The metallic radius (r) of au is 144.2pm

A face-centered cubic unit cell structure is made up of atoms arranged in a cube with six additional whole atoms placed in the centre of each cube face and a fraction of an atom at each of the cube's four corners. Eight additional unit cells share the atoms at the cube's corner.

Atoms in an FCC crystal are in contact along the unit cell's diagonal.          4r = √2 a, where r is the radius of an atom and a is the edge length of a unit cell.

Putting the values in the above expression,we get

r = √2×408 / 4

r = \frac{1.414*408}{4}

r = \frac{576.9}{4}

r = 144.2 pm

Therefore, The metallic radius (r) of au is 144.2pm

How would you change the distance between two charged particles to increase the electric force between them by a factor of 16
Naily [24]

The electrostatic force between two charges is inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if you want to multiply the force by, say, ' Q ',
you need to multiply the distance by  ( 1 / √Q ) .

We want to multiply the force by 16, so we need to
multiply the distance by    ( 1 / √16 )  =  ( 1 / 4 ) .

The distance should be changed to  1/4  of what it is now.

A woman is standing in the ocean, and she notices that after a wavecrest passes, five more crests pass in a time of 50.0 s. Thed
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

(a) T = 10 s

(b) f = 0.1 Hz

(c) λ = 32 m

(d) v = 3.2 m/s

(e) Insufficient data

Explanation:

(a)

Time period is defined as the time interval required for one wave to pass. Therefore, the time period can be given as:

T = Period = Time Taken/No. of Waves

T = 50 s/5

<u>T = 10 s</u>

<u></u>

(b)

Frequency is the reciprocal of time period:

f = frequency = 1/T

f = 1/10 s

<u>f = 0.1 Hz</u>

<u></u>

(c)

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs:

<u>λ = Wavelength = 32 m</u>

<u></u>

(d)

Speed of wave is given by the following formula:

Speed = v = fλ

v = (0.1 Hz)(32 m)

v = 3.2 m/s

(e)

Amplitude cannot be found with given data.
