Describe what would happen if you rubbed a mineral with a Mohs hardness value of 7 against a mineral with a value of 5?

The mineral with Mohs hardness would be scratched because the mineral with Mohs 7 hardness is stronger than the Mohs 5 mineral. Eventually, that mineral would turn into dust if you kept rubbing it.

Which part of a wind-powered system ultimately produces the electricity? A. nacelle B. blade C. turbine D. generator

djverab [1.8K]

<span>The correct answer is: (D) Generator

Explanation:
In wind-powered systems, the wind energy turns the blades around the rotor of a wind turbine. That rotor is connected to a generator that generates electricity. In other words, the kinectic energy of the wind is converted into electrical energy by using the generator in the wind-powered systems.</span>

The origin of an x axis is placed at the center of a nonconducting solid sphere of radius R that carries a charge +qsphere distr

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

$q=49Q/64$

and

$x =16R/15$

Explanation:

See attached figure.

$E_{Q}=$ E due to sphere

$E_{q}=$ E due to particule

$E_{total}=E_{Q}-E_{q}=0$ (1)

according to the law of gauss and superposition Law:

$E_{Q}=E_{1}+E_{2}=E_{2}$ ; electric field due to the small sphere with r1=R/4

$E_{Q}=kq_{2}/(r_{1}^{2})=$

$q_{2}=density*4/3*pi*r_{1}^{3}=Q/(4/3*pi*R^{3})*4/3*pi*r_{1}^{3}=Q*r_{1}^{3}/R^{3}$

then: $E_{Q}=kq_{2}/(r_{1}^{2})=k*Q*r_{1}^{3}/(R^{3}*r_{1}^{2}) = kQ/(4*R^{2})$ (2)

on the other hand, for the particule:

$E_{q}=kq/(r_{p}^{2})$

$r_{p}=2R-R/4=7R/4$ ⇒ $E_{q}=16kq/(49R^{2})$ (3)

We replace (2) y (3) in (1):

$E_{total}=E_{Q}-E_{q}=0=kQ/(4*R^{2}) - 49kq/(16R^{2})$

$q=49Q/64$

--------------------

if R<x<2R AND $E_{total}=E_{Q}-E_{q}=0$

$E_{total}=E_{Q}-E_{q}=0=kQ/(x^{2}) - kq/(2R-x^{2})$

remember that $q=49Q/64$

then:

$Q(2R-x^{2})=49/64*x^{2}$

solving:

$x_{1} =16R/15$

$x_{2} =16R$

but: R<x<2R

so : $x =16R/15$

What is the independent, and dependent variable? what should songs bobs conclusion be?

Fudgin [204]

The dependent variable is the slime on Gary's shell, because it's depending on other factors (independent factors).

The circuits, P and Q, show two different ammeter-voltmeter methods of measuring resistance. Suppose the ammeter has a resistanc

qaws [65]

Answer:

Uncorrected values for

For circuit P

R = 2.4 ohm

For circuit Q

R = 2.4 ohm

Corrected values

for circuit P

R = 12 OHM

For circuit Q

R = 2.3 ohm

Explanation:

Given data:

Ammeter resistance 0.10 ohms

Resister resistance 3.0 ohms

Voltmeter read 6 volts

ammeter reads 2.5 amp

UNCORRECTED VALUES FOR

1) circuit P

we know that IR =V

$R = \frac{6}{2.5} - 2.4 ohm$

2) circuit Q

R = 2.4 ohm as no potential drop across ammeter

CORRECTED VALUES FOR

1) circuit p

IR = V

$\frac{3R}{R+3} \times 2.5 = 6$

R= 12 ohm

2) circuit Q

$I\times (R+0.1) =V$

$R+0.1 =\frac{6}{2.5}$

R = 2.3 ohm
