Answer:here you goo

Explanation:

A mineral is a naturally occurring inorganic element or compound having an orderly internal structure and characteristic chemical composition, crystal form, and physical properties. ... A rock is an aggregate of one or more minerals, or a body of undifferentiated mineral matter.

Shay reacts solid zinc and aqueous copper sulfate to form aqueous zinc sulfate and solid copper. If he reacts 10.1 grams of zinc
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Now since mass of reactant is equal to mass of the product after the reaction so we can say that mass conservation is applicable here

Explanation:

As we know that zinc reacts with copper sulfate

so the reaction is given as

Zn + CuSO_4 --> ZnSO_4 + Cu

so here we have

Zn = 10.1 g

CuSO_4 = 18.6 g

ZnSO_4 = 20 g

Cu = 8.7 g

Now total mass of reactant is given as

M_1 = 10.1 + 18.6 = 28.7 g

Mass of the product is given as

M_2 = 20 + 8.7 = 28.7 g

Now since mass of reactant is equal to mass of the product after the reaction so we can say that mass conservation is applicable here

A distant large asteroid is detected that might pose a threat to Earth. If it were to continue moving in a straight line at cons
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.

Explanation:

To escape earth, the kinetic energy of the asteroid must be greater or equal to its gravitational potential energy:

K.E\geq P.E

or

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 \geq  G\dfrac{Mm}{R}

where m is the mass of the asteroid, R= 24,000,000\:m is its distance form earth's center, M = 5.9*10^{24}kg is the mass of the earth, and G = 6.7*10^{-11}m^3/kg\: s^2 is the gravitational constant.

Solving for v we get:

v \geq \sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{R} }

putting in numerical values gives

v \geq \sqrt{\dfrac{2(6.7*10^{-11})(5.9*10^{24})}{(24,000,000)} }

\boxed{v\geq 5739.5m/s}

in kilometers this is

v\geq5.7395m/s.

Hence, the minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.

5. No matter what month and date your birthday is on, NASA says it has a significant picture from
padilas [110]

Answer:

The Hubble space telescope.

Explanation:

Hubble is a telescope that observers the sky 24/7 non-stop, which means that for every day of the year it would have made a significant discovery, which of course includes your birthday. Furthermore, you can actually go to NASA website and find out what discovery was made on your birthday! This shows both the vastness of the universe <em>(it really has to be huge for a telescope to have a discovery for each day of the year!) </em> and the ceaseless work of the telescope!

Dr. Clairmont will have his psychology students training dogs from the local animal shelter to sit using various types of reinfo
olga2289 [7]

Answer:Habituation is a simple learned behavior in which an animal gradually stops responding to a repeated stimulus.

Imprinting is a specialized form of learning that occurs during a brief period in young animals—e.g., ducks imprinting on their mother.

In classical conditioning, a new stimulus is associated with a pre-existing response through repeated pairing of new and previously known stimuli.

In operant conditioning, an animal learns to perform a behavior more or less frequently through a reward or punishment that follows the behavior.

Some animals, especially primates, are capable of more complex forms of learning, such as problem-solving and the construction of mental maps.

Introduction

If you own a dog—or have a friend who owns a dog—you probably know that dogs can be trained to do things like sit, beg, roll over, and play dead. These are examples of learned behaviors, and dogs can be capable of significant learning. By some estimates, a very clever dog has cognitive abilities on par with a two-and-a-half-year-old human!
