A. Opal
B. Diamond
C. Garnet
D. Topaz

Answers

Answer:

C. Garnet

Explanation:

density = mass/volume

density = 6.24g/1.98cm^3

density = 3.15 g/cm^3 (Garnet)

Hope this helps!

Garnets are minerals that can be found as single crystals, pebble-like formations, or masses of intergrown crystals.They are opaque, transparent to translucent minerals. Thus, option C is correct.

What are the physical properties of Garnet?

A garnet has a volume of 1.6 cubic centimetres and a density of 3.5 grams per cubic centimetre. The proportion of a mineral's mass to volume is known as density. It is a measurement of how much “stuff” can fit into the space a mineral takes up.

Garnets can be found in a variety of colours, including orange, yellow, green, purple, brown, blue, black, pink, and colorless, but are most usually found in reddish tones.There are very few blue garnets.

Therefore, density = mass/volume density = 6.24g/1.98 cm^3 density = 3.15 g/cm^3 (Garnet).

5) A 20.0 kg cart with no friction wheels sits on a table. A light string is attached to it and runs over a low friction pulley to a 0.0150 kg mass.

Draw a free body diagram showing all the forces acting on each object
Calculate the acceleration of the masses
Calculate the tension force in the cord
How long will it take the block to get to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table.
What will the velocity be as soon as it gets to the edge?

Answers

Answer:

1) Please find attached, created with Microsoft Visio

2) The acceleration of the masses connected by the light string is 0.00735 m/s²

3) The tension in the cord is 0.147 N

4) The time it would take the block to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table is approximately 18.07 s

5) The velocity of the cart as soon as it gets to the edge of the table is 0.042 m/s

Explanation:

1) Please find attached, the required free body diagram, showing the tension, weight and frictional (zero friction) forces acting on the cart and the mass created with Microsoft Visio

2) The acceleration of the masses connected by the light string is given as follows;

F = Mass, m × Acceleration, a

The mass of the truck, M = 20.0 kg

The mass attached to the string, hanging rom the pulley, m = 0.0150 kg

The force, F acting on the system = The pulling force on the cart = The tension on the cable = The weight of the hanging mass = 0.0150 × 9.8 = 0.147 N

The pulling force acting on the cart, F = M × a

∴ F = 0.147 N = 20.0 kg × a

a = 0.147 N/(20.0 kg) = 0.00735 m/s²

The acceleration of the truck = a = 0.00735 m/s²

3) The tension in the cord = F = 0.147 N

4) The time, t, it would take the block to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table is given by the kinematic equation, s = u·t + 1/2·a·t²

Where;

s = The distance to the edge of the table = 1.2 m

u = The initial velocity = 0 m/s (The cart is assumed to be initially at rest)

a = The acceleration of the cart = 0.00735 m/s²

t = The time taken

Substituting the known values, gives;

s = u·t + 1/2·a·t²

1.2 = 0 × t + 1/2 ×0.00735 × t²

1.2 = 1/2 ×0.00735 × t²

t² = 1.2/(1/2 ×0.00735) ≈ 326.5306

t = √(1.2/(1/2 ×0.00735)) ≈ 18.07

The time it would take the block to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table = t ≈ 18.07 s

5) The velocity, v, of the cart as soon as it gets to the edge of the table is given by the kinematic equation, v² = u² + 2·a·s as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

u = 0 m/s

v² = 0² + 2 × 0.00735 × 1.2 = 0.001764

v = √(0.001764) = 0.042

The velocity of the cart as soon as it gets to the edge of the table = v = 0.042 m/s.

Many large and small rocks are found under glaciers. Explain how these rocks are both weathered and eroded.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation below

Explanation:

Ice, mostly in the form of glaciers can create different landforms as it erodes the earth. In some areas with mountains, the glaciers move gradually downhill and across the land areas. When they move, the transport virtually everything on their path, ranging from small grains of sands to huge boulders.  

As these glaciers flow, the rocks being carried in the process scrape against the ground and erode both the ground and the rocks. Rocks are being ground up and oils are scrapped away.  

The main types of erosion created by the glaciers are abrasion and plucking.

