4 0

Answer

Metamorphic rocks form from heat and pressure changing the original or parent rock into a completely new rock. The parent rock can be either sedimentary, igneous, or even another metamorphic rock. The word "metamorphic" comes from Greek and means "To Change Form". ... This changing of rock types is called the "Rock Cycle".

The average density of a carbon-fiber-epoxy composite is 1.615 g/cm3. the density of the epoxy resin is 1.21 g/cm3 and that of t
ra1l [238]
The composite material is composed of carbon fiber and epoxy resins. Now, density is an intensive unit. So, to approach this problem, let's assume there is 1 gram of composite material. Thus, mass carbon + mass epoxy = 1 g.

Volume of composite material = 1 g / 1.615 g/cm³ = 0.619 cm³
Volume of carbon fibers = x g / 1.74 g/cm³ 
Volume of epoxy resin = (1 - x) g / 1.21 g/cm³ 

a.) V of composite = V of carbon fibers + V of epoxy resin
0.619 = x/1.74 + (1-x)/1.21
Solve for x,
x = 0.824 g carbon fibers
1-x = 0.176 g epoxy resins

Vol % of carbon fibers = [(0.824/1.74) ÷ 0.619]*100 =<em> 76.5%</em>

b.) Weight % of epoxy = 0.176 g epoxy/1 g composite * 100 = <em>17.6%</em>
     Weight % of carbon fibers = 0.824 g carbon/1 g composite * 100 = <em>82.4%</em>
