Answer:

D. 5.6 g/cm^3

Explanation:

On the average seismic velocity increases with increase in depth due higher the pressure and more compaction

sand and shales in the Niger Delta Basin density–velocity relationship is

P = 0.31×V^0.25

A derivation of the original Gardner equation to calculate the average densities for sands and shales in wells.

ρ = α ×V^β

where

ρ = bulk density in g/cm3,

V = P-wave velocity,

α = 0.31 for V (m/s) and 0.23 for V(ft/s) and

β = 0.25.

Such that

ρ = 0.31 ×V^0.25

So the fastest seismic velocity will be in the densest material which is D. 5.6 g/cm3

What state of matter is at 35 Celsius
Otrada [13]
Different forms of matter have different melting/boiling points. For example, at 100 degrees Celsius, H2O (water) will turn from lliquid to gas. But NaOH (table salt) doesn't even go from solid to liquid until some 800 degrees Celsius. So, in order to figure out which state matter is at 35 Celsius, you'd have to be more specific about what kind of matter...

FinnZ [79.3K]
Pyridoxine contains 11 hydrogen atoms, 8 carbon atoms, 3 oxygen atoms, and 1 nitrogen atom. The chemical formula would be C8H11NO3. A chemical formula of a substance tells the number of atoms of the elements that is involved in the compound. Pyrodoxine is commonly known as vitamin B6. It is mostly found in food like meat, whole grains, nuts and avocados. Also, it is can be present in dietary supplements. It has a number of important functions in the body. Dietary supplements are manufactured to prevent vitamin B6 deficiency. Also, it is used in treating a specific type of anemia or the lack of red blood cells.

An atom is a small building block that forms matter. Many different models of an atom have been made over the years. Which of th
puteri [66]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is A) The atom has changed over the years.</em>

Explanation:

Option A is not correct because an atom does not change. It remains the same always. The structure of an atom will always contain neutrons, protons and electrons.

Scientific theories tend to change over time as new information is brought up. Novel techniques lead to more advanced experiments and results. As a result, a scientific theory is subjected to change whenever evidence is found for a new theory which challenges the older one.

The atomic theory has changed many times due to novel scientific techniques and experiments.
