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

A tow truck applies a force of 2600 N on a 2100 Kg car for a period of 9 seconds. What is the magnitude of the change in the car
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

P = 23400 [kg*m/s]

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of force by the time of force duration. It can be determined by means of the following equation.

P=F*t

where:

P = momentum [kg*m/s]

F = force = 2600 [N]

t = time = 9 [s]

Now replacing:

P=2600*9\\P=23400 [kg*m/s]

Compare the densities of two objects that have the same volume, but one feels heavier than the other.
motikmotik
We know, density = Mass / Volume
It represents density is directly proportional to mass and indirectly proportional to volume. So, at a constant volume, object with larger density will appear more heavier than that of object with smaller density.

In short, Heavier object will have the higher density than the other.

Hope this helps!

Focus Question: What are SI units, and why are they used?
igomit [66]

Answer:

a system of physical units ( SI units ) based on the metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, candela, and mole, together with a set of prefixes to indicate multiplication or division by a power of ten.

Explanation:

The problem here was not the error; it was the failure of NASA's systems engineering, and the checks and balances in our processes, to detect the error. That's why we lost the spacecraft.
