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.

<em>Anything</em> that's dropped through air is somewhat affected by air resistance.  But, out of that list, the leaf and the balloon are the items that will be affected by air resistance enough so that you can plainly see it.

If you spend some time thinking about it, you can kind of understand why airplane wings and boat propellers are shaped more like leafs and balloons than like bricks and rocks.

What makes up a atom
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

They're typically made up of three main parts: protons, neutrons and electrons. Think of the protons and neutrons as together forming a “sun”, or nucleus, at the centre of the system. The electrons orbit this nucleus, like planets. If atoms are impossibly small, these subatomic particles are even more so.

Chris and Jamie are carrying Wayne on a horizontal stretcher. The uniform stretcher is 2.00 m long and weighs 100 N. Wayne weigh
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

<h2>E. 650N</h2>

Explanation:

step one:

given

length of stretcher= 2m

weight of stretcher=100N

Wayne weighs =800N

distance of Wayne weighs from chris's end= 75cm= 0.75m

The force that Chris is exerting to support the stretcher, with Wayne on it, can be computed by taking moments of the weight of the stretcher and Wayne weighs  about Chris's end, the end result is the reaction at Chris's end

Taking moment about Chris's end

The moment of Wayne weight 75cm from Chris+ Half the weight of stretcher 1m from Chris

0.75*800+50*1=0

600+50=0

650N
