Answer:

Steep and unstable slopes can produce landslides and mud-flows, forming coarse-grained rocks.

Magma erupted on the surface can form a lava flow that cools quickly, resulting in volcanic glass.

Some volcanic ash rises vertically in an eruption column, cools before accumulating on the surface, and forms deposits that are pegmatite.

Some volcanic ash forms pyroclastic flows that accumulate while hot and can become welded to some extent.

Explanation:

The natural instability of the slopes is the reason of the landslides. When the rocks and huge amount of earth move down from a slope, the phenomena is said to be a landslide.

Lava is the molten material which erupts out of a volcano.

During the process of volcanic eruption, the ask which cools down before getting collected is termed to be pegmatite.

On the other hand, pyroclastic is the term used to denote the ash which remains hot at their accumulation.

Steep and unstable slopes can produce LANDSLIDES AND MUDFLOWS , forming coarse-grained rocks.  

Landslides occur because of a compromise in the natural stability of a slope. It is characterized by masses of earth and rock rapidly moving down fast in the slant. Mudflows, are also a form of mass wasting attributed by extreme surging flow of liquefied debris and water.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Magma erupted on the surface can form a LAVA FLOW that cools quickly, resulting in volcanic glass.  

Lava flow is a process in volcanic eruptions. Lava flows are oozing streams of molten rock from an erupting vent. Lava runs according to its type and viscosity, steepness of the landscape, whether the lava is flowing as a broad sheet through a tube or channel, and how rapid the production of lava is. When the lava cools immediately, it solidifies without crystallization and becomes a glasslike rock.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some volcanic ash rises vertically in an ERUPTION COLUMN , cools before accumulating on the surface, and forms deposits that are pegmatite.

Eruption column is emitted during an explosive eruption, as a column or a vertical cloud of ash and tephra in gases. It forms as crystalline granite measuring from several centimeters up to several meters high when it cools before accumulating.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some volcanic ash forms PYROCLASTIC FLOW that accumulate while hot and can become WELDED to some extent.

Pyroclastic flow is also referred to as pyroclastic density current or pyroclastic cloud. It is tephra as hot as 1000 degrees Celsius, swiftly moving away from the volcano speeding 700 km/h at most. Many pyroclastic flows that are thick become welded—compact and consolidated.

Professor Stefanovic is spinning a bucket of water by extending his arm and rotating his shoulder in class to show the effects o
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

a ) 2.368 rad/s

b) 3.617 rad/s

Explanation:

the minimum angular velocity that Prof. Stefanovic needs to spin the bucket for the water not to fall out can be determined by applying force equation in a circular path

i.e

F_{inward } = F_G + F_T   ------ equation (1)

where;

F_{inward} = m *a_c

F_{inward} = m*r* \omega^2

Also

F_G = m*g

F_T = 0          since; that is the initial minimum angular velocity to keep the water in the bucket

Now; we can rewrite our equation as :

mr \omega^2= mg + 0\\\omega^2 = \frac{m*g}{m*r}\\\omega^2 = \frac{g}{r}\\\omega = \sqrt{\frac{g}{r} \ \  }     ------ equation \ \ \ {2}

So; Given that:

The rope that is attached to the bucket is lm long  and his arm is 75 cm long.

we have our radius r = 1 m +  75 cm

= ( 1 + 0.75 ) m

= 1.75 m

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Replacing our values into equation (2) ; we have:

\omega = \sqrt{ \frac{9.81}{1.75}}\\\omega = 2.368 \  rad/s

b) if he detaches the rope and spins the bucket by holding it with his hand ; then the radius = 0.75 m

∴

\omega = \sqrt{ \frac{9.81}{0.75}}\\\omega = 3.617 \  rad/s

When you drive through deep water, you should dry out your brakes by _____________. pumping your brakes and driving in low gear
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

By Applying pressure to the brakes

Explanation:

Driving cars through deep water that is more than 10cm can make the cars to float. Most modern cars are usually water- tight so they can start to float through water that is about 30cm deep, fast moving water is very powerful so one needs to be very careful when driving.

If the brakes are wet test them by pressing or tapping on them gently.

You can as well dry brakes by driving in low gear and applying pressure to the brakes.

Benjamina started her walk from the front door of her ground floor apartment. She walked 6 meters to the corner of the building
Cloud [144]
The distance is the total distance she walked which is 16 meters adding the 6 meters to the corner and 10 meters to her friend's apartment. Her displacement is the distance from her original starting point so you set up a triangle with side lengths of 6 and 10 and solve for the hypotenuse which gives you a displacement of 11.66 meters.

How do asteroids and comets differ?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Asteroids: Asteroids are generally made up of rocky material, metals and their size are large in  comparison to comets. Asteroid belt is found between Jupiter and Mars.

Comets: Comets are made up of ice, dust and rocky material. Generally smaller in size and are far from the Sun. With each orbit nearing the sun ice of the comet vaporize in form of blazing tail.
