<span>The relative hardness of a mineral can be tested by the Moh’s scale or the mineral hardness. The Moh’s scale can be characterized by the ability of the mineral to resist scratch resistance by scratching a harder or softer mineral. It has a scale of 1 to 10 where 1 being the softest and 10 being the hardest. The relative hardness of a mineral can best be tested by scratching the mineral across a glass plate. The answer is letter A. </span>

scientific endeavor should only be pursued after known tradeoffs associated with the research have been considered. True or Fals

AfilCa [17]

This is false. There were many times in history when people discovered something that they didn't even know was possible or didn't even plan to discover it. Knowing tradeoffs doesn't mean that something won't surprise you or that all will go according to plan.

The instantaneous speed of a particle moving along one straight line is v(t) = ate−6t, where the speed v is measured in meters p

beks73 [17]

Answer:

v_max = (1/6)e^-1 a

Explanation:

You have the following equation for the instantaneous speed of a particle:

$v(t)=ate^{-6t}$ (1)

To find the expression for the maximum speed in terms of the acceleration "a", you first derivative v(t) respect to time t:

$\frac{dv(t)}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[ate^{-6t}]=a[(1)e^{-6t}+t(e^{-6t}(-6))]$ (2)

where you have use the derivative of a product.

Next, you equal the expression (2) to zero in order to calculate t:

$a[(1)e^{-6t}-6te^{-6t}]=0\\\\1-6t=0\\\\t=\frac{1}{6}$

For t = 1/6 you obtain the maximum speed.

Then, you replace that value of t in the expression (1):

$v_{max}=a(\frac{1}{6})e^{-6(\frac{1}{6})}=\frac{e^{-1}}{6}a$

hence, the maximum speed is v_max = ((1/6)e^-1)a

The independent variable would be the cleaning products.

The independent variable is the variable that you can manipulate. The change in the independent variable is not affected by other variables. So in this case, the independent variable would be the cleaning product because you will be changing it.
