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!!!!

Calculate the heat flux (in W/m2) through a sheet of a metal 11-mm thick if the temperatures at the two faces are 350 and 110 ˚C
Masja [62]

q = 1156363.6W/m².

To calculate the heat flux per unit area (W/m²) of a sheet made of metal:

q = -k(ΔT/Δx)

q = -k[(T₂ - T₁)/Δx]

Where, k is the thermal conductivity of the metal, ΔT is the temperature difference and Δx is the thick.

With Δx = 11 mm = 11x10⁻³m, T₂ = 350°C and T₁ = 110°C, and k = 53.0 W/m-K:

q = -53.0W/m-K[(110°C - 350°C)/11x10⁻³m

q = 1156363.6W/m²

A 200 kg roller coaster is located at the top of a hill where the height is 30 m. What is the velocity when it reches the bottom
maw [93]

Assuming it starts at rest, the roller coaster only has potential energy at the top of the hill, which is

E_P=(200\,\mathrm{kg})(30\,\mathrm m)g

When it reaches the bottom, its potential energy will have converted to kinetic energy,

E_K=\dfrac12(200\,\mathrm{kg})v^2

where v is its velocity at that point. By the law of conservation of energy, assuming no loss of energy due to other sources (e.g. sound, heat), we have

E_P=E_K\iff(6000\,\mathrm{kg}\cdot\mathrm m)g=(100\,\mathrm kg})v^2

\implies v=\sqrt{60g}\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\approx24.2\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}
