chunks of material in a concrete mix, generally a coarse gravel or crushed rocks such as limestone, or granite, along with finer materials such as sand. Cement, most commonly Portland cement, is associated with the general term "concrete.

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Radio waves have a wavelength between 10^{-9}m and 10^{-12}m

While,

X rays have a wavelength between 1m and 10km.

=> It is one of the condition of diffraction that the obstacle (coming in the way) must be comparable with the size of the wavelength.

=> This shows, that radio waves have a wavelength which is comparable with the size of buildings and can really easily diffract through it

=> While, X-rays are big enough to diffract through the wall.

So, if an X-ray technician stands behind a wall during the use of her machine, she will remain safe.

Why can work be thought of as the transfer of energy? Please help it's physics
deff fn [24]
That is because work requires energy. According to the law of conservation of energy, it cannot be created or destroyed. When doing work, energy change forms and gets transferred to the object until it is released.
for example, when you lift up an object and place it on a higher elevation, you transferred energy to it and gave it potential energy. The potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy when the object falls down, and if it hits a surface, the energy will scatter, vibrating the areas around it and producing sound.
Also, work= force X distance. The energy does not go away, but rather get changed into some other form of energy

Which statement accurately describes what happens when water turns to steam in terms of energy?
Fynjy0 [20]
The correct answer is D. The water absorbs energy which causes the water molecules to have more kinetic and potential energy, changing their configuration from a liquid to a gas.

A force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume is called
bulgar [2K]


The best answer is D.

Stress is a force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume. Because stress is a force, it adds energy to the rock, which is stored in the rock until either the rock breaks or changes shape.

There are three kinds of stress, namely shearing, tension and compression.

Shearing-  force that pushes a mass of rock in two opposite directions and can cause rock to break and  slip apart or change shape.

Tension -  force that pulls on the crust, stretching rock so that it becomes thinner in the middle.

Compression - force that squeezes rock until it folds or breaks
