He performed a streak test, in which a piece of the mineral is rubbed across a piece of unglazed porcelain in order to determine the color of the mineral in powdered form.
Answer:
a.Beth
b.2232 s
Explanation:
We are given that
Distance,d=400 mi
Speed of Alan,v=45 mph
Speed of Beth,v'=55 mph
a.Time =
Using the formula
Time taken by Alan=
Time taken by Beth=
Alan will reach San Francisco at 4:53 PM
Beth will reach San Francisco at 4:16 PM
Beth will reach before Alan.
b.Difference between time=8.89-7.27=1.62 hr
t=1.62 hr
1.62-1=0.62 hr
0.62 hr=
Hence, Beth has to wait 2232 s for Alan to arrive .
Answer:
m = 2218.67 kg
Explanation:
It is given that,
Initial velocity, u = 7.5 m/s
Final speed of an object, v = 0 (at rest)
Force, F = 5.2 kN
Time, t = 3.2 s
We need to find the mass of the object. Force acting on an object is given by :
F = ma
m is mass, a is acceleration

So, the mass of the object is 2218.67 kg
