san4es73 [151]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A mineral is a valuable form of ore that can be extracted from the ground

Explanation:

Gold, quartz and talc are minerals because they are found in the earth in a valuable form of ore while ores are rocks that contain valuable concentrations of minerals.that can be mined.

An ORE in general term can be said to be a mineral deposit that contains enough Minerals that can be mined in commercial quantities while Minerals are valuable components of an Ore that can be mined ( naturally occurring ) in an ORE.

If you start with a substance as a solid, what will happen to the molecules as you add thermal energy (heat)?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

C. molecules speed up as more thermal energy is added

Explanation:

The molecules will simply speed up as more thermal energy is added to the solid.

Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is set in motion.

  • Heat causes kinetic energy build up in a body.
  • As the molecules of the solid gains heat, they will continue to increase in thermal energy.
  • They are forced to start vibrating about their fixed point.
  • Thereafter, when they have enough energy, they break free from the forces holding them.
  • Therefore, they move from a state of rest to one with a very high kinetic energy where the molecules moves rapidly.
  • This is why a solid will change to liquid and sometimes eventually gas

A 4.0-m-diameter playground merry-go-round, with a moment of inertia of
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

7.1 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

d = diameter of merry-go-round = 4 m

r = radius of merry-go-round = \frac{d}{2} =  \frac{4}{2} = 2 m

I = moment of inertia = 500 kgm²

w_{i} = angular velocity of merry-go-round before ryan jumps = 2.0 rad/s

w_{f} = angular velocity of merry-go-round after ryan jumps = 0 rad/s

v = velocity of ryan before jumping onto the merry-go-round

m = mass of ryan = 70 kg

Using conservation of angular momentum

Iw_{i} - m v r = (I + mr^{2})w_{f}

(500)(2.0) - (70) v (2) = (I + mr^{2})(0)

1000 = 140 v

v = 7.1 ms⁻¹

7. If 8 million kg of water flows over Niagara Falls each second, calculate the power available at the bottom of the falls.
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The power will be "3.92×10⁹ Watts". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values as per the question,

Rate,

= 8 million kg

Distance,

= 50 m

Gravity,

= 9.8 m/s²

As we know,

The power will be:

⇒ Power = Rate\times Distance\times  Gravity

On putting the values, we get

⇒             =  8\times 10^6\times 50\times 9.8

⇒             =3.92\times 10^9 \  Watts
