Answer:

melting of rock deep underground.

Explanation:

The melting of rocks deep underground does not produce sedimentary rocks. Most igneous rocks are produced by this process.

When molten rocks underground called magma is solidified in the subsurface, it results into the formation of igneous bodies.

Sedimentary rocks forms by the accumulation of sediments.
Inside the basin where the sediments are deposited, they are compacted, cemented and lithified.
Chemical and physical weathering of rocks produces sediments.

A bolt of lightning discharges 9.7 C in 8.9 x 10^-5 s. What is the average current during the discharge?

Anastaziya [24]

Answer: $1.089\times 10^5\ A$

Explanation:

Given

Charge discharged $Q=9.7\C$

time taken $t=8.9\times 10^{-5}\ s$

Current is given as rate of change of discharge i.e.

$\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{Q}{t}\\\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{9.7}{8.9\times 10^{-5}}\\\\\Rightarrow I=1.089\times 10^5\ A$

Therefore, the average current is $1.089\times 10^5\ A$

The Great Sandini is a 60 kg circus performer who is shotfrom a cannon (actually a spring gun). You don't find many men ofhis ca

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

V=15.3 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to use the energy conservation theorem:

$U_e+K_i+U_{gi}+W_{friction}=K_f+U_{gf}$

the elastic potencial energy is given by:

$U_e=\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2\\U_e=\frac{1}{2}*1100N/m*(4m)^2\\U_e=8800J$

The work is defined as:

$W_{friction}=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_{friction}=40N*2.5m*cos(180)\\W_{friction}=-100J$

this work is negative because is opposite to the movement.

The gravitational potencial energy at 2.5 m aboves is given by:

$U_{gf}=m*g*h\\U_{gf}=60kg*9.8*2.5\\U_{gf}=1470J$

the gravitational potential energy at the ground and the kinetic energy at the begining are 0.

$8800J+0+0+-100J=\frac{1}{2}*62kg*v^2+1470J\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(8800J-100J-1470J)}{62kg}}\\v=15.3m/s$

Why do scientists believe that dark matter exists even though it cannot be seen?

poizon [28]

Because although they cannot see it, they can see it's influence on objects that can be seen, and it's effects.
