What physical property of minerals describes how they will break along a plane of weakness in a crystal lattice?

Rom4ik [11]2 years ago

<span>The answer is cleavage Cleavage is the way minerals will break along a plane of weakness in a crystal lattice. These plane of relative weakness is formed due to various reasons like the locations of atoms in a crystal lattice so these locations form the smooth repeting surface which could be found out by studying its lattice or are sometimes visible to naked eye.</span>

viktelen [127]

Answer:

Explanation:

In case of gas , work done

W = ∫ p dV , p is pressure and dV is small change in volume

the limit of integration is from Vi to Vf .

= ∫ p dV

=  ∫ p₀V^{-\frac{6}{5}  dV

= p₀ V^{-\frac{6}{5} +1} / ( \frac{-6}{5} +1 )

=  - 5p₀ V^{-\frac{1}{5}

Taking limit from Vi  to Vf

W = - 5 p₀ ( V_f^\frac{-1}{5} - V_i^{\frac{-1}{5}  ) ltr- atm.

A tennis player standing 12.6m from the net hits the ball at 3.00 degrees above the horizontal. To clear the net, the ball must
mezya [45]
We actually don't need to know how far he/she is standing from the net, as we know that the ball reaches its maximum height (vertex) at the net. At the vertex, it's vertical velocity is 0, since it has stopped moving up and is about to come back down, and its displacement is 0.33m. So we use v² = u² + 2as (neat trick I discovered just then for typing the squared sign: hold down alt and type 0178 on ur numpad wtih numlock on!!!) ANYWAY....... We apply v² = u² + 2as in the y direction only. Ignore x direction. 
IN Y DIRECTION: v² = u² + 2as 0 = u² - 2gh u = √(2gh) (Sub in values at the very end) 
So that will be the velocity in the y direction only. But we're given the angle at which the ball is hit (3° to the horizontal). So to find the velocity (sum of the velocity in x and y direction on impact) we can use: sin 3° = opposite/hypotenuse = (velocity in y direction only) / (velocity) So rearranging, velocity = (velocity in y direction only) / sin 3° = √(2gh)/sin 3° = (√(2 x 9.8 x 0.33)) / sin 3° = 49 m/s at 3° to the horizontal (2 sig figs)

A 7.5 nC point charge and a - 2.9 nC point charge are 3.2 cm apart. What is the electric field strength at the midpoint between
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Net electric field, E_{net}=91406.24\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge 1, q_1=7.5\ nC=7.5\times 10^{-9}\ C

Charge 2, q_2=-2.9\ nC=-2.9\times 10^{-9}\ C

distance, d = 3.2 cm = 0.032 m

Electric field due to charge 1 is given by :

E_1=\dfrac{kq_1}{r^2}

E_1=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 7.5\times 10^{-9}}{(0.032)^2}

E_1=65917.96\ N/C

Electric field due to charge 2 is given by :

E_2=\dfrac{kq_2}{r^2}

E_2=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 2.9\times 10^{-9}}{(0.032)^2}

E_2=25488.28\ N/C

The point charges have opposite charge. So, the net electric field is given by the sum of electric field due to both charges as :

E_{net}=E_1+E_2

E_{net}=65917.96+25488.28

E_{net}=91406.24\ N/C

So, the electric field strength at the midpoint between the two charges is 91406.24 N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

An elementary particle of mass m completely absorbs a photon, after which its mass is 1.01m. (a) what was the energy of the inco
sdas [7]
A.) We use the famous equation proposed by Albert Einstein written below:

E = Δmc²
where
E is the energy of the photon
Δm is the mass defect, or the difference of the mass before and after the reaction
c is the speed of light equal to 3×10⁸ m/s

Substituting the value:

E = (1.01m - m)*(3×10⁸ m/s) = 0.01mc² = 3×10⁶ Joules

b) The actual energy may be even greater than 3×10⁶ Joules because some of the energy may have been dissipated. Not all of the energy will be absorbed by the photon. Some energy would be dissipated to the surroundings.
