1 answer:
Nina [5.8K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B

the mineral which is pinkish and light in color with wavy lines is potassium feldspar .                                                      

pyroxene is a mineral is typically dark in color generally it's color is  dark green.                                                                  

amphibole is also dark in color an is in green color.

olivine is a mineral which is in olive green color.

Quartz is a mineral which is light colored and it is also pink in color but it does not have wavy line.

Common transparent tape becomes charged when pulled from a dispenser. If one piece is placed above another, the repulsice force
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Q = 1.095 x 10^-9 C

Let the force experienced by the top piece of tape be F

F = kQ²/r²

r = distance between the two pieces tape = 1.00cm = 1.00 x 10^ -2 m

1/4(pi)*Eo = k = 8.99 x 10^9 Nm²/C²

The electric force of repulsion between the two charges and the weight of the top piece of tape are equal so

F = kQ²/r² = mg

Where m is the mass of the top piece of tape and g is the acceleration due to gravity

On re-arranging the equation above,

Q² = mgr²/k

Q² = ((11.0 x 10^-6) x 9.8 x (1.00x10^-2)²)/(8.99 x 10^9)

Q = 1.095x10^-9 C

Explanation:

The charge Q on both pieces of tape are equal and both act with a force of repulsion on each other.

The force of repulsion between both tapes pushes the top piece of tape upwards. The weight of the top piece of tape acts vertically downward. Since the top tape is in a position of equilibrium, the two forces acting on the top piece of tape must be equal to each other. This assumption is backed up by newton's first law of motion which states that the summation of all forces acting on a body at rest must be equal to zero. That is

Fe (electric force) - Fg (gravitational force) = 0

Fe = Fg

kQ²/r² = mg

On substituting the respective values for all variables except Q and rearranging the equation Q = 1.09 x 10^-9

A dielectric-filled parallel-plate capacitor has plate area A = 30.0 cm2 , plate separation d = 9.00 mm and dielectric constant
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

9.96\cdot 10^{-10}J

Explanation:

The capacitance of the parallel-plate capacitor is given by

C=\epsilon_0 k \frac{A}{d}

where

ϵ0 = 8.85x10-12 C2/N.m2 is the vacuum permittivity

k = 3.00 is the dielectric constant

A=30.0 cm^2 = 30.0\cdot 10^{-4}m^2 is the area of the plates

d = 9.00 mm = 0.009 m is the separation between the plates

Substituting,

C=(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)(3.00 ) \frac{30.0\cdot 10^{-4} m^2}{0.009 m}=8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F

Now we can calculate the energy of the capacitor, given by:

U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2

where

C is the capacitance

V = 15.0 V is the potential difference

Substituting,

U=\frac{1}{2}(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F)(15.0 V)^2=9.96\cdot 10^{-10}J

Scientists can use the location and depth of where a fossil is found to estimate the age of the fossil. To do this, they use
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

C the Law of Superposition

Explanation:

Basically the law of Superposition is applied in this regard. The law states that "the oldest layer is on the bottom and the youngest layer is on top".

When we find fossils at a particular depth we can relatively date a rock based on the strata we find them. A fossil in place in bottom beds will be older than the one in the topmost layer. Fossils also succeed one another in a definite pattern according to the principle of fossil and fauna succession.
