Metal atoms move freely. The metallic bond is the force of attraction between the free electrons and metal ions. Metallic bonds are strong so metals can keep a regular structure and usually have strong melting and boiling points.

How do you think speed affects car and driver safety?
blondinia [14]
An increase in average speed of 1 km/h typi- cally results in a 3% higher risk of a crash involving injury, with a 4–5% increase for crashes that result in fatalities. — Speed also contributes to the severity of the impact when a collision does occur. Hope this helps!

A (hypothetical) large slingshot is stretched 4.00 m to launch a 440 g projectile with speed sufficient to escape from Earth (11
RSB [31]

Answer:

(A) 3,449,600 N/m

(B) 62,720 poeple

Explanation:

extension of the sling shot (e) = 4 m

mass of projectile (m) = 440 g = 0.44 kg

speed of projectile (v) = 11.2 km/s = 11,200 m/s

average force a person can exert = 220 N

spring constant (k) = ?

(A) When all the elastic potential energy is converted to kinetic energy

o.5ke^{2} = 0.5 mv^{2}

rearranging the above equation

spring constant (K) = \frac{0.5mv^{2} }{0.5e^{2}}

spring constant (K) = \frac{0.5x0.44x11,200^{2} }{0.5x4^{2}}

spring constant (K) = \frac{27,596,800}{8}

spring constant (K) = 3,449,600 N/m

(B) force required to stretch the slingshot (F) = ke = 3,449,600 x 4 = 13,798,400 N

number of people required = required force / average force per person = 13,798,400 / 220 =62,720 poeple

Why does a pencil in a glass container filled with water appear to be bent?
Bogdan [553]

The phenomenon is called "refraction".  It's the process of
light waves bending toward a different direction when they
cross a boundary between different media ... in this case,
from water into air.

Your brain doesn't know that the light waves bent toward a
new direction when they came out of the water into the air,
so your brain locates the bottom half of the pencil just like it
ALWAYS does ... in the direction the light waves are coming FROM.
