Answer:

(3) Gabbro

Explanation:

Gabbro is a  dark-colored, coarse-grained and intrusive igneous rock. Generally, this type of rock is having dark green or black color. The main composition of this type of rock is augite and plagioclase minerals.

The approximate composition of Gabbro rock given as

1 .25% plagioclase feldspar  

2.5% amphibole

3.10% olivine

5460% pyroxene

Therefore the answer will be (3).

(3) Gabbro

Burka [1]
The structure and curvature of the Earth results in beams of sunlight glancing off the equator and reaching other areas of the Earth. This means that the areas at the equator receive more energy as sun's rays hit them directly.

H e l p.. I have no idea what any of this is, what is the first step of the hydrogen fusion process
klasskru [66]
The answer to this question is the first choice. In the hydrogen fusion process, the first step involves the collision of two protons to emit an antielectron and a neutrino. Only the first choice of
                             1_1H + 1_1H →2_1H + e^+ + v + energy
reflects this process. A hydrogen ion with a mass of one and number protons of 1 means a proton.

A car moves with a speed of 72 km/h for 15 minutes and then with a speed of 80 km/h for the next 12 minutes. The total distance
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The total distance covered by the car is 3,810.08 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed of the car, u = 72 km/hr = 20 m/s

initial time, t₁ = 15 minutes = 900 s

final speed of the car, v = 80 km/hr = 22.22 m/s

final time, t₂ = 12 minutes = 720 s

The acceleration of the car is given as;

a = \frac{v-u}{t_2 -t_1} \\\\a = \frac{22.22-20}{900-720}\\\\a = 0.0123 \ m/s^2

The total distance covered by the car is given as;

v² = u² + 2as

where;

s is the total distance covered by the car

22.22² = 20² + 2(0.0123)s

22.22²  - 20² = 2(0.0123)s

93.728 = 0.0246s

s = 93.728 / 0.0246

s = 3,810.08 m

Therefore, the total distance covered by the car is 3,810.08 m

The first law of Thermodynamics is another way to describe the law of conservation of Energy. It states that:
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

C. The change of internal energy of a system is the sum of work and heat spent on it.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be destroyed but can only be converted or transformed from one form to another. Therefore, the sum of the initial kinetic energy and potential energy is equal to the sum of the final kinetic energy and potential energy.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf .......equation 1

Where;

Ki and Kf are the initial and final kinetic energy respectively.

Ui and Uf are the initial and final potential energy respectively.

The law of conservation of Energy is another way to describe the law of Thermodynamics. It states that the change of internal energy of a system is the sum of work and heat spent on it.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

ΔU = Q − W

Where;

ΔU represents the change in internal energy of a system.

Q represents the net heat transfer in and out of the system.

W represents the sum of work (net work) done on or by the system.
