3 0

C) Elements combine in different ways to create many more than 92 compounds.

Explanation:

The number of elements we have relates to the compound formation in that, elements combine in different ways to create many more than 92.

Elements are distinct substances that cannot be split up into simpler substances. Such substances are only made up of one kind of atom.

Compounds are substances that are made up of two or more kinds of atoms joined together in a definite grouping.

  • Several millions of compounds are known because elements can combine in different ways.
  • The number of elements do not increase because new elements are discovered, it is because elements have several ways by they combine.

Compared to its weight on Earth, a 5kg object on the moon will weigh
shutvik [7]

Answer:

8.1 N/49 N=0.1653  which means 16.53% of the weight of the object on Earth.

Explanation:

On the Moon, where the gravitational constant is 1.62 \frac{m}{s^2}, the weight of the 5 kg object will be: weight_M=m*g_M = 5 kg * 1.62 \frac{m}{s^2} =8.1 N

Where the answer is in Newtons (N) since all quantities are given in the SI system.

On Earth, on the other hand, the weight of the object is:

weight_E=m*g_E= 5 kg* 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} = 49N

Therefore the object's weight on the Moon compared to that on Earth will be:

8.1N/49N=0.1653

That is, 16.53% of the weight the object has on Earth.

Which wave causes the medium to vibrate only in a direction not parallel to the waves motion?
Paha777 [63]

The correct answer to the question is : Transverse wave.

EXPLANATION :

Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand the longitudinal and transverse wave.

LONGITUDINAL WAVE : A longitudinal wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of compression and rarefaction.

For instance, sound wave.

TRANSVERSE WAVE : A transverse wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of crests and troughs.

For instance, the wave created in a pond when a stone is dropped into it.

Hence, the correct answer of this question is transverse wave.

Now she is out on a hike and comes to the left bank of a river. There is no bridge and the right bank is 10.0 mm away horizontal
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

a. 8.96 m/s b. 1.81 m

Explanation:

Here is the complete question.

a) A long jumper leaves the ground at 45° above the horizontal and lands 8.2 m away.

What is her "takeoff" speed  v 0 ?

b) Now she is out on a hike and comes to the left bank of a river. There is no bridge and the right bank is 10.0 m away horizontally and 2.5 m, vertically below.  

If she long jumps from the edge of the left bank at 45° with the speed calculated in part a), how long, or short, of the opposite bank will she land?

a. Since she lands 8.2 m away and leaves at an angle of 45 above the horizontal, this is a case of projectile motion. We calculate the takeoff speed v₀ from R = v₀²sin2θ/g. where R = range = 8.2 m.

So, v₀ = √gR/sin2θ = √9.8 × 8.2/sin(2×45) = √80.36/sin90 = √80.36 = 8.96 m/s.

b. We use R = v₀²sin2θ/g to calculate how long or short of the opposite bank she will land. With v₀ = 8.96 m/s and θ = 45

R = 8.96²sin(2 × 45)/9.8 = 80.2816/9.8 = 8.192 m.

So she land 8.192 m away from her bank. The distance away from the opposite bank she lands is 10 - 8.192 m = 1.808 m ≅ 1.81 m

Which of the following statements about price elasticity of demand is​ true?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

B. The elastic portion of a​ straight-line, downward-sloping demand curve corresponds to the segment above the midpoint.

Explanation:

Elasticity measures the sensitivity of one variable to another. Specifically it is a figure that indicates the percentage variation that a variable will experience in response to a variation of another one percent.

The elasticity of demand measures the reaction of demand when one of the factors that affects it varies.

<u>Elasticity - Price of demand.</u>

easure the sensitivity of the quantity demanded to price variations. It indicates the percentage variation that the quantity demanded of a good will experience if its price rises by 1 percent.

<u> Elastic Demand </u>

The demand quantity is relatively sensitive to price variations, so the total expenditure on the product decreases when the price rises, the price elasticity takes value greater than -∞ but less than -1
