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.

You endanger a swimmer with the wake from your boat. under minnesota boating laws, what have you done?
mixas84 [53]

The following enumeration is the list of actions which are considered to be illegal when operating your boat:

1   Operating the boat in a harsh or inconsiderate manner

2   Operating the boat in the absence of safety equipment

3   Actual weight exceeds the carrying capacity of the boat

4   Not prohibiting the riders to sit on gunwales, transom, stern, sides, bow or decking over the bow sides when the boat is underway, except when sufficient guards or railings are provided

5   Operating the boat or giving permission to other people to operate the boat while drunk or under illegal substances

6   Operating the boat and the wash or wake endanger any property or person

7   Operating the boat in an area designated for swimming

8   Operating the boat beyond a slow, no wake speed in locations marked as no wake zones

 

We can see that in this case, the rule # 6 is being trespassed. Therefore under Minnesota Boating Laws, we have committed an Illegal Operating Practice.

What ramp angle would produce an acceleration of 2 m/s2 for a cart rolling down? Assume no friction and that the angle is measur
r-ruslan [8.4K]
From Newton's second law:
a = F/mass
Therefore, acceleration of an object rolling a ramp would be:
a = g(sin theta) - friction coefficient (g) (sin theta)
The negative sine is due to the kinetic energy opposing the gravity

We are given that the friction coefficient is zero, the g is a constant = 9.8 m/sec and the acceleration is 2 m/sec^2
Substituting in the equation, we get:
2 = 9.8 sin(theta)
sin (theta) = 0.20408
theta = 11.7757 degrees

average speed = distance covered divided by travel time. do some algebra and multiply both sides of this relation by travel time
mars1129 [50]
Based on the scenario,
The thing that the result say about distance covered is :
it tells you that the distance covered is equal to the average speed times the travel time

hope this helps
