Answer:

c. streak

Explanation:

Pyrite is a mineral that looks like gold but actually is iron disulfide.

Pyrite and gold have comparable luster.

Pyrite and gold have different tones of yellow. This can be determined by their streak. Streak is the powdered form of a mineral. A streak of mineral can be found just by rubbing the mineral on a rough surface and comparing the colors.

Pyrite is diamagnetic which is not a strong form of magnetism. Gold is also diamagnetic

rewona [7]

Answer:

86.4 m  horizontal from landing spot

Explanation:

Find out how long before the ball hits the ground

 vertical speed  of ball = -2  m/s     gravity = - 9.81 m/s^2

find time to hit ground from 100 m  

          ( height will be<u> zero</u> when it hits the ground)

<u>0 </u>=  100  - 2 t  - 1/2 ( 9.81) t^2

        use Quadratic Formula to find t = 4.32 seconds

              horizontal speed of ball = 20 m/s  

in 4.32 seconds it will travel horizontally   20  m/s * 4.32 s = 86.4 m

Darya [45]
<span>As a car drives with its tires rolling freely without any slippage, the type of friction acting between the tires and the road is kinetic friction.

We exert force to move the object from rest and in this case, static friction works. But, when the object comes in motion, then kinetic friction works. Here, since the car is driving without slipping means, kinetic friction acts on it. Its also called sliding or dynamic friction.</span>

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

W = 0

Explanation:

We are given with, a construction worker is carrying a load of 40 kg over his head and is walking at a constant velocity. He travels a distance of 50 m.

The work done by an object is given by :

W=Fd

F = ma

So,

W=mad

m is mass

a is acceleration

d is displacement

The worker is moving with constant velocity, its acceleration will be 0. So, the work done by the worker is 0.
