Sandra takes a class field trip to a geology museum. She sees an interesting sample of igneous rock. She wonders if the material

in this rock sample could have come from a sedimentary rock formation at Earth’s surface millions of years ago. Is this possible? Can sedimentary rock change into igneous rock?

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

It is possible for sedimentary rocks to be converted to igneous rocks. Under conditions of high temperature and pressure, sedimentary rocks can be broken down into igneous rock by melting this rock type.

When the rock is broken down, it forms melt which when cooled and solidifies will form igneous rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from the breaking down of pre-existing rocks through the action of weathering, erosion and sediment transportation. Within a basin, the sediments are compacted and lithified.

When this is subjected to intense pressure and temperature, the rock hardens and might further break down to melt.

Which style of painting is the Peale family known for?
Misha Larkins [42]

The correct answer is option B, representational

All the painters in Peale family were involved in paintings which represent the day today life activities or were portraits or mimic some natural forms.  

Charles Willson Peale , the head of the Peale family was known for painting sixty portraits of the first American president, George Washington. He also painted portraits of portraits of notable people of the society such as  Benjamin Franklin,  Thomas Jefferson etc.  

Most of the paintings of peale family were based on the theme of family, art and science. Six of Peale’s son were known for their renaissance paintings. His oldest son Raphelle was known for still life paintings.  

Titian Ramsay Peale, Charles’ youngest son was a naturalist painter.

What is the speed of terminal velocity?
ivann1987 [24]
The so-called "terminal velocity" is the fastest that something can fall
through a fluid.  Even though there's a constant force pulling it through,
the friction or resistance of plowing through the surrounding substance
gets bigger as the speed grows, so there's some speed where the resistance
is equal to the pulling force, and then the falling object can't go any faster.

A few examples:
-- the terminal velocity of a sky-diver falling through air,
-- the terminal velocity of a pecan falling through honey,
-- the terminal velocity of a stone falling through water.

It's not possible to say that "the terminal velocity is ----- miles per hour".
If any of these things changes, then the terminal velocity changes too:

-- weight of the falling object
-- shape of the object
-- surface texture (smoothness) of the object
-- density of the surrounding fluid
-- viscosity of the surrounding fluid .

What force, in newtons, must you exert on the balloon with your hands to create a gauge pressure of 62.5 cm H2O, if you squeeze
yulyashka [42]

Answer:54.70 N

Explanation:

Given

Gauge Pressure of 62.5 cm of H_2O

i.e. h=62.5 cm =0.625 m

Effective area A=51 cm^2

initial Pressure= 1 atm=101.325 kPa

Gauge Pressure P=\rho gh

\rho =density\ of\ water =1000 kg/m^3

P_{gauge}=1000\times 9.8\times 0.625=5.937 kPa

Force creates a pressure of P_1 which will be equal to Gauge Pressure

P_1=\frac{F}{A}

P_1=P_{gauge}

\frac{F}{A}=5.937 kPa

F=5.937\times 51\times 10^{-4}\times 10^3

F=30.27 N

There is a species of bamboo that can grow 36 inches per day. If a plant grew at this rate and was measured at 40 inches initial
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

It will take the plant 4\frac{4}{9} days or 4.44 days to grow to a height of 200 inches tall.

Explanation:

From the question, the rate at which the species of the bamboo tree grows is 36 inches per day.

To determine how long it would take a plant 40 inches tall initially to grow at this rate (that is, 36 inches per day) to a height of 200 inches.

This means we will calculate the number of days it will take the plant to grow additional 160 inches ( 200 inches - 40 inches) at this rate.

Now,

If the plant grows 36 inches in 1 day

then it will grow 160 inches in x days

x = (160 inches × 1 day) / 36 inches

x = 160 / 36

x = 4\frac{4}{9} days or 4.44 days

Hence, it will take the plant 4\frac{4}{9} days or 4.44 days to grow to a height of 200 inches tall.

An attacker at the base of a castle wall 3.60 m high throws a rock straight up with speed 8.00 m/s from a height of 1.70 m above
ryzh [129]

Answer:

we can say here that | v² - u² | is the same for upward as for downward and change in the speed is different here so | v - u | same whenever rock travel up, down for same time and not same distances

Explanation:

given data

base = 3.60 m

speed u = 8 m/s

height = 1.70 m

to find out

check change in speed

solution

we know here formula for v  that is

v² = u² - 2gh      ............1        for upward speed

v² = u² + 2gh     ............2        for projected speed

so here put all value and find v with h = 3.60 - 1.70 = 1.9 m

v² = 8² - 2(9.8) 1.9  = 26.76

v² = 8² + 2(9.8) 1.9   = 101.24

v = 5.173  m/s    ..............3

v = 10.061 m/s   ...................4

so change in speed form 3 and 4 equation

change in speed = v - u = 8 - 5.173  = 2.827 m/s     .................5

change in speed = v - u = 10.061 - 8 = 2.061 m/s     ..................6

so now we can say here that | v² - u² | is the same for upward as for downward and change in the speed is different here so | v - u | same whenever rock travel up, down for same time and not same distances
