Minerals are the naturally occurring substance. All minerals have a specific chemical formula.

So, the statement that is correct about the plastic and the concrete is :

Both plastic and concrete are not minerals. This is because they are made by humans.

Plastics are produced by a process of polymerization or polycondensation process and cement is produced by mixing water, aggregate, and cement, etc.

Hence, the correct option is (b).

What is the specific heat of an unknown substance if 2000 J of energy are required to raise the temperature of 4 grams of the su

Dmitriy789 [7]

The energy required to heat a substance is related by the formula:
Q = mCpΔT ; where Q is the energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cp is the specific heat capacity and ΔT is the change in temperature.
2000 = (4)(Cp)(5)
Cp = 100 Joules / g °C

Why cant your rocket could never reach the speed of light?

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

The length of the object would shrink to zero which is not possible.

Explanation:

A rocket or any body cannot reach the speed of light because according to theory of relativity the and the Lorentz factor the length of the object would shrink to zero and the time dilation for that body would be infinite.

The Lorentz factor is given as:

$\gamma=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\frac{v^2}{c^2} } }$

where:

v = speed of the moving object

c = speed of light
