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.

Part a consider a bird that flies at an average speed of 10.7 m/s and releases energy from its body fat reserves at an average r

Alex787 [66]

<span>436 km The conversion factor between kilocalorie/hour and watts is 1.163 (1 kcal/hr = 1.163 watt). So let's convert the energy consumption of the bird from watts to kcal/hr 3.7 w / 1.163 w hr/kcal = 3.18 kcal /hr 1 gram of fat has 9 kcal, so the total number of kcals consumed will be 4 * 9 = 36. So the bird can fly for 36/3.18 = 11.32 hours The distance traveled will be 11.32 h * 3600 s/h * 10.7 m/s / 1000 m/km = 436 km</span>

Use Hooke's Law, which states that the distance a spring stretches (or compresses) from its natural, or equilibrium, length vari

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

706.68 N

Explanation:

By Hooke's law,

$F = ke$

$k=\dfrac{F}{e}$

Using the values in the question,

$k=\dfrac{265\text{ N}}{0.15 \text{ m}}=1766.7\text{ N/m}$

When e = 0.4 m,

$F = 1766.7\text{ N/m}\times0.4\text{ m}=706.68\text{ N}$

You are watching a magic show. For one trick the magician rolls a ball down a hill. Suddenly the ball stops moving down the hill

poizon [28]

The forces (what causes the ball to accelerate) are gravity, friction, and the normal force. In this case, gravity is a downward force caused by the gigantic mass of the Earth and the mass of the ball. Keep in mind that a force is acceleration. Acceleration is a change in velocity. The ball speeds up. Than it stops speeding up at a certain point where the frictional force (along with air friction) equals the parallel component of gravity.

Newton's Second Law States- The greater mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object.
