Hardness refers to the strength of the forces holding atoms together in a solid mineral. The Mohs scale will tell how easily a m

ineral can be scratched. It has a range from 1 to 10. Diamonds are a 10 on the Mohs scale. They are the hardest minerals in the world. The color of a mineral is often easy to identify. Many minerals are found in a range of colors. This is true for diamonds also. They can be yellow, brown, blue, green, orange, purple, black, pink, red, or colorless. Colored diamonds have impurities that cause them to change colors. Colorless diamonds, however, are very pure. Luster refers to how a mineral looks when it reflects light. A minerals luster could be metallic, dull, pearly, or adamantine. Diamonds have adamantine luster–their brilliant sparkle. Streak refers to the color of the powder left by a mineral. Streak is often found after a mineral is scratched on a porcelain tile. The color of the streak left on the tile helps to identify the mineral. The streak of a diamond is white.

An 8.00 kg mass moving east at 15.4 m/s on a frictionless horizontal surface collides with a 10.0 kg object that is initially at
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

9.3m/s

Explanation:

Based on the law of conservation of momentum

Sum of momentum before collision = sum of momentum after collision

m1u1 +m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2

m1 = 8kg

u1 = 15.4m/s

m2 = 10kg

u2 = 0m/s(at rest)

v1 = 3.9m/s

Required

v2.

Substitute

8(15.4)+10(0) = 8(3.9)+10v2

123.2=31.2+10v2

123.2-31.2 = 10v2

92 = 10v2

v2 = 92/10

v2 = 9.2m/s

Hence the velocity of the 10.0 kg object after the collision is 9.2m/s

Which pair of quantities includes one quantity that increases as the other decreases during simple harmonic motion?
11111nata11111 [884]

Kinetic energy and potential energy pair is the quantity in which one will increase then other will decrease

As we know that sum of kinetic energy and potential energy will always remain conserved

So here we will have

KE + PE = constant

so here as we move away from mean position the kinetic energy will decrease while at the same time potential energy will increase.

So the pair of potential energy and kinetic energy will satisfy the above condition
