Answer:

b. location c. luster d. taste

Explanation:

  • The following physical and chemical properties for identifying the mineral are Color, Hardness, Luster, Taste, Odor, Etc. The properties help in identifying the place of origin the mineral has come from.  
  • In turn, location can be also used to identify a particular mineral or chemical origin. A mineral located in groundwater reserves has deposits of calcium and hence formed through the limestone rocks of the CaCo3 element.
  • Luster the reflectance properties of the rocks as some minerals don't have lust is called as "earthy," or "dull." And the color is an important property of the mineral and hence is a major tool in identifying the chemical and physical properties.
  • Other properties being Magnetism, Opaqueness and Specific Gravity.

What force is necessary to accelerates a 1250kg car at a rate of 40 m/s
zalisa [80]

Answer:

F = 50000 N

Explanation:

The acceleration is rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time.

Formula:

a = Δv/Δt

a = acceleration

Δv = change in velocity

Δt = change in time

Units:

The unit of acceleration is m.s⁻².

Acceleration can also be determine through following formula,

F = m × a

a = F/m

Given data:

Mass of car = 1250 Kg

Acceleration = 40 m/s².

Force = ?

Solution:

F = m × a

F = 1250 Kg ×  40 m/s²

Kg.m/s² = N

F = 50000 N
