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.

Calculate the distance the gecko covers when sprinting from rest to 2 m/s in a time of 1.5 s.
KIM [24]

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

a = v/t

a = 2/1,5 = 4/3

x = 1/2 a t² + vt + x

x = 1/2 × 4/3 × 9/4 = 3/2 =1.5 m

Why do you want the water to drip off the metal before it is placed in the calorimeter?
kipiarov [429]

The metal will no longer give the correct temperature reading if we do not drip off the water before it is placed in the calorimeter.

Explanation:

  • The calorimeter is a device used to measure the flow of heat from a chemical reaction or a physical change.
  • A basic calorimeter is consists of a metal container of water above the combustion chamber. The process of measuring heat is called calorimetry.
  • As soon as the water begins to boil the metal should be placed so that it can obtain a constant flow of thermal energy from the boiling water instead of placing the water in cold water receiving inconsistent temperature.
  • When you remove the tube with a metal form from boiling water, you hesitate before dumping the metal, the metal will no longer be the temperature of boiling water.
