Answer:

B. Landscape B

Explanation:

Shale is fine sediment pressed together to form rock.

Sandstone is larger (sand-grain-sized) sediment cemented together to form rock.

Shale erodes faster, as evidenced by the second attachment. That attachment shows erosion of a rock face consisting of interbedded shale and sandstone. The shale has receded significantly, leaving the sandstone layers with space between them.

Pls help<br> What graph indicates no reference to direction of motion, and explain why.

Komok [63]

Answer:

graph A

Explanation:

the slope of the distance-time graph is speed, speed is a scalar (with magnitudes but no direction)

but the slope for the velocity time graph is acceleration, acceleration is vector quantity ( has magnitude and direction)

A rock is thrown upward from the level ground in such a way that the maximum height of its flight is equal to its horizontal ran

marshall27 [118]

Answer

a) For the rock

$\dfrac{v_t^2sin 2\theta}{g} = \dfrac{v_t^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

$2sin\thetacos\theta = \dfrac{sin^2\theta}{2}$

$2cos\theta = \dfrac{sin\theta}{2}$

$tan\theta = 4$

$\theta = tan^{-1} 4$

$\theta = 76^0$

b) $\theta = 45^0$ for maximum range

$\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=\dfrac{(v_tcos 45^0)(2v_tsin 45^0)g}{(v_tcos 76^0)(2v_tsin 76^0)g}$

$\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=\dfrac{0.707\times 0.707)}{0.97\times 0.242}$

$\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=2.129$

$d_{max}=2.129 d$

c) The value of θ is the same on every planet as g divides out.

PLEASE HELP!

Anna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

At constant pressure , work done by gas = P x ΔV where P is pressure and ΔV is change in volume

ΔV = 9.2 - 5.6 = 3.6 L

3.6 L = 3.6 x 10⁻³ m³

ΔV = 3.6 x 10⁻³ m³

P = 3.7 x 10³ Pa

So work done

= 3.7 x 10³ x 3.6 x 10⁻³ J

= 13.32 J .

( c ) is the answer , because work is done by the gas so it will be positive.

What amount of heat is required to raise the temperature of 25 grams of copper to cause a 15ºC change? The specific heat of copp

Lina20 [59]

The amount of heat required is B) 150 J

Explanation:

The amount of heat energy required to increase the temperature of a substance is given by the equation:

$Q=mC\Delta T$

where:

m is the mass of the substance

C is the specific heat capacity of the substance

$\Delta T$ is the change in temperature of the substance

For the sample of copper in this problem, we have:

m = 25 g (mass)

C = 0.39 J/gºC (specific heat capacity of copper)

$\Delta T = 15^{\circ}C$ (change in temperature)

Substituting, we find:

$Q=(25)(0.39)(15)=146 J$

So, the closest answer is B) 150 J.
