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.

In which scenario does radiation occur? warming soup on a stove drying towels at the beach cooking eggs in boiling water warming
shepuryov [24]

Answer: drying towels at the beach.

Explanation:

Radiation simply has to do with the energy that is gotten from a particular source and then goes through some materials. It simply means the way energy is being transmitted as waves or heat through a certain medium.

From the options given, the scenario whereby a radiation takes place is when drying towels on the beach.

  <span>I'll tell you how to do it but you must crunch the numbers. 

Use Kepler's 3rd Law 

T^2 = k R^3 

where k = 4(pi)^2/ GM 
G =gravitational constant = 6.67300 × 10-11 m3 kg-1 s-2 
M = mass of this new planet 
pi = 3.14159265 
T =3.09 days = 266976 seconds 
R = (579,000,000km)/9 = 64333333.3 km 

a) 
Solve Kepler's 3rd Law for M. Your answer will be in kg 


b) 
mass of the sun = 1.98892 × 10^30 kilograms 
Form the ratio 
M(planet)/M(sun) </span>

A radio-controlled car increases its kinetic energy from 4 j to 12 j over a distance of 2 m. what was the average net force on t
just olya [345]
The answer to this is easy once you look at the units for Joules. 1 Joule = 1 N.m (Newton.meter). The 'Newton' is the units of force that we are trying to find, and we know the meters is 2, from the question. So you have an 8Joule or 8N.m energy difference over 2 meters.

well if we know the meters, then the real question is written as:
8N.m = ?N x 2m
so just solve for N;
N = 8N.m / 2m = 4
So F = 4N

You measure the velocity of a drag racer that accelerates with constant acceleration. You want to plot the data and determine th
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

a) Linear equation

Explanation:

Definition of acceleration

a=\frac{dv}{dt}\\

if a=constant and we integrate the last equation

v(t)=v_{o}+a*t

So the relation between the time and the velocity is linear. If we plot the velocity in function of time, the plot is a line, and the acceleration is the slope of this line.
