Answer:

Explanation:

The calcite Crystal can be identified by carrying out an acid test on it. This is done by bringing it in contact with a weak acid which cause crack in it structure. Hence a little of carbondioxide gas is released.

Since diamond is the hardest object,it can be identified on a Mohs scale. Likewise it can be tested by bringing it in contact with a newspaper, if the letters on the paper are not seen, that shows it is a pure diamond.

Window glass is identified by the code on it.

While Quartz Crystal is identified by scratch test. When it is used to scratch all other softer stones and metal, it leaves mark on them.

An 888.0 kg elevator is moving downward with a velocity of 0.800 m/s. It decelerates uniformly and comes to a stop in a distance
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The value of tension on the cable T = 1065.6 N

Explanation:

Mass = 888 kg

Initial velocity ( u )= 0.8 \frac{m}{sec}

Final velocity ( V ) = 0

Distance traveled before come to rest = 0.2667 m

Now use third law of motion V^{2} = u^{2} - 2 a s

Put all the values in above formula we get,

⇒ 0 = 0.8^{2} - 2 × a ×0.2667

⇒ a = 1.2 \frac{m}{sec^{2} }

This is the deceleration of the box.

Tension in the cable is given by T = F = m × a

Put all the values in above formula we get,

T = 888 × 1.2

T = 1065.6 N

This is the value of tension on the cable.
