Answer:

Clastic sedimentary rocks are made of pieces of rock or mineral grains that have been broken from preexisting rock. These particles and grains have become solid rock by the processes of compaction or cementation of sediments. ... When these crystals grow large enough to fill the spaces they harden and form a solid rock.

steve took a train 30 miles north to seattle then he took a different train 25 miles east draw a vector diagram showing steves t
Fed [463]

A = distance traveled by steve in north direction by train = 30 miles

B = distance traveled by steve in east direction by train = 25 miles

R = resultant displacement of the steve relative to starting position

using pythagorean theorem

R = √(A² + B²)

inserting the values

R = √(30² + 25²)

R = 39.05 miles


direction : tan⁻¹(B/A) = tan⁻¹(25/30) = 39.8 deg east of north

A car accelerates uniformly in a straight line
Alinara [238K]

Recall that

{v_f}^2={v_i}^2=2a\Delta x

The car starts from rest, so v_i=0, and we get

{v_f}^2=2\left(2.8\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(69\,\mathrm m)\implies v_f\approx19.66\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}
