Answer:

Explanation:

Ionization energy is the amount of energy required to remove an electron from its valence shell.

Metals in general are electropositive i.e. they have a strong tendency to lose electrons and hence have the lowest ionization energy. Non-metals require an ionization energy which is greater than the metals. Column VII elements i.e. the halogens which have a valence electron configuration of ns²np⁵ are highly electronegative. Since they only require 1 electron to complete their octet they have a strong tendency to accept electrons.

In contrast, noble gases  which have a valence electron configuration of ns²np⁶ already have a complete octet. This is a stable configuration which requires a lot of energy for electron removal. Hence noble gases constitute a group of elements with the highest ionization energy and lowest reactivity.

Answer:

Reset

Explanation:

Digital methods are the methods that are uses methodological outlook to study societal change and cultural condition of online data. Reset is use to disguise data In digital methods. It is use to set again and conceal data by giving the data a different form. It restores the device to the original manufacture's settings.

How is acceleration calculated?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time

Explanation:

This is the correct answer because distance divided by time is the position. Speed multiplied by time is the distance. And acceleration is not just velocity, but the change in velocity over time.

a water-balloon launcher with mass 4 kg fires a 0.5 kg balloon with a velocity of 3 m/s to the east. what is the recoil velocity
kotykmax [81]
I think we will use the law of conservation of linear momentum;
M1V1 = M2V2
M1 =  4 kg (mass of the water balloon launcher)
V1=?
M2= 0.5 kg ( mass of the balloon)
V2 = 3 m/s

Therefore; 4 V1 = 0.5 × 3
                   4V1= 1.5
                     V1= 1.5/4
                          = 0.375 m/s

A man pushes a shopping cart across a level floor. What force resists the effort force? A) gravity B) friction C) the normal for
Kipish [7]

Answer:

B) Friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force that acts when an object is sliding along a surface. Microscopically, this force is due to the fact that the two surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they have "imperfections" that cause a force that opposes the motion of the object.

For an object sliding on a flat surface, the force of friction has magnitude:

F_f = \mu_k mg

where

\mu_k is the coefficient of kinetic friction

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

The direction of the force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion of the object.

In reality, friction also acts if the object is at rest and it is pushed by a force; in this case, we talk about static friction, and its magnitude is

F_f = \mu_s mg

where \mu_s is called coefficient of static friction, and it is generally larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction.
