Answer:

- The limitation of the maximum number of electrons in a given energy level can be used to account for the periodic recurrence of properties as the number of electrons increases.

Explanation:

First - Scientists have not yet determined exactly why electrons do not collapse into the nucleus. FALSE: Scientists do know why electrons do not collapse. Since the beginins of quantum mechanics it's known that the energy at small scales is quantized, that means there only can be certain values meaning that the energy do not change continously. In the case of the electron, it can only have certain levels of energy, that means they do not radiate continously as the go arround the atom, instead it is only allowed to have a certain amount of energy in a given state therefore it can not lose energy continously collapsing into the nucleus.

Second - Electrons cannot be located between levels except when they are in the process of moving. FALSE: We can not say that a electron moves between energy levels, it only can exist in any of the levels, but never in between. Also, the electron in any of its possible energy lavels can not be located with complete certainty due to the uncertainty principle.

Fourth - Electrons have any random energy. FALSE:  as exposed above the electrons can only have certain cuantized energy levels acordinly to the rules of quantum physics

Fifth - Electrons can be found between energy levels. FALSE: Like said before we can not say that a electron exists between energy levels, it only can exist in any of the allowed levels, but never in between.

Thirth (correct one) :  - The limitation of the maximum number of electrons in a given energy level can be used to account for the periodic recurrence of properties as the number of electrons increases. TRUE: the maximum number of electrons allowed in a given energy level directly determines the tipe of bond an atom can made with another (this due to the number of electrons in the higest energy level), so for example the elements in the left of a given row of the periodic table tend to have ionic bonds, but in the other hand the elements on right side tend form more covalent bonds. And this characteristic directly correllate with diferent properties of the elements.

Why might the term red hot be misleading? (relating to stars)
Allushta [10]

red hot is hot, but other colours are even hotter. stars may be hotter than red hot.

there is also something calle the red shift.

A stoplight with weight 100 N is suspended at the midpoint of a cable strung between two posts 200 m apart. The attach points fo
Tasya [4]

There are 3 forces acting on the stoplight:

• its weight <em>W</em>, with magnitude <em>W</em> = 100 N, pointing directly downward

• two tension forces <em>T</em>₁ and <em>T</em>₂ with equal magnitude <em>T</em>₁ = <em>T</em>₂ = <em>T</em> = 1000 N, both making an angle of <em>θ</em> with the horizontal, but one points left and the other points right

The stoplight is in equilibrium, so by Newton's second law, the net vertical force acting on it is 0, such that

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>T</em>₁ sin(<em>θ</em>) + <em>T</em>₂ sin(180° - <em>θ</em>) - <em>W</em> = 0

We have sin(180° - <em>θ</em>) = sin(<em>θ</em>) for all <em>θ</em>, so the above reduces to

2<em>T</em> sin(<em>θ</em>) = <em>W</em>

2 (1000 N) sin(<em>θ</em>) = 100 N

sin(<em>θ</em>) = 0.05

<em>θ</em> ≈ 2.87°

If <em>y</em> is the vertical distance between the stoplight and the ground, then

tan(<em>θ</em>) = (15 m - <em>y</em>) / (100 m)

Solve for <em>y</em> :

tan(2.87°) = (15 m - <em>y</em>) / (100 m)

<em>y</em> = 15 m - (100 m) tan(2.87°)

<em>y</em> ≈ 9.99 m

A baseball pitcher throws a ball at 40 ms^-1. if the acceleration is approximately constant over a distance of 2 m, how large is
Reil [10]

We have the equation of motion v^2=u^2+2as, where v i the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and s is the displacement

Here final velocity, v = 40m/s

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Displacement s = 2 m

Substituting 40^2=0^2+2*a*2\\ \\ a=400m/s^2

So the baseball pitcher accelerates at 400m/s^2 to release a ball at 40 m/s.

Which will increase the kinetic energy of an object more, increasing its mass or increasing its speed? Why?
agasfer [191]
Increasing its velocity will add to the kinetic energy more as the formula for kinetic energy is 0.5*m*v^2. (The speed will be squared making it greater)

The level of mercury falls in a barometer<br>while taking it to a mountain.​
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

This is due to a relative decrease in atmospheric pressure in high places.

Explanation:

Given that atmospheric pressure decreases at the higher point or ground, this reduced atmospheric pressure, however, will be unable to contain the Mercury in the barometer tube.

Therefore, at the top of the mountain where the air pressure is low, the barometer reading ultimately goes down.

Hence, the level of mercury falls in a barometer while taking it to a mountain "due to a relative decrease in atmospheric pressure in high places."
