Cardinal directions refer to the four cardinal points; north, west, south and east. On the contrary, ordinal directions are points that are located in between the cardinal points.
Is a mineral's ability to resist being scratched, and is defined by its location on the numerical Mohs scale of mineral hardness by a designation of a number between 1 and 10. See the related link on Mohs hardness.
The Moh's scale is defined as: Talc - 1 Gypsum - 2 Calcite - 3 Fluorite - 4 Apatite - 5 Orthoclase feldspar - 6 Quartz - 7 Topaz - 8 Corondum - 9 Diamond - 10 There are some minerals and substances softer then talc, however there is nothing harder then diamond.
No. Hardness is measured on the Mohs Scale, named after German Friedrich Mohs. On this scale Talc (the softest) measures 1, while Diamond (the hardest) measures 10. Glass has a Mohs' scale hardness of around 5.5, so anything above that will have the ability to scratch glass. For example, quartz (Mohs 7), hardened steel (Mohs 8), corundum (rubies and sapphires, Mohs 9),or diamond (Mohs 10). The Mohs scale is purely an ordinal scale, expressing relative hardness in a simplistic way. Carborundum (Mohs 9) is twice as hard as Topaz (Mohs 8), but diamond (Mohs 10) is four times harder than arborundum.
They're called "ordinal directions": northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest.
they are cardinal directions.
They are cardinal directions.
The cardinal directions of a compass are N - E - S - W. (North, East, South, West)The directions between those cardinal points are the four intercardinal (or ordinal) directions:northeastnorthwestsoutheastsouthwest
North, south, east and west are all referred to as cardinal directions.
A difference is that with ordinal utility approaches, you cannot numerically measure the level of consumer satisfaction. With cardinal utility approaches, you can to an extent.
There are four cardinal directions -North -East -South -West The directions between the cardinal directions are called intermediate directions -The direction between North and East is called North-East -The direction between South and East is called South-East -The direction between South and West is called South-West -The direction between North and West is called North-West -RAD
"One" is a cardinal number, while "first" is an ordinal number.
When you unscramble the word dainilacr, you get the word cardinal. This is NOT the religious variety, but the numeric variety. On a compass, the ordinal directions are located between the cardinal ones.
Ordinal numbers suggest order such as first, second, third etc. Cardinal numbers are counting numbers. One, two, three, etc.
The cardinal directions are north, east, south, and west. Northwest, Northeast, Southwest, and so on are the primary intercardinal directions, or Ordinal directions. As you might have guessed, north by northeast (NNE), south by southwest (SSW), and so on, are the Secondary intercardinal (or Ordinal) directions.
North, south, east and west are all referred to as cardinal directions.
