A moment causes a rotation about or axis. If the moment is to be taken about a point due to a force F, then in order for a moment to develop, the line of action cannot pass through that point...... the total moment was zero because the moment arm was zero as well
<span>Let F be the force of gravity, G be the gravitational constant, M be the mass of the earth, m your mass and r the radius of the earth, then:
F = G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2))
The above expression gives the force that you feel on the earth's surface, as it is today!
Let us now double the mass of the earth and decrease its diameter to half its original size.
This is the same as replacing M with 2M and r with r/2.
Now the gravitational force (F' ) on the new earth's surface is given by:
F' = G(2Mm / (4(pi)(r/2)^2)) = 2G(Mm / ((1/4)*4(pi)*r^2)) = 8G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2)) = 8F
So:
F' = 8F
This implies that the force that you would feel pulling you down (your weight) would increase by 800%!
You would be 8 times heavier on this "new" earth!</span>
The elements which have similar behavior are Barium, strontium and beryllium.

Answer: An iron atom emits particles when it is struck by light (by the photoelectric effect)
Explanation:
The first atomic model was the one proposed by Jhon Dalton, according to which it is postulated that:
"Matter is made up of indivisible, indestructible and extremely small particles called atoms."
That is, <u>the atom is a solid and indivisible mass.
</u>
However, the fenomenom by which an iron atom emits particles when it is struck by light (known as the photoelectric effect) can not be explaind by this<u> indivisible atom</u> model.
To understand it better:
The <u>photoelectric effect</u> consists of the emission of electrons (electric current) that occurs when light falls on a metal surface under certain conditions.
This is possible by considering light as a stream of photons, where each of them has energy. <u>This energy is be able to pull an electron out of the crystalline lattice of the metal and communicate, in addition, a kinetic energy. </u>This means the atom is not indivisible, but it is a composition of different particles.
In fact, currently it is known that each atom is composed of a nucleus and one or more electrons attached to the nucleus, which is composed of one or more protons and typically a similar number of neutrons.
<h2>Answer:</h2>
<em>Metals are both good heat conductors and good electrical conductors because of the </em><em>looseness of outer electrons in metal atoms</em>
_________________________
Unlike nonmetals that are insulators, most metals are both good heat conductors and good electrical conductors. This is because within a solid metal there is one or more outer electrons in each atom that become detached and can move freely through the solid metal, but <em>what about the other electrons?</em> Well, the
y remain bound to the positively charged nuclei, and bound within the material in almost fixed positions. On the other hand, insulators are material having few, very few or no electrons that are allowed to move freely through the material.
