Cleavage<span> is the tendency of a </span>mineral<span> to break along smooth planes parallel to zones of weak bonding. Fracture is the tendency of a </span>mineral<span> to break along curved surfaces without a definite shape. These </span>minerals<span> do not have planes of weakness and break irregularly.</span>

Its when you cut/break a mineral and the break is flat 

ex. this is what it would look like after it has broke.

no, it not useless. we still learn Bohr's model in HS n dats almost 200 yr old! while there may be new models, previous one is good for explaining the basics. it is also useful to learn previous model n see how our understanding improves over time.

A girl pulls on a 10-kg wagon with a constant horizontal force of 30 N. If there are no other horizontal forces, what is the wag
strojnjashka [21]
Force equals mass*distance
F = ma

Given m = 10 kg, F = 30 N

30 = 10a
30/10 = a
3 = a

The wagon's acceleration is 3 m/s^2

Calculate the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

De broglie wavelength, \lambda = \frac{h}{mv}, where h is the Planck's constant,  m is the mass and v is the velocity.

h = 6.63*10^{-34}

Mass of hydrogen atom,  m = 1.67*10^{-27}kg

v = 440 m/s

Substituting

   Wavelength \lambda = \frac{h}{mv} = \frac{6.63*10^{-34}}{1.67*10^{-27}*440} = 0.902 *10^{-9}m = 902 *10^{-12}m

1 pm = 10^{-12}m\\ \\ So , \lambda =902 pm

So  the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s is 902 pm

Sort the sentences based on whether they describe radio waves, visible light waves, or both.
valentina_108 [34]

The electromagnetic spectrum includes a continuous spectrum of wavelengths that include:

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared light, visible, ultraviolet, X-rays, gamma rays

The wavelength decreases from radio waves to gamma rays, whereas the energy increases along the same direction.

In the given example, radio waves have a lower energy and higher wavelength than visible light. The latter can be perceived by the human eye, whereas radio waves are not visible to the human eye.

1) They have colors = visible light

2) They can travel in a vacuum  = both

3) They have energy = both

4) They’re used to learn about  dust and gas clouds = radio waves

5) They’re used to find the  temperature of stars  = visible light

6)They’re invisible = radio waves
