Gold, quartz, and talc are minerals. Copper and iron are types of ore. What is the difference between minerals and ores?

A mineral is a non-living, solid substance that can be extracted from the ground. Ore is a type of mineral made up of metals.

An ore is non-living and solid with little value unless it occurs in large amounts, in which case it is a mineral.

O A mineral is a valuable form of ore that can be extracted from the ground

O A mineral is a non-living, solid substance made of elements. Ore is a large deposit of one or more valuable minerals in the ground.

Answer 1

Answer:

A mineral is a valuable form of ore that can be extracted from the ground

Explanation:

Gold, quartz and talc are minerals because they are found in the earth in a valuable form of ore while ores are rocks that contain valuable concentrations of minerals.that can be mined.

An ORE in general term can be said to be a mineral deposit that contains enough Minerals that can be mined in commercial quantities while Minerals are valuable components of an Ore that can be mined ( naturally occurring ) in an ORE.

You have a large flashlight that takes 4 D-cell batteries, each with a voltage of 1.5 volts. If the current in the flashlight is 2.0 amps, what is the
resistance?
A 12 ohms
B 0.75 ohms
C 3.0 ohms
D.0.5 ohms
E. 6.0 ohms

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "C. 3.0 ohms". 

Explanation:

Ohm's law states the following:,

V = IR

where:

Voltage (V) = 1.5 volts × 4 batteries = 6.0 volts

Current (I) = 2.0 amps

Resistance (R) = ? ohms

To solve for Resistance (R) the equation must be rearranged this way:

 R = V / I

Then, the variables must be replaced with the known values:

 R = 6.0 volts / 2.0 amp

R = 3.0 ohms

The answer is  C. 3.0 ohms.
