Convert 3 hours 21 minutes to decimal hours.
Oxana [17]

Total hours is 3.35 hours

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

convert 3 hours 21 minutes to decimal hours

We know:

1 hour = 60 minutes

and

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 minute = 1 / 60 hours

So,

21 minutes = \frac{21}{60} hours

                  = 0.35 hours

Total hours would be = 3 hours + 0.35 hours

                                    = 3.35 hours

Therefore, total hours is 3.35 hours

Which of ONE of the following four elements has the most metallic properties?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

12 (Magnesium- Mg)

Explanation:

Looking at the four numbers, we have:

Magnesium, Silicon, Sulfur, and Chlorine.

We can eliminate two of the answers immediately just by looking at the periodic table.

Sulfur and Chlorine are on the nonmetal side of the periodic table. So that's <em>definitely</em> not it. That leaves Magnesium and Silicon.

Silicon is a Metalloid. Magnesium is an Alkaline earth Metal.

Metaloids are elements that have a mix of both<em> metal</em> and<em> nonmetal </em>properties (luster, how it feels, etc.). Since it's a MIX and Magnesium is just straight METAL-

We can say Magnesium has the most metallic properties.

how long does it take an acorn to hit the ground after dropping from the branch of a tree 12.5 m high?
Grace [21]
The right formula to use is: T^2= 2d/g
where T= time taken
d = 12.5m
g = is a constant and is equal to 9.8m/s
therefore, T^2 = 2*12.5/9.8 
Using the values above, the time taken for the acorn to reach the ground is 1.59 second
T = 1.59 S
