Density is an intensive property

Explanation:

The density of the stone and gravel are the same because density is an intensive property of matter. It does not depend on the amount of matter present in substance.

Density is defined as the amount of matter present per unit volume of a substance.

            Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

The density of every substance is unit no matter its volume or mass.

  • An intensive property is a property that does not depend on the amount of matter present.
  • This is why the stone and gravel will have the same density.
  • But the mass and volume are different. Such properties are called extensive properties.

What is the role of Temperature, density and air pressure in a convection cell?
scZoUnD [109]

Convection is a process which transfers the heat between the temperatures when fluid (i.e. liquid or gas) is in motion. Due to the presence of heat source, water temperature increases and also it will become less dense and rise. Hot air is less dense than cold. When air rises higher in the atmosphere its pressure gets down and it becomes colder.

What is the impact that a fast-food hamburger has on the Earth?
stepan [7]

Answer: Well, to first make a hamburger, you need beef which comes from cows. Cows produce lots of methane before they are killed. This methane is far more catastrophic than carbon dioxide. This methane heats up the Earth's atmosphere contributing to global warming. Also, cattle need a ton of food, water, and land grazing area just to raise them.

How do geologists use index fossils to determine the age of rock strata?
love history [14]

The index fossils are fossils that are found in the rock strata of certain geologic period, but they are also fossils that are very common and can be found in numerous places around the globe.

Because they can be found all over the globe, and they are indicative of certain geologic period, the geologists have started to use them as a simple way of determining the age of the rock strata. While this method can not provide the geologists with an accurate year for the formation of the rocks, it is still able to determine the relative age of the rocks. By determining the relative age with such ease by using the index fossils, the geologists are able to immediately make conclusions about the rock strata, have basic information about it, and largely be aware of the processes that formed them and influenced them.
