What is a sedimentary, igneous, and a metamorphic rock?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Igneous rocks form when molten rock (magma or lava) cools and solidifies. Sedimentary rocks originate when particles settle out of water or air, or by precipitation of minerals from water. They accumulate in layers. Metamorphic rocks result when existing rocks are changed by heat, pressure, or reactive fluids, such as hot, mineral-laden water.

A wave has a wavelength of 0.5 meters and a frequency of
120hz.how long would it take for this wave to travel 300 meters.

Neat problem !

If we want to know how long it would take to cover some distance,
we'll need to know its speed.

            Wave speed = (wavelength) x (frequency)

                                   = (0.5 m) x (120 / sec)

                                   =    60 m/s .

Then ...

                     Time = (distance) / (speed)

                               = (300 m) / (60 m/s)

                               =    5 seconds . 

What is the difference between applied force and normal force

Answers

If a person is pushing a desk across the room, then there is an applied force acting upon the object. The applied force is the force exerted on the desk by the person. The normal force is the support force exerted upon an object that is in contact with another stable object.

Boyle’s Law: When____ is held constant, the pressure and volume of a gas are___ proportional.It didnt give me a word bank
No link answers please

Answers

Boyle’s Law states that, when temperature is held constant, the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional.

What is meant by gas laws ?

Gas laws are defined as the laws that govern the properties of gases by determining the relationships between the pressure, volume and temperature of the gases.

Here,

Boyle's law is the gas law that governs the relationship between the pressure and volume of gases.

Boyle's law states that, for an ideal gas at a unit mass, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas, at constant temperature.

P \alpha 1/V

PV = a constant

When the temperature of the gas is held constant.

Hence,

Boyle’s Law states that, when temperature is held constant, the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional.

Why is saturn still giving off extra energy?Please help!!!!!!!!

Homework due tomorrow!

Last question!!!!!

Answers

There is not a "for sure" answer yet, but scientist thinks that it might be due to Saturn's cloud cover, if the cloud cover fluctuated, then Saturn would scatter infrared light differently, giving off more energy than it needs to. 

Mass and weight are similar but not the same thing. In which of the following examples would the objects weight change, but made stay the same? An astronaut travels from the earth to the moon

A child grows taller

An overweight person goes on a diet

A snowball rolls downhill and picks up snow making it grow

Answers

we know that , weight of an object is given as

W = mg

where W = weight  , m = mass of the object  and g = acceleration due to gravity at that place.


An astronaut travels from the earth to the moon :

as the astronaut travels from the earth to the moon, the mass of astronaut stays the same but the weight change as acceleration due to gravity change since acceleration due to gravity on moon is only 1/6 times that on earth.


A child grows taller :

as child grows taller , he gains body mass . hence both mass and weight change.


An overweight person goes on a diet :

as an overweight person goes on diet , he loose body mass . hence both mass and weight change.


A snowball rolls downhill and picks up snow making it grow :

As snowball rolls downhill , it gains snow, hence its mass and in turn the weight change.

OK THIS WILL WORTH 25 POINTS IF BEST: WHAT IS THE ONLY NATURAL SUBSTANCE FOUND ON EARTH THAT CAN BE 3 STATES OF MATTER?

Answers

Every natural substance CAN exist as solid, liquid, or gas, if you make the temperature and pressure right. The only one that exists in all three states all the time, all around us, in the same range of temperature and pressure found naturally on Earth and in which we live comfortably, is water.
