Answer:

The correct options are A, B, C and E

Explanation:

The above speaks to the characteristics of Minerals.

Option D is excluded because minerals cannot be liquid or gaseous. Even if it is possible, those replicated in the laboratory are not considered as minerals neither are minerals liquid. They must be solid. The molecules for most minerals are very tightly or densely arranged because of the nature of their formation. Most of them are formed under consistent and intense pressure.

Cheers!

f the CD rotates clockwise at 500 rpmrpm (revolutions per minute) while the last song is playing, and then spins down to zero an

vazorg [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of the angular acceleration is $a = 20.14 rad/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The angular speed of CD is $w_{CD} = 500 rpm = \frac{500 rpm}{\frac{60 \ s }{1 \ min} } * \frac{2 \pi }{ 1 \ rev} = 52.37 rad/s$

time taken to decelerate is $t_{CD} = 2.60\ s$

The final angular speed is $w_f= 0 \ rad/s$

The angular acceleration is mathematically represented as

$a = \frac{w_f - w_{CD}}{t}$

substituting values

$a = \frac{0 - 52.37}{2.60}$

$a = - 20.14 rad/s^2$

The negative sign show that the CD is decelerating but the magnitude is

$a = 20.14 rad/s^2$

A 150 g air-track glider is attached to a spring. The glider is pushed in 8.80 cm and released. A student with a stopwatch finds

Alla [95]

Answer:

2.06 N/m

Explanation:

The system makes 10.0 complete oscillations in 17.0 s. So, the frequency of the system is

$f=\frac{10.0}{17.0 s}=0.59 Hz$

The angular frequency of the system is given by

$\omega = 2\pi f=2\pi (0.59 Hz)=3.71 rad/s$

In a simple harmonic motion, the angular frequency is related to the mass and the spring constant by

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

where

k is the spring constant

m is the mass

Here we know

$\omega=3.71 rad/s\\m = 150 g = 0.150 kg$

So we can solve the formula to find k:

$k=\omega^2 m = (3.71 rad/s)^2 (0.150 kg)=2.06 N/m$

A train starts at rest in a station and accelerates at a constant 0.987 m/s2 for 182 seconds. Then the train decelerates at a co

algol [13]

Answer:

$\displaystyle X_T=66.6\ km$

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion </u>

When a body changes its speed at a constant rate, i.e. same changes take same times, then it has a constant acceleration. The acceleration can be positive or negative. In the first case, the speed increases, and in the second time, the speed lowers until it eventually stops. The equation for the speed vf at any time t is given by

$\displaystyle V_f=V_o+a\ t$

where a is the acceleration, and vo is the initial speed .

The train has two different types of motion. It first starts from rest and has a constant acceleration of $0.987 m/s^2$ for 182 seconds. Then it brakes with a constant acceleration of $-0.321 m/s^2$ until it comes to a stop. We need to find the total distance traveled.

The equation for the distance is

$\displaystyle X=V_o\ t+\frac{a\ t^2}{2}$

Our data is

$\displaystyle V_o=0,a=0.987m/s^2,\ t=182\ sec$

Let's compute the first distance X1

$\displaystyle X_1=0+\frac{0.987\times 182^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle X_1=16,346.7\ m$

Now, we find the speed at the end of the first period of time

$\displaystyle V_{f1}=0+0.987\times 182$

$\displaystyle V_{f1}=179.6\ m/s$

That is the speed the train is at the moment it starts to brake. We need to compute the time needed to stop the train, that is, to make vf=0

$\displaystyle V_o=179.6,a=-0.321\ m/s^2\ ,V_f=0$

$\displaystyle t=\frac{v_f-v_o}{a}=\frac{0-179.6}{-0.321}$

$\displaystyle t=559.5\ sec$

Computing the second distance

$\displaystyle X_2=179.6\times559.5\ \frac{-0.321\times 559.5^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle X_2=50,243.2\ m$

The total distance is

$\displaystyle X_t=x_1+x_2=16,346.7+50,243.2$

$\displaystyle X_t=66,589.9\ m$

$\displaystyle \boxed{X_T=66.6\ km}$

What is the Scientific definition of friction?

seropon [69]

Friction<span> is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. It is not a fundamental force, like gravity or electromagnetism. Instead, scientists believe it is the result of the electromagnetic attraction between charged particles in two touching surfaces.
Hope this is of great help to you, and happy studying~!
