A silica-rich igneous rock that has large crystals and makes up much of the continental crust is called granite. These rocks are usually pink, gray or white in color depending on the minerals found on the rock. Generally, granite would have a range of 20% to 60% by volume of quartz and a minimum of 35% feldspar. This rock is a result from volcanic arcs and from the collision of continental masses. Due to its abundance, it has been used in a number of applications. It is used as an aggregate and filler in roading and construction industries. It is also cut and polished to be used in foyers, building facings, bench counters and tops.

A train accelerates at -1.5 m/s2 for 10 seconds. If the train had an initial

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

17 m/s

Explanation:

Using formula a = (v-u) /t

acceleration a = -1.5 m/s2

final velocity v = unknown

initial velocity u = 32 m/s

time t = 10s

-1.5 = (v-32)/10

-15 = v - 32

-15 + 32 = v

v = 17 m/s

An electron moving with a velocity v⃗ = 5.0 × 107 m/s i^ enters a region of space where perpendicular electric and a magnetic fi

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Magnetic field, $B=2\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of electron, $v=5\times 10^7\ m/s$

It enters a region of space where perpendicular electric and a magnetic fields are present.

Magnitude of electric field, $E=10^4\ V/m$

We need to find the magnetic field will allow the electron to go through the region without being deflected.

Magnetic force on the electron, $F_m=qvB\ sin\theta$ .......(1)

Electric force on the electron, F = q E........(2)

From equation (1) and (2) we get:

$qvB\ sin\theta=qE$

$B=\dfrac{E}{v}$

$B=\dfrac{10^4\ V/m}{5\times 10^7\ m/s}$

B = 0.0002 T

or

$B=2\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A Ping-Pong ball has a mass of 2.3 g and a terminal speed of 9.4 m/s. The drag force is of the form bv^2 What is the value of b?

julia-pushkina [17]

Drag Force = bv^2 = ma; a = g = 9.81 m/s^2

b = mg/v^2 = (0.0023×9.81)/(9.4^2)

b = 0.000255
