Which type of sedimentary rock is formed from rock and mineral fragments weathered from rocks at earth’s surface?

Physics
1 answer:
Zanzabum3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct answer is detritic rocks.

Explanation:

Sedimentary rocks are rocks formed by the accumulation of sediments, particles of various sizes that are transported by water, ice or wind, which are subjected to physical and chemical processes, resulting in consolidated materials.

Sedimentary rocks formed from the accumulation of mineral deposits and rocks from erosion and deposited by gravity are called detritic rocks.

ivann1987 [24]

No temperature change occurs from heat transfer if ice melts and becomes liquid water (i.e., during a phase change). For example, consider water dripping from icicles melting on a roof warmed by the Sun. Conversely, water freezes in an ice tray cooled by lower-temperature surroundings.

The drag force pushes opposite your motion as you ride a bicycle. If you double your speed, what happens to the drag force?
timurjin [86]

Answer: The drag force goes up by a factor of 4

Explanation:

The <u>Drag Force</u> equation is:

F_{D}=\frac{1}{2}C_{D}\rho A_{D}V^{2} (1)

Where:

F_{D} is the Drag Force

C_{D} is the Drag coefficient, which depends on the material

\rho is the density of the fluid where the bicycle is moving (<u>air in this case) </u>

A_{D} is the transversal area of the body or object

V the bicycle's velocity

Now, if we assume C_{D}, \rho and A_{D} do not change, we can rewrite (1) as:

F_{D}=C.V^{2} (2)

Where C groups all these coefficients.

So, if we have a new velocity V_{n} , which is the double of the former velocity:

V_{n}=2V (3)

Equation (2) is written as:

F_{D}=C.V_{n}^{2}=C.(2V)^{2}

F_{D}=4CV^{2} (4)

Comparing (2) and (4) we can conclude<u> the Drag force is four times greater when the speed is doubled.</u>

The electric-power industry is interested in finding a way to store electric energy during times of low demand for use during pe
Stolb23 [73]

Answer: True

Explanation: Inductors are similar to resistors, due to the fact that they offer resistance to current flow, but Inductors are different from resistors in that, while resistors loss electric energy in a circuit in the form of heat, an inductor stores that energy in the form of a magnetic field.

As current passes through an inductor overtime it tends to store current in the form of magnetic field. Therefore the electric-power industry can store energy in large Inductors.

a car moving at 5 m/s accelerates at a rate of 10 m/s2 for 25 seconds. How far does it move during this time?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

t is time in s For example, a car accelerates in 5 s from 25 m/s to 3 5m/s. Its velocity changes by 35 - 25 = 10 m/s. Therefore its acceleration is 10 ÷ 5 = 2 m/s2
