<h2>Answer: Francium </h2>

Let's start by explaining that electronegativity is a term coined by Linus Pauling and is determined by the <em>ability of an atom of a certain element to attract electrons when chemically combined with another atom. </em>

So, the more electronegative an element is, the more electrons it will attract.

It should be noted that this value can not be measured directly by experiments, but it can be determined indirectly by means of calculations from other atomic or molecular properties of the element. That is why the scale created by Pauling is an arbitrary scale, where the maximum value of electronegativity is 4, assigned to Fluorine (F) and the <u>lowest is 0.7, assigned to Francium (Fr).</u>

A vertical spring has a mass hanging from it, which is displaced from the equilibrium position and begins to oscillate. At what

Orlov [11]

Answer:

the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM

Explanation:

If a block is connected with a spring and there is no resistive force on the system

In this case the total energy of the system is always conserved and it will change from one form to another form

So here we will say that

Kinetic energy + Potential energy = Total Mechanical energy

As we can say that total energy is conserved so here we have least potential energy when the system has maximum kinetic energy

So here we also know that at mean position of the SHM the system has maximum speed and hence maximum kinetic energy.

So the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM

A positively charged objectwith a mass of 0.114 kg oscillates at the end of a spring, generating ELF (extremely low frequency) r

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

k = 167.33 N/m

Explanation:

The radio waves have a fixed relationship between the propagation speed (the speed of light in vacuum), the frequency and the wavelength, as follows:
v = c = λ*f

where c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s, λ = wavelength =

4.92*10⁷ m.

Solving for f, we get the frequency of the radio waves:

f = 6.1 Hz

Now, from the Hooke's law, we know that the mass attached at the end of the spring oscillates with an angular frequency defined by a fixed relationship between the spring constant k and the mass m, as follows:

$\omega_{o}^{2} =\frac{k}{m} (1)$

Now, we know that there exists a fixed relationship between the angular frequency and the frequency, as follows:

$\omega = 2*\pi *f (2)$

We also know that f in (2) is the same that we got for the radio waves, so replacing (2) in (1), and rearranging terms, we can solve for k, as follows:
$k = 4*\pi ^{2}*f^{2} *m = 4*\pi ^{2} * (6.1Hz)^{2} * 0.114 kg = 167.33 N/m$

What happens when a sound wave passes from oil into air? A. the sound wave slows down and bounces back B. the sound wave slows d

Jlenok [28]

Oil is optically denser than water. When sound/light goes from optically denser medium to optically rarer medium, their velocity increase and they moves away for normal.

<h3><u>Appropriate</u><u> </u><u>Answer</u><u>:</u></h3>

The sound wave speeds up and bends

$\Large{ \underline{ \boxed{ \pink{ \bf{Option \: (D)}}}}}$

As, In optics we learnt that light undergoes refraction when travels from medium of different densities. Similarly, Sound also follows the law of refraction.

It is due to the change of speed of water in different mediums, This makes it speed up or down depending upon the medium and their densities.

A car traveling at 27.4 m/s hits a bridge abutment. A passenger in the car, who has a mass of 65.0 kg, moves forward a distance

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

$F=43570.9N$

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration experimented by the passenger using the formula $v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad$ , taking the initial direction of movement as the positive direction and considering it comes to a rest:

$a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}=\frac{-v_i^2}{2d}$

Then we use Newton's 2nd Law to calculate the force the passenger of mass m experimented to have this acceleration:

$F=ma=\frac{-mv_i^2}{2d}$

Which for our values is:

$F=\frac{-(65kg)(27.4m/s)^2}{2(0.56m)}=43570.9N$
