Hardness refers to the strength of the forces holding atoms together in a solid mineral. The Mohs scale will tell how easily a mineral can be scratched. It has a range from 1 to 10. Diamonds are a 10 on the Mohs scale. They are the hardest minerals in the world. The color of a mineral is often easy to identify. Many minerals are found in a range of colors. This is true for diamonds also. They can be yellow, brown, blue, green, orange, purple, black, pink, red, or colorless. Colored diamonds have impurities that cause them to change colors. Colorless diamonds, however, are very pure. Luster refers to how a mineral looks when it reflects light. A minerals luster could be metallic, dull, pearly, or adamantine. Diamonds have adamantine lusterā€“their brilliant sparkle. Streak refers to the color of the powder left by a mineral. Streak is often found after a mineral is scratched on a porcelain tile. The color of the streak left on the tile helps to identify the mineral. The streak of a diamond is white. Paragraph 5 of this passage mainly tells about

At a certain instant after jumping from the airplane a, a skydiver b is in the position shown and has reached a terminal (constant) speed vb = 52 m/s. the airplane has the same constant speed va = 52 m/s, and after a period of level flight is just beginning to follow the circular path shown of radius Ļa = 2330 m. (a) determine the velocity and acceleration of the airplane relative to the skydiver. (b) determine the time rate of change of the speed vr of the airplane and the radius of curvature Ļr of its path, both as observed by the nonrotating skydiver.
