The most common group of silicates is quartz. Silicate minerals is the most abundant mineral found in the crust. About 90% of the crust contains these minerals. Silicate minerals includes quartz, mica, feldspar, pyroxene, amphobole and olivine. About 12% of these silicates is quartz.

Answer:

Feldspar

Explanation:

Feldspar make up 50% of the Earth's crust, this type of silicate is formed from magma found in intrusive and extrusive rocks.

Silicate is found in the Earth's crust, it is made up of oxygen and silicon constructed in a tetrahedral shape.

Which term means the distance between two bridge supports?
Ad libitum [116K]

The best answer is b - span.

A span is the distance between two bridge supports The supports may be towers, columns, or even the wall of a canyon.

There are many kinds of bridges  but they all fall into three types namely beam, arch and suspension. The major difference between these three kinds of bridges is the distance that each can cross in  a single span.

For example, a modern beam bridge is likely to span a distance of 200 feet, a modern arch can span 800 or 1000feet,  and a modern suspension bridge can span up to 7000ft.

A piano wire has a tension of 650 N and a mass per unit length of 0.060 g/cm. What is the speed of waves on this wire
Trava [24]

Answer:

The speed of waves on this wire is 329.14 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

tension of the wire, T = 650 N

mass per unit length, μ = 0.06 g /cm  = 0.006 kg/m

(convert the unit of mass per length in g/cm to kg/m by dividing by 10 = 0.06 / 10 = 0.006 kg/m)

The speed of waves on this wire is given as;

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{650}{0.006} }\\\\v = 329.14 \ m/s

Therefore, the speed of waves on this wire is 329.14 m/s

A parallel-plate capacitor with plates of area 600 cm^2 is charged to a potential difference V and is then disconnected from the
Julli [10]

Answer:

<h2>a) Q = 0.759µC</h2><h2>b) E = 39.5µJ</h2>

Explanation:

a) The charge Q on the positive charge capacitor can be gotten using the formula Q = CV

C = capacitance of the capacitor (in Farads )

V = voltage (in volts) = 100V

C = ∈A/d

∈ = permittivity of free space = 8.85 × 10^-12 F/m

A = cross sectional area = 600 cm²

d= distance between the plates = 0.7cm

C = 8.85 × 10^-12 * 600/0.7

C = 7.59*10^-9Farads

Q = 7.59*10^-9 * 100

Q = 7.59*10^-7Coulombs

Q = 0.759*10^-6C

Q = 0.759µC

b) Energy stored in a capacitor is expressed as E = 1/2CV²

E = 1/2 * 7.59*10^-9 * 100²

E = 0.0000395Joules

E = 39.5*10^-6Joules

E = 39.5µJ
