Answer: D) directed downward.

Explanation:

We know that the constant acceleration of 9.87ms^{-2} of every-thing is always DIRECT DOWNWARDS because of the to the influence of the gravity of the Earth.

This motion is denoted as free fall motion , where the acceleration due to the gravity is constant 9.87ms^{-2}.

∴ A ball tossed vertically upward rises, reaches its highest point, and then falls back to its starting point. During this time the acceleration of the ball is always  directed downward.

Hence, the correct answer is D) directed downward..

Many minerals, such as silver, are good conductors of heat and electricity. How could technology use this property to help ident
Aleks [24]

Answer:

This property could be used to create technologically-advanced tools or machines that could easily locate the mineral deposits.

Explanation:

Mineral deposits are hard to find, unless you have the skill or the proper tools in locating them. This is the reason why many people are mining in order to explore the different areas where they could find these deposits.

If one would consider the property of minerals, such as being good conductors of heat and electricity,<u> then they could create a tool or machine that would aid in their exploration.</u> Inventors could probably come up with a sensitive detector which signals when it reaches an area of high heat and electric conductivity. Since most minerals such as <em>gold, silver, copper, galena, bornite </em>and the like have this property, then miners will have a lesser amount of time looking for them.

If this technology will be implemented, though, regulation policy must be strictly implemented because it might lead to<em> over-mining</em> thus leading to the depletion of mineral deposits.

8. How is the crystal size different for extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks?
eduard
<span>Igneous rocks which form by the crystallization of magma at a depth within the Earth are called intrusive rocks. Intrusive rocks are characterized by large crystal sizes, i.e., their visual appearance shows individual crystals interlocked together to form the rock mass.  hope that helped</span>

I would like to know why this is the correct answer
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

First, the obvious, as you press the gas pedal harder the acceleration goes up as well.  Conversely, is you do not press the pedal, you will not accelerate.  This determines that is I press the gas pedal, it will CAUSE the car to accelerate.  This proves causation.

Now, correlation.  The definition of correlation in statistics is any statistical relationship between two random variables or data.  This simply means that these two events are connected to one another.  A POSITIVE correlation is when two correlated events move in the same direction as one another.  I have added a graph to help visualize this.  In this problem as the gas is pressed harder, the acceleration increases.  If the pressure on the pedal was decreased, then the acceleration also decreases.  If the pressure on the pedal is constant, the the acceleration is constant.

I hope this helps!

A5.0 kg TNT explosive, initially at rest, explodes into two pieces. One of the pieces weighing 2.0 kg flies off to
nordsb [41]

Answer:

v = 24 m/s, rightwards

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of TBT explosive = 5 kg

It explodes into two pieces.

One of the pieces weighing 2.0 kg flies off to  the left at 36 m/s. Let left be negative and right be positive.

The law of conservation of momentum holds here. Let v be the final speed of the remaining piece. So,

5\times 0=2\times (-36)+3\times v\\\\-72=-3v\\\\v=24\ m/s

So, the final speed of the remaining piece is 24 m/s and it is in the right direction.

What amount of heat is required to raise the temperature of 25 grams of copper to cause a 15ºC change? The specific heat of copp
Lina20 [59]

The amount of heat required is B) 150 J

Explanation:

The amount of heat energy required to increase the temperature of a substance is given by the equation:

Q=mC\Delta T

where:

m is the mass of the substance

C is the specific heat capacity of the substance

\Delta T is the change in temperature of the substance

For the sample of copper in this problem, we have:

m = 25 g (mass)

C = 0.39 J/gºC (specific heat capacity of copper)

\Delta T = 15^{\circ}C (change in temperature)

Substituting, we find:

Q=(25)(0.39)(15)=146 J

So, the closest answer is B) 150 J.
