3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Force on Q due to q₁

= k Q.q₁ / r² , r is distance between two.

X component

= k Q.q₁ / r²  x cos θ ,  θ is angle r makes with x - axis.

= k Q.q₁ / r²  x cos θ

r = a / sinθ

X component

= k Q.q₁ sin²θ . cosθ/ a²  

= k Q.q₁ / 2 a² x sin2θ . sinθ

for maximum value of it ,

sin2θ = 1  , θ = 45°

a / d = tan45

a = d .

Lana71 [14]
<span>To begin, the mouse walks from 5 to 12 cm, for a displacement of 7 cm. Next, it walks 8 cm in the opposite direction, for a total displacement of (7 + [-8]) or (-1) cm. This leaves the mouse on 4 cm, and then it walks from there to the 7cm location, for a displacement of 7-4 or +3 cm. Adding 3cm to -1cm gives a final displacement of +2cm.</span>

Among the alkali earth metals, the tendency to react with other substances
padilas [110]
Answer D
In alkali earth metals reacrivity increases from top to bottom (opposite of b)
This is because as you go down, the electron shells increase by 1 shell. The farther away a shell is from the nucleus, the higher its tendency to react.
D is true because the more reactive an alkali metal is, the more vigorous the reaction will be with water.
