How do rocks form and transform?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alina [70]3 years ago
6 0
There are three main types of rocks: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. Each of these rocks are formed by physical changes—such as melting, cooling, eroding, compacting, or deforming—that are part of the rock cycle. Sedimentary rocks are formed from pieces of other existing rock or organic material.

Typical residential shower controls mix streams of hot water (140 F, or 60 C) with cold water (60 F, or 15 C) to form a stream o
sammy [17]

Answer:

  4:5

Explanation:

Let x represent the fraction of the mix that is hot water. Then the temperature of the mix is ...

  60x +15(1-x) = 40·1

  45x = 25 . . . . . . . . . subtract 15

  x = 25/45 = 5/9 . . . divide by the coefficient of x

This is the fraction that is hot water, so the fraction that is cold water is ...

  1-5/9 = 4/9

The ratio of cold to hot is ...

  cold : hot = (4/9) : (5/9) = 4 : 5

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

The problem assumes that the energy contained in a given mass of water is proportional to its temperature. That is almost true, sufficiently so that we can reasonably use that approximation.

If heat loss is figured into the problem, then additional information is needed regarding the energy content of water at temperatures in the range of interest. That is not provided by this problem statement, so we have ignored the heat loss.
