Answer:

The first step in turning a rock into a sediment is Compaction .

Explanation:

Lithification is a process of changing rock into sediments. There are two steps for a rock to lithify. These steps are as follows

  • The first step of lithification is compaction where sediments are erosed together by weight of the it. Thus, the upper layers of sediments causes compaction of lower layers.
  • The next process of lithification is cementation. In this fluids fill the space between the loose particles.

Hence, the first step for turning rock into sediments is compaction.

Answer:

955.36 seconds ≈ 16 minutes

Explanation:

Power(P) is the rate of doing work(W)

That is, P = W/t, where t is the time.

multipying both sides with 't' and dividing with 'P', we get: t=W/P

Here, W = 5.35 x 10^10 J and P = 5.6 x 10^7 W ( 1 W = 1 J/s).

Therefore , on dividing W with P, we get 955.36 seconds.

I need help on number 5. We need to use one of the four kinematics equations.
Gnom [1K]

ANSWER

35.02m

EXPLANATION

Parameters given:

Initial velocity, u = 26.2 m/s

When the vase reaches its maximum height, its velocity becomes 0 m/s. That is the final velocity.

We can now apply one of Newton's equations of motion to find the height:

v^2=u^2-2as

where a = g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore, we have that:

\begin{gathered} 0=26.2^2-2(9.8)s \\ \Rightarrow19.6s=686.44 \\ s=\frac{686.44}{19.6} \\ s=35.02m \end{gathered}

That is the height that the vase will reach.
