Answer:
D) The new metamorphic rock would have the approximate same mass as the igneous rock.
Explanation:A metamorphic rock is a type of rock formed under a high temperature of above 150-200 degrees and pressure of over 1000bar, this process of Subjecting certain rock types to very high temperature in order to lead to the formation of a new Rick known as metamorphic rock is called METAMORPHISM. example inclutes
Granulite,slate, marble etc.
Igneous rocks are rocks formed as a result of the solidification of molten magma.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that:
Area = 475 acres
The length of the channel (L) = 6870 feet
The average water shield slope (S) = 100 feet/mile
Since; 1 mile = 5280 feet
Burst duration D = 15 min
∴
100 feet/mile = 100/5280
The average water shield slope (S) = 5/264
Using hydrograph method:
The time of concentration
where;
L = 6870
S = 5/264
min
Since 60 min = 1 hour
32.34 min will be (32.34*1)/60
= 0.539 hour
Lag time
The time to peak i.e
Since D = 15 min is not equal to , then we hydrograph apart from duration lag time.
Then;
Now, we need to determine the peak discharge by using the formula:
where
484 = peak factor
Recall that A = 475 acres, to miles, we have:
A = 0.7422 mile²
∴
Answer:
The total amount of water on the planet that is present in the <em>atmosphere</em> at any given time is about 0.001% of the total water found on Earth. This atmospheric water is responsible for all storms.
If by in storage we mean in <em>groundwater</em> then the percentage would be 1.69.
Explanation:
The overwhelming majority of all water on our planet resides in the <em>oceans</em>. These hold about 96.5% of the total.
If we only consider freshwater (water with no salt) then the greatest storage areas are <em>ice caps</em>, <em>glaciers</em>, and <em>groundwater aquifers</em>.
Answer:
b. False
Explanation:
The trenches are not physical features that occur on places where there are subduction zones between the tectonic plates, but they do not appear on places where there are divergent plate boundaries. The trenches are simply very deep, narrow, ocean beds, that have very steep sides.
The divergent boundaries are the opposite boundaries from where the trenches occur. These boundaries occur between tectonic plates that move away from each other. The typical physical feature at this type of plate boundaries are the mid-ocean ridges (if it occurs in an ocean), or the rift valleys (if it occurs on land).
This type of boundary produces new crust on Earth, and they also can split a tectonic plate into two separate plates, or even give rise to a new continent.
