What is the streak of a mineral used for

Physics
2 answers:
Savatey [412]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Streak of a mineral is used to identify a specific mineral.

Explanation:

Streak of a mineral is a color of a particular mineral in its powder form. Geologist carry out "Streak Test" to identify the mineral type by its color. Here's how:

For example: we have a mineral like Hematite which consists several different specimens in it and each specimen possess different colors like black, red, brown or silver. But all of these specimens gives a combined streak of reddish color which is a characteristic of Hematite Mineral.

Hope this helps :)

If you start with a substance as a solid, what will happen to the molecules as you add thermal energy (heat)?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

C. molecules speed up as more thermal energy is added

Explanation:

The molecules will simply speed up as more thermal energy is added to the solid.

Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is set in motion.

  • Heat causes kinetic energy build up in a body.
  • As the molecules of the solid gains heat, they will continue to increase in thermal energy.
  • They are forced to start vibrating about their fixed point.
  • Thereafter, when they have enough energy, they break free from the forces holding them.
  • Therefore, they move from a state of rest to one with a very high kinetic energy where the molecules moves rapidly.
  • This is why a solid will change to liquid and sometimes eventually gas

A ball of mass 0.120 kg is dropped from rest from a height of 1.25 m. It rebounds from the floor to reach a height of 0.820 m. W
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

1.0752 kgm/s

Explanation:

Considering when the drop was dropped from rest from a height,

mass of the ball, m = 0.120 kg

height, h = - 1.25 m

the initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

the acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s²

From equation of motion

                            V^{2} = U^{2} + 2gh

Substituting the values,

                             V^{2} = 0^{2} + 2(-9.8 m/s^{2})(-1.25 m)

                             V^{2} = 24.5 m/s

                             V = \sqrt{24.5} \ m/s

                             V = 4.95 \ m/s

                            V = ± 4.95 m/s

                            V = - 4.95 m/s

Since the ball is moving downward, the final velocity of the ball when it hits the floor is  V = - 4.95 m/s  

Considering when the ball rebounds from the floor,

assume the mass of the ball still remain, m = 0.120 kg

height, h = 0.820 m

the final velocity, v = 0 m/s  

the acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s²

From equation of motion

                            V^{2} = U^{2} + 2gh

Substituting the values,

                            0^{2} = U^{2} + 2(-9.8 m/s^{2})(0.820 m)

                            0 = U^{2} - 16.072 m/s

                            U^{2} = 16.072 m/s

                            U = \sqrt{16.072} \ m/s

                           U = ± 4.01 m/s

                          U = + 4.01 m/s

Since the ball is moving upward, the initial velocity of the ball from the bounce from the floor is  U = + 4.01 m/s                        

From Newton's second law of motion, applied force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum.

                            F = \frac{mv - mu}{t}

                          F.t = m(v - u)

       ⇒      Impulse = Change in momentum

To calculate the impulse, the moment before the ball hits the ground will be the initial momentum while the moment the ball rebounces will be the final velocity,                        

          ∴          F.t = 0.120  kg(4.01  m/s - (-4.95  m/s) )

                      F.t = 0.120  kg(4.01  m/s + 4.95  m/s) )

                      F.t = 0.120  kg × 8.96  m/s

                      Impulse  = 1.0752 kgm/s

The impulse given to the ball by the floor is 1.0752 kgm/s

A metal wire breaks when its tension reaches 100 newton. If the radius and length of the wire were both doubled then it would br
serg [7]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

Since Young's modulus for the metal, E = σ/ε where σ = stress = F/A where F = force on metal and A = cross-sectional area, and ε = strain = e/L where e = extension of metal = change in length and L = length of metal wire.

So,  E = σ/ε = FL/eA

Now, since at break extension = e.

So making e subject of the formula, we have

e = FL/EA = FL/Eπr² where r = radius of metal wire

Now, when the radius and length are doubled, we have our extension as e' = F'L'/Eπr'² where F' = new force on metal wire, L' = new length = 2L and r' = new radius = 2r

So, e' = F'(2L)/Eπ(2r)²

e' = 2F'L/4Eπr²

e' = F'L/2Eπr²

Since at breakage, both extensions are the same, e = e'

So,  FL/Eπr² = F'L/2Eπr²

F = F'/2

F' = 2F

Since F = 100 N,

F' = 2 × 100 N = 200 N

So, If the radius and length of the wire were both doubled then it would break when the tension reached 200 Newtons.

Long Jump: inital center of mass height of 1.08 m, final center of mass height of 0.42 m, projection velocity of 8.7 m/s, projec
sammy [17]

Answer:

1) The maximum jump height is reached at A. 0.337s

2) The maximum center of mass height off of the ground is B. 1.64m

3) The time of flight is C. 0.834s

4) The distance of jump is B. 7.49m

Explanation:

First of all we need to decompose velocity in its rectangular components, so

v_{xi}=8.7m/s(cos 22.3\°)=8.05m/s= constant\\v_{yi}=8.7m/s(sin 22.3\°)=3.3m/s

1) We use, v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt, as we clear it for t and using the fact that v_{fy}=0 at max height, we obtain t=\frac{v_{iy}}{g} =\frac{3.3m/s}{9,8m/s^{2}} =0.337s

2) We can use the formula y_{max}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2} for t=0.337s, so

y_{max}=1.08m+(3.3m/s)(0.337s)-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})(0.337)^{2}}{2}=1.64m

3) We can use the formula y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find total time of fligth, so 0.42=1.08+3.3t-\frac{(9.8)t^{2}}{2}\\0=-4.9t^{2}+3.3t+0.66, as it is a second-grade polynomial, we find that its positive root is t=0.834s

4) Finally, we use x=v_{x}t=8.05m/s(0.834s)=6.71m, as it has an additional displacement of 0.77m due the leg extension we obtain,

x=6.71m+0.77m=7.48m, aprox x=7.49m

True or false The momentum of a 100kg object traveling at 3 m/s is 300 N
melomori [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Momentum of an object can be defined as the product of its mass and velocity at which it is travelling. With that in mind, momentum = 3*100=300(kg⋅m/s).

One thing to note is the units mentioned. The SI unit of momentum is kg * m/s as it is the product of mass(kilograms) and velocity(meter per second) and not Newton.
