What does it mean to say that some elements are reactive and form ions easily whereas others do not?

Physics
1 answer:
butalik [34]2 years ago

Answer:

Some elements are reactive because the outermost energy levels of their atoms are only partially filled. Therefore, these atoms can easily gain or lose electrons to form ions. The atoms of nonreactive elements have filled outermost energy levels

The magnetic field direction and direction of induced current in a wire are related by the right hand grip rule. Since the magnetic field was upwards, the thumb points upwards and the fingers curl around it. When viewed from above, it is seen as a current flowing in the counter clockwise direction.

In February 1955, a paratrooper fell 370 m from an airplane without being able to open his chute but happened to land in snow, s
nevsk [136]

a) 0.94 m

The work done by the snow to decelerate the paratrooper is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the man:

W=\Delta K\\-F d = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - \frac{1}{2}mu^2

where:

F=1.1 \cdot 10^5 N is the force applied by the snow

d is the displacement of the man in the snow, so it is the depth of the snow that stopped him

m = 68 kg is the man's mass

v = 0 is the final speed of the man

u = 55 m/s is the initial speed of the man (when it touches the ground)

and where the negative sign in the work is due to the fact that the force exerted by the snow on the man (upward) is opposite to the displacement of the man (downward)

Solving the equation for d, we find:

d=\frac{1}{2F}mu^2 = \frac{(68 kg)(55 m/s)^2}{2(1.1\cdot 10^5 N)}=0.94 m

b) -3740 kg m/s

The magnitude of the impulse exerted by the snow on the man is equal to the variation of momentum of the man:

I=\Delta p = m \Delta v

where

m = 68 kg is the mass of the man

\Delta v = 0-55 m/s = -55 m/s is the change in velocity of the man

Substituting,

I=(68 kg)(-55 m/s)=-3740 kg m/s

An aluminum wire is 5.87 m long and has a diameter of 6.07 mm.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: 5.72 x 10-3Ω

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first we have to calculate the cross sectional area of the cable:

Diameter (D)=6.07 mm

Since: 1000mm = 1m

6.07mm/ 1000mm/m = 0.00607 meters

Area of a circle : π (d/2)^2

A = π (0.00607/2)^2= 0.000028937 m2

Resistance formula:

Resistance (R) = P(resistivity) L (length)÷A (cross sectional area )

Replacing with the values given:

R = (2.82x10-8 x 5.87) / 0.000028937

R = 5.72 x 10-3Ω

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

What is a tool that can be used to measure the size of a force
Travka [436]
The answer to this question would be: a spring scale.

The spring scale that you use to determine your body weight is actually a device that measures your body gravitational force. The force itself influenced by your body weight, that is why it can determine your body weight.
More weight means more force, more force will shrink the spring more.
