The Answer To This Is A , The Most Reactive Of The Alkali Explode Due To Reactions To Water

Alkali metals are all highly reactive (D is false) so they would not be found in their uncombined form (A is true) ans at least some of them are highly water soluble ( C is false) (b is false) Check out the Periodic Table - you will see the Alkali metals.

A block of mass 10.0 kg is pulled to the right along a rough horizontal surface with a constant horizontal force of 20.0 N. The
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

the magnitude of acceleration will be 1.50m/s^2

Explanation:

To calculate your acceleration, you can use your formula that states that the net force on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration of the object. Fnet=ma

if you draw out this situation and label the forces you will have your vector towards the right with a magnitude of 20.0N and then your friction vector will be pointing to the left (in other words, in the negative direction) (opposing the direction of movement) with a magnitude of 5.00N, with the 10.0 kg box in the middle.

The net force will be calculated using F1+F2=Fnet where your F1=20.0N and F2= -5.00N (since it is towards the negative direction).

you will find that Fnet=15.0N

With that, plug in the values you know to calculate the acceleration of the block:

Fnet=ma

(15.0N)=(10.0kg)a    from her you can divide both sides by 10 to isolate a:

1.50=a  (and now make sure to label the units of your answer)

a=1.50m/s^2 (which is the typical unit for acceleration)

A hot-air balloon is rising upward with a constant speed of 2.85 m/s. When the balloon is 2.50 m above the ground, the balloonis
NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

You have to declare which way is plus -- up or down. I will use down.

vi = - 2.85       The balloon is going up. That is the minus direction.

a = 9.81

d =   2.50 meters  distance in this case is from the object to the ground.

d = vi*t + 1/2 a t^2

-2.50 = -2.85*t + 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2

-2.50 = -2.85*t + 4.905 * t^2           transfer the left to the right.

-4.905 t^2 + 2.85*t + 2.50 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to solve for t.

It turns out that t = 1.06

saveliy_v [14]
Hi there!

Two possible answers are air resistance and friction.

Friction is caused by the rubbing of the surface of the ground and the surface of the object. Although ice doesn't have much friction, it can still cause friction.

Air resistance is caused by friction between the air and the object. As the object moves along a surface, it collides into many air particles; thus, it slows down.

Hope this helps.
Have an awesome day! :)

In which of the following is radiation the only type of heat transfer?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

C.Vacuum

Explanation:

There are three methods of transfer of heat:

1) Conduction: conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact between the molecules of two objects (or two substances). The particles of the hotter object vibrate faster than the particles of the colder object, so energy is transferred by collisions of the molecules from the hotter object to the colder object.

2) Convection: convection is the transfer of heat by mass movement of molecules. This occurs in fluids (liquids or gases), when an external source of heat is applied to the fluid. As a result, the part of the fluid closer to the source gets warmer, so it becomes less dense and rises, while the colder part sinks and replaces the hotter part, forming a convective current. The process continues until the heat source is removed.

3) Radiation: radiation is the transfer of heat carried by electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves can travel in any medium and in a vacuum, so they are the only type of heat transfer that can occur in a vacuum (while conduction and convection cannot occur in a vacuum).

Is energy transformation only occurring at only point 3?
Paul [167]
No, energy transformation is occurring in every point of the motion.

In fact, the ball starts from point 1 with maximum kinetic energy and zero potential energy (taking the hand of the boy as reference level). The kinetic energy converts into gravitational potential energy as it goes higher: in point 2, part of the kinetic energy has converted into potential energy (because the velocity has decreased, while the height has increased), and then when the ball reaches point 3 all the kinetic energy has converted into potential energy (because now the velocity is zero, while the height is maximum). As the ball descends (point 4), the velocity starts to increase again, therefore the kinetic energy increases and the potential energy decreases (because the height is deacreasing now).
Summarizing, energy transformation is occuring in every point of the motion.
