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

Describe the forces involved in Throwing a spear
Alexeev081 [22]

Explanation:

The center of gravity is near the grip and does not change during throw. "Throwing through the tip," a popular term of how to throw a javelin, means throwing through the grip or center of gravity. The center of pressure is the aerodynamic force of drag and lift on the javelin.

a concrete slab 20 m long and weighing 400,000 N is supported by one pillar. If a 19,600 N car is parked 8 meters from one end.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

let the distance of pillar is "r" from one end of the slab

So here net torque must be balance with respect to pillar to be in balanced state

So here we will have

Mg(r - L/2) = mg(L/2 - 8)

here we know that

mg = 19600 N

Mg = 400,000 N

L = 20 m

from above equation we have

400,000(r - 10) = 19,600 (10 - 8)

r - 10 = 0.098

r = 10.098 m

so pillar is at distance 10.098 m from one end of the slab

A wall clock has a second hand 22.0 cmcm long. For related problem-solving tips and strategies, you may want to view a Video Tut
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

The tip of the second hand moves on a circular path having radius equal to .22 m . Redial acceleration is given by the expression

ω²R where ω is angular velocity and R is radius of the circular path .

angular velocity of second hand = 2π / T where T is time period of circular motion . For second hand it is 60 s.

ω = 2π / T

= 2π / 60

= .1047

angular acceleration =  .1047² x .22

= 2.41 x 10⁻³ rad / s² .
