Answer:

Streak shows the true color of the mineral. Non-metallic particles tend to reflect most of the light so they appear lighter in color or almost white. Because streak is a more accurate illustration of the mineral's color, streak is a more reliable property of minerals than color for identification.

An object of mass m is traveling on a horizontal surface. There is a coefficient of kinetic friction  between the object and th

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

8m * (μg/v)^2

Explanation:

k, the spring constant = ?

(k in terms of μ, m, g, and v.)

Frictional force = μmg

Note: lost KE is converted to work done against the friction + PE of the spring

1/2mv2 = μmgx + 1/2kx^2....equation i

Cancel the 1/2 on both sides

mv^2 = μmgx + kx^2

Lets recall that:

Due to frictional effect, further enegy will be lost when the spring recoils backward

Therefore

1/2kx^2 = μmgx..... equation ii

Let's substitute 1/2kx^2 in equation I for ii

So we can say that:

1/2mv^2 = (μmgx)+ μmgx

1/2mv^2 = 2 (μmgx)

1/4mv^2 = μmgx

Cancel out m on both sides

1/4v^2 = μgx

Make x subject of the formula

x = (1/4v^2) / (μg)...... equation iii

substitute x to equation ii

But first make k in equation ii subject of the formula

1/2kx^2 = μmgx

k = 2μmg/x

Now substitute x

k = 2μmg / ((1/4v^2) / (μg))

k = 2μmg * ((μg) / (1/4v^2))

k = 8m * (μg/v)^2

8m * (μg/v)^2

If a marathon runner averages 9.51 mi/hr, how long does it take him to run a 26.220-mile marathon. Express your answers in hours

ASHA 777 [7]

Explanation:

Speed of the marathon runner, v = 9.51 mi/hr

Distance covered by the runner, d = 26.220 mile

Let t is the time taken by the marathon runner. We know that the speed of the runner is given by total distance divided by total time taken. Mathematically, it is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$
