Is there a relationship between speed and acceleration?
Is there a relationship between speed and acceleration? Speed is the distance covered in a unit of time while acceleration is the rate of change of speed. The unit of speed in the metric system is meters per second (m/s) while that of acceleration is meters per second squared (m/s2). Speed is a scalar quantity […]
Why does cooling rate affect crystal size?
Why does cooling rate affect crystal size? As the rate of cooling increases, crystal size decreases. This means that something which cools very quickly will have smaller crystal formations, and something which cools slowly will have larger crystal formations. This is easily seen in igneous rock, which may cool at variable rates. What factors affect […]
