Explain the difference between cleavage and fracture

1 answer:

7 0

Fracture is the characteristic way a mineral breaks. The difference between cleavage and fracture is that cleavage is the break of a crystal face where a new crystal face is formed where the mineral broke, whereas fracture is the "chipping" of a mineral making it Uneven - A fracture that leaves a rough or irregular surface.

Suppose that the velocity (in meters per second) of a sky diver falling near the Earth's surface is given by the following expon

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

4.7 s

Explanation:

The complete question is presented in the attached image to this solution.

v(t) = 61 - 61e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ

At what time will v(t) = 43 m/s?

We just substitute 43 m/s into the equation for the velocity of the diver and solve for t.

43 = 61 - 61e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ

- 61e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ = 43 - 61 = -18

e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ = (18/61) = 0.2951

In e⁻⁰•²⁶ᵗ = In 0.2951 = -1.2205

-0.26t = -1.2205

t = (1.2205/0.26) = 4.694 s = 4.7 s to the nearest tenth.

Hope this Helps!!!

Chemicals in clouds can cause rainstorms to occur

Brilliant_brown [7]

The answer to the given statement above would be FALSE. It is not true that chemicals in clouds can cause rainstorms to occur. Rather, rainstorms happen when cumulonimbus clouds are formed. Rainstorms include <span>moisture, unstable air and lift. Hope this answers your question.</span>

When a 12 V battery is connected to a 6 uF capacitor, how much energy is stored

adoni [48]

The energy stored in a capacitor is

E = (1/2) · (capacitance) · (voltage)²

E = (1/2) · (6 x 10⁻⁶ F) · (12 V)²

E = (3 x 10⁻⁶ F) · (144 V²)

<em>E = 4.32 x 10⁻⁴ Joule</em>

(That's 0.000432 of a Joule)
