Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

⠀⠀⠀⇒ Speed = 90 km/h

⠀⠀⠀⇒ Speed = 90 km/60 min [As 1 hr = 60 min]

⠀⠀⠀⇒ Speed = (90 × 1000) m/(60 × 60)sec

⠀⠀⠀⇒ Speed = 90000 m/3600 sec

⠀⠀⠀⇒ Speed = 900 m/36 sec

⠀⠀⠀⇒ Speed = 300 m/12 sec

⠀⠀⠀⇒ Speed = 100 m/4 sec

⠀⠀⠀⇒ Speed = 25 m/s

At the same moment, one rock is dropped and one is thrown downward with an initial velocity of 29m/s from the top of a building

Inessa [10]

Answer:

The thrown rock strike 2.42 seconds earlier.

Explanation:

This is an uniformly accelerated motion problem, so in order to find the arrival time we will use the following formula:

$x=vo*t+\frac{1}{2} a*t^2\\where\\x=distance\\vo=initial velocity\\a=acceleration$

So now we have an equation and unkown value.

for the thrown rock

$\frac{1}{2}(9.8)*t^2+29*t-300=0$

for the dropped rock

$\frac{1}{2}(9.8)*t^2+0*t-300=0$

solving both equation with the quadratic formula:

$\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2-4*a*c} }{2*a}$

we have:

the thrown rock arrives on t=5.4 sec

the dropped rock arrives on t=7.82 sec

so the thrown rock arrives 2.42 seconds earlier (7.82-5.4=2.42)

What happens to the rock structure during each of type of change?

EastWind [94]

Previous rocks melt and collide and to form igneous rocks.
Igneous rocks disintegrate due to weather disruptions and get carried away by water, where they form sedimentary rock strata by lithification.
Igneous and sedimentary change by heat and pressure to form metamorphic rocks.
Metamorphic rocks melt and become igneous rocks.
