Five hundred million years ago, basaltic lava flowed in an area now known as Monticello, the historic home of Thomas Jefferson.

Some of this rock has since re-crystallized under intense heat and pressure and then has been eroded by wind and rain. The order of the rock cycle in this case is BEST described as

Explanation:

               Igneous -  metamorphic -  sedimentary

A rock cycle provides the cyclic transformation of one rock type to another in nature.

There are three main types of rock involved in the rock cycle;

  • igneous rocks are derived from the cooling and solidification of molten magma
  • metamorphic rocks are changed rocks subjected to intense pressure and temperature
  • sedimentary rocks are derived from rock sediments that have been lithified.

The history of the rock in Monticello begins with igneous rock formation. Basalt is an igneous rock that forms from the cooling and solidification of molten magma. Under intense pressure and temperature regimes, they are changed to metamorphic rocks.

Agents of denudation such as wind, water and glacier weathers the rock and disintegrates it. They are then carried into basins where they are deposited. Here they form sedimentary rock.

The process still goes on as the sedimentary rock gets taken into depth, they can either melt to form igneous rock or be changed to metamorphic rocks.

A bottle rocket takes off with a = 34.5 m/s2. It
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:3.4 seconds

Explanation:

Initial velocity(u)=0

acceleration=34.5m/s^2

Height(h)=200m

Time =t

h=u x t - (gxt^2)/2

200=0xt+(34.5xt^2)/2

200=34.5t^2/2

Cross multiply

200x2=34.5t^2

400=34.5t^2

Divide both sides by 34.5

400/34.5=34.5t^2/34.5

11.59=t^2

t^2=11.59

Take them square root of both sides

t=√(11.59)

t=3.4 seconds

Two large parallel conducting plates carrying opposite charges of equal magnitude are separated by 2.20 cm. Part A If the surfac
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

5308.34 N/C

Explanation:

Given:

Surface density of each plate (σ) = 47.0 nC/m² = 47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2

Separation between the plates (d) = 2.20 cm

We know, from Gauss law for a thin sheet of plate that, the electric field at a point near the sheet of surface density 'σ' is given as:

E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

Now, as the plates are oppositely charged, so the electric field in the region between the plates will be in same direction and thus their magnitudes gets added up. Therefore,

E_{between}=E+E=2E=\frac{2\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

Now, plug in  47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2 for 'σ' and 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m for \epsilon_0 and solve for the electric field. This gives,

E_{between}=\frac{47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2}{8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m}\\\\E_{between}= 5308.34\ N/C

Therefore, the electric field between the plates has a magnitude of 5308.34 N/C

The place theory of hearing is better than frequency theory at explaining pitch perception for __________ sounds
atroni [7]
The answer is : Low frequency sounds

place theory is a theory of hearing which states that our perception of sound depends on where each component frequency produces vibrations along basilar membrane, which is very sensitive to low frequency sound
