Answer:

melting completely, then cooling

Explanation:

If the newly formed metamorphic rock continues to heat, it can eventually melt and become molten (magma). When the molten rock cools it forms an igneous rock. Metamorphic rocks can form from either sedimentary or igneous rocks.

Answer:

4.993 ×10⁻¹¹ J

Explanation:

The nuclear binding energy is the energy equivalent to the mass defect.

The mass defect is the difference between the mass of a nucleus and the sum of the masses of its nucleons.

Calculate the mass defect

16 p = 16 × 1.007 28 u = 16.116 48 u

16 n = 16 × 1.008 67 u = 16.138 72 u

Total mass of nucleons = 32.255 20 u

- Mass of S-32 = 31.972 070 u

Mass defect = 0.283 13 u

Convert the unified atomic mass units to kilograms.

Mass defect

$= \text{0.283 13 u} \times \frac{ \text{1.66 06} \times 10^{-27} \text{ kg}}{\text{1 u}}$

$= 4.700 \times 10^{-28} \text{ kg}$

Use Einstein’s equation to convert the mass defect into energy

$E = mc^{2}$

$E = 4.7000 \times 10^{-28} \text{ kg} \times (2.998 \times 10^{8} \text{ m}\cdot\text{s}^{-1})^{2} = 4.224 \times 10^{-11} \text{ J}$

The plunger on a bicycle pump with a 400 mL volume cylinder is

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The answer to your question is V2 = 66.7 ml

Explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = V1 = 400 ml

Pressure 1 = P1 = 1 atm

Volume 2 = V2 = ?

Pressure 2 = P2 = 6 atm

Process

1.- To solve this problem use Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

-solve for V2

V2 = P1V1 / P2

-Substitution

V2 = (1)(400) / 6

-Simplification

V2 = 400 / 6

-Result

V2 = 66.7 ml
