Electrons are added into the outermost what in groups 1 & 2

Physics

S orbital.

Group 1 elements have a general configuration ns^{1}, where n represents the highest occupied Principal Energy Level. For example, Lithium has the valence configuration 2s^{1} whereas Cesium has 6s^{1}. Both of them belong to Group 1 of Periodic Table.

Group 2 elements have a general configuration of ns^{2}. For example, Magnesium has 3s^{2} as its outer shell configuration while Strontium has the same as 5s^{2}.

We see that in both the cases, the outermost S orbital is being filled.

A spring gun is made by compressing a spring in a tube and then latching the spring at the compressed position. A 4.97-g pellet
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

v  = 2.8898 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

This is a problem easily solve using energy conservation. As there are no non-conservative forces, we know that the energy is conserved.

When the spring is compressed downward, the spring has elastic potential energy. When the spring is relaxed, there is no elastic potential energy, but the pellet will have gained gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy. Lets see what are the terms for each of this.

<h3>Elastic potential energy</h3>

We know that a spring following Hooke's Law has a elastic potential energy:

E_{ep} = \frac{1}{2} k (\Delta x)^2

where \Delta x is the displacement from the relaxed length and k is the spring's constant.

To obtain the spring's constant, we know that Hooke's law states that the force made by the spring is :

\vec{F} = - k \Delta \vec{x}

as we need 9.12 N to compress 4.60 cm, this means:

k = \frac{9.12 \ N}{4.6 \ 10^{-2} \ m}

k = 198.26 \ \frac{ N}{m}

So, the elastic energy of the compressed spring is:

E_{ep} = \frac{1}{2} 198.26 \ \frac{ N}{m} (4.6 \ 10^{-2} \ m)^2

E_{ep} = 0.209759 \ Joules

And when the spring is relaxed, the elastic potential energy will be zero.

<h3>Gravitational potential energy</h3>

To see how much gravitational potential energy will the pellet win, we can use

\Delta E_{gp} = m g \Delta h

where m is the mass of the pellet, g is the acceleration due to gravity and \Delta h is the difference in height.

Taking all this together, the gravitational potential energy when the spring is relaxed will be:

\Delta E_{gp} = 4.97 \ 10^{-3} kg \ 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} 4.6 \ 10^{-2} m

\Delta E_{gp} = 0.00224 \ Joules

<h3>Kinetic Energy</h3>

We know that the kinetic energy for a mass m moving at speed v is:

E_k = \frac{1}{2} m v^2

so, for the pellet will be

E_k = \frac{1}{2} \ 4.97 \ 10^{-3} kg \ v^2

<h3>All together</h3>

By conservation of energy, we know:

E_{ep} = \Delta E_{gp} + E_k

0.209759 \ Joules = 0.00224 \ Joules + \frac{1}{2} \ 4.97 \ 10^{-3} kg \ v^2

So

\frac{1}{2} \ 4.97 \ 10^{-3} kg \ v^2  = 0.209759 \ Joules - 0.00224 \ Joules

\frac{1}{2} \ 4.97 \ 10^{-3} kg \ v^2  = 0.207519 \ Joules

v  = \sqrt{ \frac{ 0.207519 \ Joules}{ \frac{1}{2} \ 4.97 \ 10^{-3} kg } }

v  = 2.8898 \frac{m}{s}

Why is salt water a better conductor of electricity than river water?
Tamiku [17]

Answer: The conductivity of water depends on the concentration of dissolved ions in solution. ... This is because the Sodium Chloride salt dissociates into ions. Hence sea water is about a million times more conductive than fresh water.

1. A diver dives off of a raft - what happens to the diver? The raft? How does this relate to Newton's Third Law?  Action Force:
Natali [406]
The Action Force of this scenario is the pushing force of the Diver. The Reaction Force is the raft pushing back on the diver. 

The Third Law of Motion states that "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." Now when the diver dives off the raft, the raft is also pushing the same amount of force as the diver did as he dives off. The diver will then move forward and the raft on the other hand will move backwards.

The movement of the raft shows the opposite force. It will move backwards depending on how strong the diver will push off on the raft. And the amount of force he pushes on it, the raft will exert the same force so the stronger the force of the diver, the farther he will go because the raft will push him in that same direction as it goes backwards.
