Salsk061 [2.6K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Limestone is a carbonate chemical sedimentary rock often chemically called calcium carbonate.

The mineral calcium carbonate makes up the framework of this rock that has become the staple material used for cement production.

Chemically, the formula is given as CaCO₃. The rock accumulates from the a rich deposit of calcite, which is the mineral that is made up of calcium carbonate to form the limestone.

          CaCO₃         -        Calcite      -        Limestone

     compound                mineral                   rock

Limestone is a rock and the compound it is made up of is calcium carbonate. In some cases, a Ca-Mg carbonate occurs with limestone and it is called a dolomite.

Write the equation expressing the relationship "y varies directly as x." use k as the constant of proportionality.
Alexeev081 [22]

The equation expressing the statement "y varies directly as x"  is y=kx.

Explanation

The statement that y varies directly as x is analogous to saying that  the ratio of y to x is constant. In other words, when x increases, y likewise increases and that when x decreases, y decreases proportionally.

Mathematically, we express the relationship that the ration of y is to x is constant is expressed as; \frac{y}{x} =k where k is the constant of proportionality.

We can then solve the relationship for y to determine the correct form of the relationship as shown below,

\frac{y}{x} =k\\\rightarrow y=kx

Suppose that you have been chosen for a space mission to a distant planet. Due to the length of time you'll be away from Earth y
Contact [7]

Answer:

I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

Explanation:

Since time dilates in moving objects, we use the formula t = t₀/√(1 - β²) where t = time in space vehicle, t₀ = time on earth = 9 hours and β = v/c where v = speed of space vehicle = 0.8c.

So, t = t₀/√(1 - β²)

t = 9/√(1 - (v/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8c/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.64)

= 9/√0.36

= 9/0.6

= 15 hr

So, according to a timer on the space vehicle, I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

Difference between reproducibility and replicability
victus00 [196]
Suppose you are doing an experiment where you determine the value of one parameter, say density of a liquid. You have two methods in doing this. By finding the mass and volume, and by using a densitometer. Reproducibility is when you get the same value of density for both methods. Replicability is when you have similar results in one method. So, replicability is a measure of precision, while reproducibility is a measure of accuracy.

Why a small car can stop easier than an 18 wheeler while traveling at 70 mph down the interstate?
almond37 [142]
Smaller cars have less momentum than bigger cars. What’s in motion stays in motion but objects with more momentum (can be from weight or from speed but in this case it’s about weight) tend to stay in motion longer.

Two piano strings produce beats. Frequencies of the strings are 1560 Hz. and 1563 Hz. Choose the correct frequency of the beats.
kakasveta [241]

Beat frequency is given by the difference of two frequencies played together

f_{beat} = |f_1 - f_2|

given that

f_1 = 1560 Hz

f_2 = 1563 Hz

Now

f_{beat} = |1560- 1563| Hz

f_{beat} = 3 Hz
