Match the lithification processes.

Physics
1 answer:
butalik [34]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Recrystallization: contact pressure causing grains to "fuse" together

Cementation : precipitation of bonding agents between grains

Compaction : increase in density due to weight of overburden

Lithification is the process by which sediments are converted into sedimentary rocks. During this process, recrystallication, compaction and cementation of mineral grains occur.

The process starts with the compaction of sediments. The over burden weight of new sediments in the basin adds to the one originally deposited. This compresses the sediment. The volume of reduced and the density increases.

Recrystallization follows suit as the contact pressure of grains makes them fuse together. It is more like reworking of sediments. In this process, cementing materials can precipitate and cause sediments to be more fused together.

This is why most sediment are made up of clasts in a matrix of cementing materials.

An insulated container with a divider in the middle contains two separated gases. Gas 1 is initially at a higher temperature tha
12345 [234]

Answer:

Option (D) On average, the molecules of gas 1 lose some of their kinetic energy to the molecules of gas 2 through collisions, resulting in the two gases eventually having the same temperature.

Explanation:

From the question given, Gas 1 was initially at a higher temperature than Gas 2.

As the two gas mixes together, there will be a transfer of heat from Gas 1 molecules to Gas 2 molecules. Now, as this continues over a period of time, the two gas will eventually have the same temperature.

Un satélite geoestacionario se encuentra a una distancia de 120.000 km sobre la superficie de Júpiter. Determine: a. El periodo
Lisa [10]

Answer:

a) a geostationary satellite is that it is always at the same point with respect to the planet,

b) f = 2.7777 10⁻⁵ Hz

c)                           d)   w = 1.745 10⁻⁴ rad / s

Explanation:

a) The definition of a geostationary satellite is that it is always at the same point with respect to the planet, that is, its period of revolutions is the same as the period of the planet

  •                T = 10 h (3600 s / 1h) = 3.6 104 s

b) the period the frequency are related

                T = 1 / f

                 f = 1 / T

                 f = 1 / 3.6 104

                 f = 2.7777 10⁻⁵ Hz

c) the distance traveled by the satellite in 1 day

The distance traveled is equal to the length of the circumference

                 d = 2pi (R + r)

                 d = 2pi (69 911 103 + 120 106)

                 d = 1193.24 m

d) the angular velocity is the angle traveled between the time used.

                 .w = 2pi /t

                  w = 2pi / 3.6 10⁴

                  w = 1.745 10⁻⁴ rad / s

how fast is

                  v = w r

                  v = 1.75 10-4 (69.911 106 + 120 106)

                  v = 190017 m / s

An 85 kg man and his 35 kg daughter are sitting on opposite ends of a 3.00 m see-saw. The see-saw is anchored in the center. If
wolverine [178]

Answer:

0.54m

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

length of seesaw= 3m

mass of man m1= 85kg

weight = mg

W1= 85*10= 850N

mass of daughter m2= 35kg

W2= 35*10= 350N

distance from the center= (1.5-0.2)= 1.3m

Step two:

we know that the sum of clockwise moment equals the anticlockwise moment

let the distance the must sit to balance the system be x

taking moment about the center of the system

350*1.3=850*x

455=850x

divide both sides by  850

x=455/850

x=0.54

Hence the man must sit 0.54m from the right to balance the system
