Quartz, gold and calcite are all good examples of minerals. They all fit to the characteristics of minerals.
Minerals are usually inorganic and in a solid state. It has crystal structure and can be represented by a chemical formula. Minerals and rocks are distinct. It can be described in many different physical properties in relation to their chemical composition and structure. The most common characteristics of minerals includes, colour, streak, lustre, habit, hardness, tenacity, cleavage, fracture, specific gravity and parting..

A 75-g projectile traveling at 600 m /s strikes and becomes embedded in the 40-kg block, which is ini-tially stationary. Compute

levacccp [35]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Mass, m = 75 g

Velocity, v = 600 m/s

As no external force is acting on the system in the horizontal line of motion. So, the equation will be as follows.

$m_{1}v_{1_{i}} = (m_{1} + m_{2})vi$

where, $m_{1}$ = mass of the projectile

$m_{2}$ = mass of block

v = velocity after the impact

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

$m_{1}v_{1_{i}} = (m_{1} + m_{2})vi$

$75(10^{-3}) \times 600 = [(75 \times 10^{-3}) + 50] \times v$

= $\frac{45}{50.075}$

v = 0.898 m/s

Now, equation for energy is as follows.

E = $\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

= $\frac{1}{2} \times (75 \times 10^{-3} + 50) \times (600)^{2}$

= 13500 J

Now, energy after the impact will be as follows.

E' = $\frac{1}{2}[75 \times 10^{-3} + 50](0.9)^{2}$

= 20.19 J

Therefore, energy lost will be calculated as follows.

$\Delta E$ = E E'

= (13500 - 20) J

= 13480 J

And, n = $\frac{\Delta E}{E}$

= $\frac{13480}{13500} \times 100$

= 99.85

= 99.9%

Thus, we can conclude that percentage n of the original system energy E is 99.9%.

What is the magnitude of the gravitational force of attraction to Jupiter exerts on IO

kotegsom [21]

The gravity force between Jupiter and Io will be 6.343 × 10²² N.

<h3>What is Newton's law of gravitation?</h3>

Newton's law of gravity states that each particle having mass in the universe attracts each other particle with a force known as the gravitational force.

Given data;

Mass of Jupiter, $\rm m_j = 1.9 \times 10^{27} \ kg$

Mass of moon of Jupiter, $\rm m_{i_0}= 8.9 \times 10^{22} \ kg$ ]

The gravitational constant is, $\rm G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11 } \ m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}$

Distance between Jupiter and Io, R = 421,700 km = 4,217,00,000 m

The gravitational force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of their distance.

The gravitational force is found as;

$\rm F = G \frac{ m_J m_{I_0}}{R^2} \\\\\ F = (6.67\times 10^{-11}) \frac{( (1.9\times 10^{27})\times (8.9\times 10^{22} )} { (421700000)^2}\\\\ F_g = 6.343 \times 10^{22} \ N$

Hence, the gravity force between Jupiter and Io will be 6.343 × 10²² N.

The complete question is

"Jupiter has a mass of 1.9 × 1027 kg, and its moon Io has a mass of 8.9 × 1022 kg. Their centers are separated by a distance of 421,700 km what is the force of gravity acting on Io? "

Both the lens and the cornea of the eye have a primary function of

3241004551 [841]

Answer: B. bending light

Explanation:

The phenomenom of vision in human eye is thanks to refraction (when light changes its direction as it passes through one medium to another), and this is what the cornea and the lens do.

When the ray of light encounters the eye, the first thing it finds is the cornea, which bends this ray and begins to form an image, then light passes through the pupil, which is in charge of regulating the amount of light that enters in the eye.

After light travels through pupil it passes through the lens, where the rays of light change the direction again in order to focus the formed image on the retina.

At this point it is important to note the formed image is downward, then the retina transforms light into electrical impulses that are sent to the brain through the optic nerve and finally the brain interprets these messages, and forms a right upward image.

In the image attached these parts can be seen.
