Answer:

Silica occurs in both amorphous as well as crystalline forms.

Amorphous silica are those in which the silica atoms are not arranged in a defined repeating pattern. This lacks the proper arrangement and tightening of crystals or atoms.

Whereas, crystalline quartz are those in which the silica atoms are arranged in a repeating pattern, forming a definite structure. Here the crystals are tightly arranged.

Due to the differences between their crystal arrangement and structure, the density of crystalline quartz is higher than the density of amorphous silica.

Una patinadora de 50 kg parte del reposo y después de recorrer 3k alcanza una velocidad de 15 m/s. ¿Qué fuerza neta experimenta
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

F_{net} = 1.875\,N

Explanation:

Asúmase que la patinadora experimenta una aceleración constante. La fuerza neta experimentada por la patinadora:

F_{net} = (50\,kg)\cdot \left[\frac{\left(15\,\frac{m}{s}\right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{m}{s}\right)^{2} }{2\cdot (3000\,m)} \right]

F_{net} = 1.875\,N

<em>Position is the location of the object (whether it's a person, a ball, or a particle) at a given moment in time.</em>

<em>Displacement is the difference in the object's position from one time to another.</em>

<em>Distance is the total amount the object has traveled in a certain period of time.</em>

Can a vector be shorter than one of its components
Sauron [17]
It can never be shorter than a component - magnitude of avector is the square root of the sum of the components squared, and a square function never produces a negative number. However, it can be the same size as its component, if that component is the only one
