Answer:

water temperature change = 0.696° F

Explanation:

In this question we will consider the steady flow energy equation at the Top and at the bottom of the water falls and also assume the flow is Adiabatic

we will apply the relation below to Estimate the water temperature change caused by the drop

C_{p} ( t ) = g ( z_{in} - z_{out}  )  ------ ( 1 )

where : Cp = 25100 ft. Ibf / slug °F

 Δ z = 543 ft

  g = 32.2 ft/s^2

Input the given values into equation 1 and make t subject of the relation

t ( temp change ) = \frac{32.2 * 543}{25100}  =  0.696° F

What is the relationship between silica and density in igneous rocks?
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The color is considered dark if the rock appears as a dark gray to black (pyroxenes, the amphibole Hornblende, the mostly Ca-plagioclases near Anorthite, and Biotite mica. Density is a property that is proportional to the composition of the rock. The higher the amount of silica (felsic) the less dense the rock will be.

Explanation:

Hope this helped :)

What is true of two solar eclipses separated by one saros cycle?
drek231 [11]
Answer: two solar eclipses separated by one Saros cycle will have the same geometric characteristics (they will both be total, or partial or annular).

A Saros is a period of time of about 18 years 11 days and 8 hours and represents the time needed for the system composed by Moon, Earth, and Sun to return to its initial position. 

Indeed, this is due to a natural harmony of the Moon’s motion: it takes 29.53 days to complete one orbit around Earth (Synodic Month), it takes 27.21 days to pass from the same node of its orbit (Draconic Month) and it takes 27.55 days to go from perigee to perigee (Anomalistic Month); the composition of these three motions gives one Saros of around 6585.3 days, composed by 223 Synodic Months, 239 Anomalistic Months and 242 Draconic Months (with a precision of few hours).

It has been observed that after one Saros cycle Moon, Earth and Sun are in the same initial position, therefore an eclipse occurring on day 1 of two consecutive Soros cycles would have the same geometric characteristics, which means that one Saros can be considered the periodicity of solar and lunar eclipses.

Due to the fact that a Saros is not composed by a whole number of days (we have a remainder of 8 hours), the two eclipses won’t be visible from the same location on Earth due to the rotation around its axis. It takes about 3 Soros for this to happen.
