The relative hardness of a mineral can best be tested by

1 answer:

6 0

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.

Initial velocity 10 m/s accelerates at 5 m/s for 2 seconds whats the final velocity

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The final velocity is 20 m/s.

Explanation:

Constant Acceleration Motion

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, and t the time, the final speed can be calculated as follows:

$v_f=v_o+at$

The provided data is: vo=10 m/s, $a=5\ m/s^2$ , t=2 s. The final velocity is:

$v_f=10~m/s+5\ m/s^2\cdot 2\ s$

$v_f=20\ m/s$

The final velocity is 20 m/s.

What's the difference between electromagnetic waves and electromagnetic spectrum?

White raven [17]

The difference between the two is, well for one

Spectrum: The entire range that the "waves" could be such, as visible light, x-ray's and so on.

Waves: These are different because they aren't telling you or showing the entire spectrum just which they length that they are.

It may confuse you but it makes sense to me (Sorry)

Two particles, one with charge -5.45 × 10^-6 C and one with charge 4.39 × 10^-6 C, are 0.0209 meters apart. What is the magnitud

Levart [38]

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge 1, $q_1=-5.45\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Charge 2, $q_2=4.39\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance between charges, r = 0.0209 m

1. The electric force is given by :

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

$F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{-5.45\times 10^{-6}\times 4.39\times 10^{-6}}{(0.0209)^2}$

F = -492.95 N

2. Distance between two identical charges, $r=0.0209\ m$

Electric force is given by :

$F=\dfrac{kq_3^2}{r^2}$

$q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}$

$q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{492.95\times (0.0209)^2}{9\times 10^9}}$

$q_3=4.89\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Hence, this is the required solution.