A football player at practice pushes a 80 kg blocking sled across the field at a constant speed. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the grass and the sled is 0.30. How much force must he apply to the sled

Answers

Answer:

The value is  [tex]F = 235.2 \ N[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the sled is  [tex]m = 80 \ kg[/tex]

  The  coefficient of friction is  [tex]\mu = 0.30[/tex]

Generally the force that must be applied to the sled is equal to the frictional force experienced by the sled which is mathematically represented as

       [tex]F = m * \mu * g[/tex]

=>    [tex]F = 80 * 0.30 * 9.8[/tex]

What are the advantages and Disadvantages of using Circuit Breakers Instead of Fuses

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Circuit breaker is an automatic electrical  switch which cuts the power when there is surge in current.

Advantages of Circuit breaker

They are more reliable i.e. they are not replaced frequentlyEfficient and easy to safeguard electrical appliance

Disadvantage of Circuit breaker

They are less sensitive than fuses i.e. fuses are much faster than circuit breaker.

Answer:

The benefits are defined throughout the section described according to the particular context.

Explanation:

Just before it completes its function, users should substitute a fuse, although circuit breakers work through a trigger where you essentially restart or reboot. Fuses become composed of such a lump of material (metal) that can explode when enough electric current is passed through everything, disturbing another circuit successfully therefore stopping the equipment from hitting another power outage.

(2 causes) Habitat Loss Habitat Loss Invasive Species Invasive Species Pollution Pollution Population Growth Population Growth Climate Change Climate Change Overharvesting Overharvesting

Answers

Answer:

Pollution

Climate change

Explanation:

The destruction of the coral reef can be attributed to pollution and climate change.

The pollution of the atmosphere by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide causes the average temperature of the planet to increase, a phenomenon that is referred to as global warming. Global warming also causes an increase in the temperature of sea waters which can lead to the death of microscopic algae, causing coral bleaching.

An increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere also causes ocean acidification which, in turn, reduces the availability of materials required to form the calcium carbonate of the coral reef. In extreme cases, acidification of the ocean can cause the dissolution of the coral skeletons.

Laws of motion




Laws of motion





Answers

Answer:

Newton's laws of motion are three physical laws that, together, laid the foundation for classical mechanics. They describe the relationship between a body and the forces acting upon it, and its motion in response to those forces.

Explanation:

What are Newton's 1st 2nd and 3rd laws of motion?

In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

A 45 kg swimmer starting from rest can develop a maximum speed of 12 m/s over a distance of 20 m How much net force must be applied to do this ?

MUST SHOW WORK!

Answers


F = ma = mΔv/t = m(vf - vi)/t = mvf/t (since vi = 0)

⇒ a = vf/t


While accelerating from rest to vf, the distance d the swimmer traveled satisfies

d = (1/2)at2

Then

d = (1/2)(vf/t)t2 = vf t/2 ⇒

t = 2d/vf

F = ma = mvf/t = mvf / (2d/vf) = mvf2 / (2d)

F = [45 * 122 / (2 * 20)] N = 162 N

If you also want to know how long the swimmer took to accelerate to vf,

t = 2d/vf = (2 * 20 / 12) s = 3.33 s

Lina holownicza wytrzymuje działanie siły o wartości co najwyżej 1400 N (większa siła powoduje rozerwanie liny). Oblicz maksymalne przyspieszenie, jakie może osiągnąć samochód o masie 2000 kg holowany na takiej linie po poziomej jezdni, jeżeli wiadomo, że łączna wartość sił oporu ruchu tego samochodu w czasie holowania wynosi 400 N.

Answers

Odpowiedź:

0,5 m / s²

Wyjaśnienie:

Jeśli się uwzględni:

Masa samochodu (m) = 2000 kg

Wartość siły oporu podczas holowania = 400N

Lina o maksymalnej sile może wytrzymać = 1400N

Maksymalne przyspieszenie = siła / masa samochodu

Siła = maksymalna siła - siła oporu

Siła = 1400 N - 400 N = 1000 N.

Stąd maksymalne przyspieszenie;

1000 N / 2000 kg

= 0,5 m / s²
