What is a mafic rock

Physics
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago
5 0
Mafic is an adjective describing a silicate mineral or igneous rock that is rich in magnesium and iron, and is thus a portmanteau of magnesium and ferric. Most mafic minerals are dark in color, and common rock-forming mafic minerals include olivine, pyroxene, amphibole, and biotite

Why do engineers place tolerances on dimensions?
ser-zykov [4K]
<span>Engineers place tolerance on dimensions since the when engineers use tolerance, buildings and constructions projects like tall towers, roads, and bridges become more reliable, strong and stable. In harnessing tolerance, the end product that is made by the engineers, specifically buildings like schools, hospitals, malls and skyways are sturdy and dependable.</span>

In a game of pool the cue ball is rolling at 2.00 m / s in a direction 30.0° north of east when it collides with the eight ball
victus00 [196]

Answer:

v_{f1}=1.758m/s

v_{f1}=1.758m/s

Explanation:

The collision is elastic so we can use the conservation of momentum

P_i=P_f

m_1*v_1+m_2*v_2=m_1*v_{f1}+m_2*v_{f2}

Describe the motion in axis x'

170g*2.0m/s*cos(30)+156g*0m/s=170*cos(10)*v_{f1}+156g*0m/s

294.44 g*m/s=167.41g*v_{f1}

v_{f1}=1.758m/s

Describe the motion in axis y'

170g*2.0m/s*sin(30)=170g*1.75m/s*sin(10)+156*v_{f2}

v_{f2}=1.55m/s

9. A statue is to be scaled down isomorphically (It will have its size changed without changing its shape). It starts with an in
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

   m = 1.45 kg

Explanation:

For this exercise we look for size reduction in height

              Reduction = y / y₀

              Reduction = 2.15 / 6.75

              Reduction = 0.3185

As the statue should not be deformed, all reduction has the same factor.

Let's use the concept of density

       ρ = m / V

Initial statue

         ρ = m₀ / V₀

         

It is reduced

         V = x y z

         V = 0.3185 x₀ 0.3185 y₀ 0.3185 z₀

         V = 0.3185³ V₀

       

Density is

         ρ = m / V

         ρ = m / 0.3185³ V₀

As the density remains constant we can match them

         m₀ / Vo = m / 0.3185³ V₀

         m = 0.3185³ m₀

Let's calculate

        m = 0.3185³ 45

        m = 0.03231   45

        m = 1.45 kg
