As they are Alkali metals (group 1), they are extremely reactive in both air and water so must be stored in kerosine to stop them from reacting with the air or water.

14. Three identical light bulbs are connected in series, then are disconnected and arranged in parallel. For each of the scenari
Inessa [10]
In order to make things easier to describe and explain, let's call
the resistance of each bulb 'R', and the battery voltage 'V'.

a).  In series, the total resistance is 3R.
In parallel, the total resistance is R/3.
Changing from series to parallel, the total resistance of the circuit
decreases to 1/9 of its original value.

b).  In series, the total current is  V / (3R) .
In parallel, the total current is  3V / R .
Changing from series to parallel, the total current in the circuit
increases to 9 times its original value.

c).  In series, the power dissipated by the circuit is 

                                   (V) · V/3R  =  V² / 3R .

In parallel, the power dissipated by the circuit is

                                   (V) · 3V/R  =  3V² / R .

Changing from series to parallel, the power dissipated by
the circuit (also the power delivered by the battery) increases
to 9 times its original value.

Un cuerpo de 60 kg se encuentra a una distancia de 3.5 m del otro cuerpo, de manera que entre ellos se produce una fuerza de 6.5
aev [14]

Answer:

1989.6Kg

Explanation:

The computation of the mass of the other body is given below:

As we know that

F = G × m1 × m2 ÷ r²

Here the G would have the constant value i.e. 6.67 × 10^-11Nm² / kg².  

Now

6.5 × 10^-7N = 6.67 × 10^-11Nm² / kg² × 60Kg × m2 / (3.5m) ²

m2 = (F × r²) / (G × m1)

m2 = (6.5 × 10^-7N × (3.5m) ²) ÷ (6.67 × 10^-11Nm² / kg² × 60Kg)

= 1989.6Kg

A particle with charge q = +5e and mass m = 8.2×10-26 kg is injected horizontally with speed 1.1×106 m/s into the region between
loris [4]

Answer:

d = 1.27m

Explanation:

Given m = 8.2×10-26kg, v = 1.1×10⁶m/s, q = +5e = 5×1.6×10‐¹⁹ C.

E = 49kN/C = 49000N/C

The displacement is given by

d = 1/2× mv²/qE = 1/2 × 8.2×10-²⁶ × (1.1×10⁶)²/(5×1.6×10-¹⁹ ×49000) = 1.27m
