Aluminum, and magnesium are metals. For metals, reactivity decreases as you go from left to right across the periodic table. Atomic number of Al is 13 and of Mg is 12. Hence the least reactive of these two is therefore aluminum.
Magnesium is "HIGHLY FLAMMABLE" carefully take a small piece and hit it with a torch. If its Magnesium it will "Caution, very, quickly burn.
Aluminum will not react to simple flame, it will only melt with enough direct heat.
Magnesium
==========
Atomic Number: 12
Atomic Symbol: Mg
Atomic Weight: 24.305
Electron Configuration: 2-8-2
Aluminum
========
Atomic Number: 13
Atomic Symbol: Al
Atomic Weight: 26.9815
Electron Configuration: 2-8-3
Hope this helps some. Any questions please feel free to ask. Thank you
1. When the object is waiting to be released, it is storing a lot of potential energy. When it is released, the potential energy that was once stored is converted into kinetic energy.
Explanation:
The attached figure shows data for the cart speed, distance and time.
For low fan speed,
Distance, d = 500 cm
Time, t = 7.4 s
Average velocity,

Acceleration,

For medium fan speed,
Distance, d = 500 cm
Time, t = 6.4 s
Average velocity,

Acceleration,

For high fan speed,
Distance, d = 500 cm
Time, t = 5.6 s
Average velocity,

Acceleration,

Hence, this is the required solution.
