How can an igneous rock turn into a sedimentary rock?

Chemistry

Answer:

<h2>On the surface, weathering and erosion break down the igneous rock into pebbles, sand, and mud, creating sediment, which accumulates in basins on the Earth's surface. As successive layers of sediment settle on top of one another, the sediment near the bottom is compressed, hardens, and forms sedimentary rock.</h2>

A Gas OCCUPIES 525ML AT A PRESSURE OF 85.0 kPa WHAT WOULD THE VOLUME OF THE GAS BE AT THE PRESSURE OF 65.0 kPa

german

Boyle's law of ideal gas: This law states that the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at a constant temperature. Acc to this law we can write the relation of pressure and volume as:

$PV=Constant$

That means:

$P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}$

From that equation we can calculate Volume of gas at a certain pressure:

P₁=Initial pressure

V₁=Initial volume

P₂=Final pressure

V₂= Final volume

Here P₁, initial pressure is given as 85.0 kPa

V₁, initial volume is given as 525 mL

P₂, final pressure is 65.0 kPa

$P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}$

so,

V_{2}=85\times 525\div 65

=686 mL

Volume of gas will be 686 mL.

The atoms of the isotopes of a particular element vary in the number of

satela [25.4K]

Neutrons.
The nucleus of an atom contains two kinds of particles, protons and neutrons. The number of protons determines what element the atom is. Atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons are isotopes of the same element. For example, if two atoms both have 1 proton in their nuclei, but one atom has 0 neutrons and the other has 1 neutron, both atoms are hydrogen but they are different isotopes of hydrogen.

A sound wave has a wavelength of 0.450

Karolina [17]

Answer:

The wave's frequency is 733 hertz.

Explanation:

The wavelength (λ) is the minimum distance between two points of the wave that are in the same state of vibration.

Frequency (f) is the number of vibrations that occur in a unit of time.

The speed of propagation (v) is the speed with which the wave propagates in the middle. Relate wavelength (λ) and frequency (f) inversely proportionally using the following equation: v = f * λ.

In this case you know that:

Wavelength of the sound wave (λ) = 0.450 meters
Speed of the sound wave (v)= 330 meters per second= 330 $\frac{meters}{second}$

Replacing you get:

$330 \frac{meters}{second} = f* 0.450 meters$

Then:

$f=\frac{330 \frac{meters}{second} }{0.450 meters}$

f=733.33 hertz≅733 hertz

Finally, the wave's frequency is 733 hertz.
