It's a hardness scale from 1-10 determining how easy or hard it is to scratch the mineral.

Remember that talc (like chalk or baby powder) is the softest and easiest to scratch then diamond being 10 is the hardest mineral to scratch or break or cut

An electron moves through a uniform electric field vector E = (2.80î + 5.20ĵ) V/m and a uniform magnetic field vector B = 0.400k
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1.758820×10^11(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question, the parameters given are; E=(2.80i+ 5.20j) v/m, a uniform magnetic field,B= 0.400K T, acceleration, a= ??? and velocity vector, v= 11.0i metre per seconds (m/s)...

We can solve this problem using the formula below;

Ma= q[E+V × B] ---------------(1).

Note: q is negative, m= mass of electron.

Making acceleration,a the subject of the formula and substituting the parameters into equation (1);

a= -e/m × (2.5i + 5.2j +11.0i × 0.400K)

a= -e/m × (2.5i+5.2j-4.4j)

a= e/m × (-2.5i - 0.8j)

e/m= 1.758820×10^11 c/kg

Therefore, slotting in the value of charge to mass(e/m) ratio;

a= 1.7588×10^11×(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2

Insulators have very high .
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Resistance to electrical currents

Explanation:

Conductors have low resistance to electrical currents, and are used to "conduct" the flow of electricity.

Insulators have very high resistance and are used to protect us from the flow of electricity.

How can you tell if an igneous rock has an intrusive or extrusive origin?
wariber [46]

Intrusive igneous rocks cool down from magma slowly because they form underneath the surface, that will make them have large crystals.

Extrusive igneous rocks cool down from lava rapidly because they form at the surface, so that will make them have small crystals.
