Answer:

The rock that has a high fast moving streams is Conglomerate. So the correct answer is D. Conglomerate.

<em>Conglomerates are special sedimentary rocks that develop in a mixture of finer sand or silt when rocks and pebbles are cemented together.</em>

<em>High-energy streams can carry and deposit larger clasts of gravel or pebble size. Conglomerates also indicate that in the middle course of the stream the deposition of the rocks occurred when the energy is relatively high. </em>

Explanation:

The formation of conglomerates requires homogenization with larger rocks and pebbles of sand, mud, clay or silt. In fast-moving streams, ocean waves, landslides, or glaciers, this most commonly happens.

This mixture is compressed into solid rock over millions of years. Conglomerates can contain virtually any rock or mineral size or type mixed in almost any base of clay, mud, sand or silt.

raketka [301]

Answer:

Explanation: The United States of America and Canada have one of the worlds oldest environmental partnerships. The various ways they're partnering to better the environment include:

1. The U.S. - Canada Air Quality Agreement.

This Agreement was signed in 1991 with the aim of working towards the reduction of air emissions which cause cause acid rain. The Agreement was later expanded in the year 2000 with the goal of reducing transboundary smog emissions under the Ozone Annex.

2. The Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement.

Adam, who is 5'6" tall, notices his shadow on the sidewalk. If the angle of elevation from the tip of the shadow to the sun is 6
german
<h2>Answer:</h2>

This problem can be solved using trigonomtry, assuming that the figure formed by Adam's shadow and Adam himself is a Right Triangle (as shown in the figure attached).


According to this,  the distance from the tip of the shadow to the top of Adam's head is the hypotenuse H of the triangle, and we already know Adam's height and the angle of elevation. So, the trigonometric function that best works in this case is sine:


sen(angle)=\frac{Oppositeleg}{hypotenuse}  


Where the opposite leg is the side of the triangle that is opposite to the 60\º angle.

In this especific case:


sen(60\º)=\frac{5.6feet}{H}     (1)


In order to know the value of the hypotenuse we have to find  H from equation (1):

H=\frac{5.6feet}{sen(60\º)}



H=6.4663 feet



Rounding:

H=6.46 feet>>>>>This is the distance from the tip of the shadow to the top of Adam's head
