Which best explains the relationship between parent rock and soil composition

1 answer:

8 0

Soil is the result of chemical or physical weathering of a parent rock .this is so since the soil is just tiny particle of the huge parent rock and hence it affects soil composition . if the parent rock was made of limestone then the soil composition will constitute calcite and aragonite mineral elements from the limestone parent rock.

Answer:

x=7227

y=1678

(7227,1678)

Explanation:

Ok, check the picture I attached you, because of the problem don't give us aditional information, let's asume that the projectile is fired from an initial position x=0 and y=0. Now let's use projectile motion equations, but firs let's find the initial velocity components in x-axis and y-axis:

$v_ox=v_o*cos(\theta_o)=300*cos(55)=172.0729309m/s$
