What causes sedimentary rock to change into metamorphic rock

Physics
1 answer:
trasher [3.6K]3 years ago

Sedimentary rock changes when it is exposed to extreme heat and pressure, but it can be caused by tectonic plate movement ( for heat ) and when the collide, you get the pressure.

Hope this helps, if not, comment below please!!!!

A spherical shell of radius 3.59 cm and a cylinder of radius 7.22 cm are rolling without slipping along the same floor. The two
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

(ω₁ / ω₂) = 1.9079

Explanation:

Given

R₁ = 3.59 cm

R₂ = 7.22 cm

m₁ = m₂ = m

K₁ = K₂

We know that

K₁ = Kt₁ + Kr₁ = 0.5*m₁*v₁²+0.5*I₁*ω₁²

if

v₁ = ω₁*R₁

and

I₁ = (2/3)*m₁*R₁² = (2/3)*m*R₁²

∴    K₁ = 0.5*m*ω₁²*R₁²+0.5*(2/3)*m*R₁²*ω₁²   <em>(I)</em>

then

K₂ = Kt₂ + Kr₂ = 0.5*m₂*v₂²+0.5*I₂*ω₂²

if

v₂ = ω₂*R₂

and

I₂ = 0.5*m₂*R₂² = 0.5*m*R₂²

∴    K₂ = 0.5*m*ω₂²*R₂²+0.5*(0.5*m*R₂²)*ω₂²   <em>(II)</em>

<em>∵   </em>K₁ = K₂    

⇒   0.5*m*ω₁²*R₁²+0.5*(2/3)*m*R₁²*ω₁² = 0.5*m*ω₂²*R₂²+0.5*(0.5*m*R₂²)*ω₂²

⇒  ω₁²*R₁²+(2/3)*R₁²*ω₁² = ω₂²*R₂²+0.5*R₂²*ω₂²

⇒  (5/3)*ω₁²*R₁² = (3/2)*ω₂²*R₂²

⇒  (ω₁ / ω₂)² = (3/2)*R₂² / ((5/3)*R₁²)

⇒  (ω₁ / ω₂)² = (9/10)*(7.22/ 3.59)²

⇒  (ω₁ / ω₂) = (7.22/ 3.59)√(9/10)

⇒  (ω₁ / ω₂) = 1.9079

Why do you think the outer planets have such extensive systems of rings and moons, while the inner planets do not?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Because of immense gravity

Explanation:

The formation of the Solar system was a very dynamic process. A lot of matter was thrown towards the outer solar system which further formed the Gas giants: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The size of these outer planets is huge so is their gravity.

Because of their huge gravity a lot of matter which was scattered in the outer solar system got attracted towards them. This matter is what make the rings of the outer planets. Also, because of immense gravity they captured larger bodies thus making them their Moons.

Which part of the drum vibrates when it produces sound?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Explanation:

For example, when a drum is struck, the flexible skin (sometimes called a membrane) of the drum vibrates. The compression and expansion of the air on either side of the vibrating membrane produces differences in air pressure. The pressure differences generate a sound wave that propagates outward from the drum surface.

A 0.540-kg bucket rests on a scale. Into this bucket you pour sand at the constant rate of 56.0 g/s. If the sand lands in the bu
romanna [79]

Answer:

a) 12.8212 N

b) 12.642 N

Explanation:

Mass of bucket = m = 0.54 kg

Rate of filling with sand  = 56.0 g/ sec = 0.056 kg/s

Speed of sand = 3.2 m/s

g= 9.8 m/sec2

<u>Condition (a);</u>

Mass of sand = Ms = 0.75 kg

So total mass becomes = bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

== > total weight = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N

Now impact of sand = rate of filling × velocity = 0.056 × 3.2 =  0.1792 kg. m /sec2=0.1792 N

Scale reading is sum of impact of sand and weight force ;

i-e

scale reading = 12.642 N+0.1792 N = 12.8212 N

<u>Codition (b);</u>

bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

==>weight = mg = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N (readily calculated above as well)

Round your answers to one decimal place.this parallel circuit has two resistors at 15 and 40 ohms. what is the total resistance?
lubasha [3.4K]
1) The equivalent resistance of two resistors in parallel is given by:
\frac{1}{R_{eq}}= \frac{1}{R_1}+ \frac{1}{R_2}
so in our problem we have
\frac{1}{R_{eq}} =  \frac{1}{15 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{40 \Omega}=0.092 \Omega^{-1}
and the equivalent resistance is
R_{eq} =  \frac{1}{0.092 \Omega^{-1}}=10.9 \Omega

2) If we have a battery of 12 V connected to the circuit, the current in the circuit will be given by Ohm's law, therefore:
I= \frac{V}{R_{eq}}= \frac{12 V}{10.9 \Omega}=1.1 A
