They are two types of metamorphic rocks which differ on the basis of formation and appearance.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Foliated metamorphic rocks are a type of metamorphic rocks which appear like layers which is caused due to heat exposure and pressure.
  • They are formed due to high pressures.
  • Examples are phyllite, slate, schist
  • Non-foliated metamorphic rocks do not have such a layered appearance.
  • They are formed due to low pressures and also because of contact metamorphism. This is why they are mostly called as hornfels.
  • Examples are hornfels, marble

We have three identical metallic spheres A, B, C. Initially sphere A is charged with charge Q, while B and C are neutral. First,
larisa [96]

Answer:

The final charges of each sphere are:   q_A = 3/8 Q , q_B = 3/8 Q ,               q_C = 3/4 Q

Explanation:

This problem asks for the final charge of each sphere, for this we must use that the charge is distributed evenly over a metal surface.

Let's start Sphere A makes contact with sphere B, whereby each one ends with half of the initial charge, at this point

                q_A = Q / 2

                q_B = Q / 2

Now sphere A touches sphere C, ending with half the charge

                q_A = ½ (Q / 2) = ¼ Q

                q_B = ¼ Q

Now the sphere A that has Q / 4 of the initial charge is put in contact with the sphere B that has Q / 2 of the initial charge, the total charge is the sum of the charge

                  q = Q / 4 + Q / 2 = ¾ Q

This is the charge distributed between the two spheres, sphere A is 3/8 Q and sphere B is 3/8 Q

                  q_A = 3/8 Q

                  q_B = 3/8 Q

The final charges of each sphere are:

                q_A = 3/8 Q

                q_B = 3/8 Q

                q_C = 3/4 Q

<u>Answer</u>

D. Base units

<u>Explanation</u>

Basic units are also called fundamental units. They are the standard units agreed internationally for measurements. Most of these measurements are taken from the ground and they are used to derive other units. They are seven in number. There are:

The metre (m)

The kilogram (kg)

The second (s)

The ampere (A)

The kelvin (K)

The candela (cd)

The mole (mol)

serg [7]

Answer:

\Delta U = 1640 J

Explanation:

As we know by first law of thermodynamics that for ideal gas system we have

Heat given = change in internal energy + Work done

so here we will have

Heat given to the system = 2.2 kJ

Q = 2200 J

also we know that work done by the system is given as

W = 560 J

so we have

\Delta U = Q - W

\Delta U = 2200 - 560

\Delta U = 1640 J
