Geography
1 answer:
LiRa [457]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:Farmlands and forests are impacted when natural gas is extracted from the Marcellus Shale. The transportation of heavy equipment impacts municipal roadways. The horizontal drilling techniques use less land surface than would be needed for vertical drilling.

hope it helps dont trip ;)

Classify the following everyday situations as illustrating: confining pressure, compressional stress, tensional stress, or shear
viktelen [127]

Answer is:

a) watermelon being run over by a steamroller is a shear stress.

b) a person diving into the deep end of a swimming pool is a confining pressure.

C) playing a game of tug- of-war is a tensional stress.

d) Kneading bread dough is a compressional stress

e) slipping on banana peel is shear stress.

The explanation:

a) when  the shear stress is that force which affect on the body by slippage on a plane of the body , and here, the ground is the plane and the watermelon is pushed by slippage on the ground by steamroller .

b) when the confining pressure is the pressure which caused by the effect of the weight overburden the body, and here the water in the pool is the weight that is overburden the body of the diving person which cause the confining pressure.

c) when the tensional stress is the force which is resulted from the pull body a part which perpendicular to the surface of the body, and here, playing a game of tug-of-war is represent a force of pull the rope apart so it is a tensional stress.

d) when the compressional stress is like squeezing surface of a body when the force is perpendicular to the body surface. and here Kneading bread dough is represent squeezing the bread dough  so, it  represent a compressional stress.

e) when  the shear stress is that force which affect on the body by slippage on a plane of the body , and here, the slipping on a banana peel is a shear stress as the slipping force on the banana represents the shear stress .

Describe how the granite of a mountain could change first into sandstone and then into quartzite. 8. describe how a collision be
Alexus [3.1K]
Granite is an intrusive igneous rocks made up of different minerals. Granite is made of crystals of biotite, feldspar (orthoclase and plagioclase) and quartz. As weathering acts on the rock it is broken down. Quartz is the most resistant of all the minerals that make up granite and so it will be left after thousands of years of exposure to the processes of weathering and erosion. The main component of sandstone is quartz and it is formed when the weathered sediments leftover from the weathering of the granite rock gets deposited and compacted by the process of sedimentation.
Quartzite is a metamorphic rock formed from sandstone. Sandstone can change into quartzite if it is exposed to extreme heat and pressure inside the crust.
Continental collision occurs when two continental plates move towards each other, each plate being dragged along by convection currents in the mantle. The extreme pressure and heat along these collision zones can cause metamorphism. Granite rocks at these zones can become foliated and change into gneiss.
The rock cycle shows possible paths and processes which crust material (rock)can be subjected to. The three main types of rocks represented on the the cycle are igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. Igneous rocks are formed when magma or lava cools and hardens. Sedimentary rocks are formed when deposited sediments gets buried, compacted and cemented into hard rock. Metamorphic rocks are formed when preexisting rocks get subjected to extreme temperatures and pressure in the crust.

Find the coordinates of the centroid of the triangle with the given vertices (5, 5), T(11,−3), U(−1, 1)
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Centroid = (5, 1)

Explanation:

Given:

S(5, 5), T(11,−3), U(−1, 1)

Required:

Coordinates of the centroid of the triangle

SOLUTION:

Formula for centroid for coordinates to find the centroid of a triangle = (\frac{x_1 + x_2 + x_3}{3}, \frac{y_1 + y_2 + y_3}{3})

Where,

(5, 5) = (x_1, y_1)

(11,−3) = (x_2, y_2)

(-1, 1) = (x_3, y_3)

Plug in the values into the formula:

(\frac{5 + 11 + (-1)}{3}, \frac{5 + (-3) + 1}{3})

(\frac{15}{3}, \frac{3}{3})

Centroid = (5, 1)

Religion has always played a key role in art expression. How do you think it has changed from primitive times through the Renais
sukhopar [10]
Well, for one, religion has changed, as well as the practice of those religions. Christianity and Islam, the world's largest religions, did not exist/rise to prevalence until just prior to the Middle Ages. The changing nature and expression of religion would certainly cause differences in art expression. Certain religions were also oppressed through the eras you've mentioned, and oppression and fear are powerful emotions that would also influence art. There are a million different factors that go into this, but I hoped this helped a little.
