Most reactive non-metals in order?

1 answer:

5 0

Nonmetals often share or gain electrons. The nonmetals in the periodic table increases as you move to the right and decreases as you go down. This is because, the smaller the atom, the reactive it gets due to less electron attached to the orbits of the atom. The reactivity of nonmetals is arranged in decreasing order.

 Nitrogen
Oxygen
Fluorine

Two Earth satellites, A and B, each of mass m, are to be launched into circular orbits about Earth's center. Satellite A is to o

Pachacha [2.7K]

(a) 0.448

The gravitational potential energy of a satellite in orbit is given by:

$U=-\frac{GMm}{r}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the satellite's mass

r is the distance of the satellite from the Earth's centre, which is sum of the Earth's radius (R) and the altitude of the satellite (h):

r = R + h

We can therefore write the ratio between the potentially energy of satellite B to that of satellite A as

$\frac{U_B}{U_A}=\frac{-\frac{GMm}{R+h_B}}{-\frac{GMm}{R+h_A}}=\frac{R+h_A}{R+h_B}$

and so, substituting:

$R=6370 km\\h_A = 5970 km\\h_B = 21200 km$

We find

$\frac{U_B}{U_A}=\frac{6370 km+5970 km}{6370 km+21200 km}=0.448$

(b) 0.448

The kinetic energy of a satellite in orbit around the Earth is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{r}$

So, the ratio between the two kinetic energies is

$\frac{K_B}{K_A}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_B}}{\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_A}}=\frac{R+h_A}{R+h_B}$

Which is exactly identical to the ratio of the potential energies. Therefore, this ratio is also equal to 0.448.

(c) B

The total energy of a satellite is given by the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy:

$E=U+K=-\frac{GMm}{R+h}+\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h}$

For satellite A, we have

$E_A=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_A}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg)(28.8 kg)}{6.37\cdot 10^6 m+5.97\cdot 10^6 m}=-4.65\cdot 10^8 J$

For satellite B, we have

$E_B=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_B}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg)(28.8 kg)}{6.37\cdot 10^6 m+21.2\cdot 10^6 m}=-2.08\cdot 10^8 J$

So, satellite B has the greater total energy (since the energy is negative).

(d) $-2.57\cdot 10^8 J$

The difference between the energy of the two satellites is:

$E_B-E_A=-2.08\cdot 10^8 J-(-4.65\cdot 10^8 J)=-2.57\cdot 10^8 J$

A solid object has a mass of 104 kg and a volume of 1,278 m3. What is its density?

MrMuchimi

The density is 81.4 g/m3. Before you start plugging numbers into the density formula (D=M/V), you should convert 104 kg to grams, which ends up being 104,000 grams. Then you can plug in the 104,000 grams and 1,278 m3 into the formula. When you divide the mass by the volume, you get a really long decimal, which you can round to 81.4 g/m3, or whatever place your teacher wants you to round to.

Name three ways that being obese puts a strain on your heart & can lead to serious health problems.

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Obesity changes in the structure and function of the heart. It increases your risk of heart disease. The more you weigh, the more blood you have flowing through your body. The heart has to work harder to pump the extra blood.

If the magnitude of the magnetic field is 6.50 mT at a distance of 12.8 cm from a long straight current carrying wire, what is t

Lunna [17]

Answer: magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 19.4 cm from the wire=4.29mT

Explanation:

According to Biot-Savart law, A magnetic field generated by a current carrying wire at a distance is represented as

B=μ₀I/ 2πr

B = magnetic field intensity 1000 mT =1T, 6.50mT = 6.50 X 10^-3T

μ₀ =permeability of free space 4π × 10−7 H/m

I = current intensity

r = radius, 100cm = 1m, 12.8 cm= 12.8 x 10^-2m

6.50 X 10^-3 = μ₀ x I/ 2 π X 12.8 X 10^-2

I =6.50 X 10 ^-3 X 2π X X 12.8 X 10^-2/ 4π × 10−7 H/m

I= 4160 A

when the magnetic field is at 19.4 cm from the wire

B=μ₀I/ 2πr

= 4π × 10−7 H/m x4160/ 2π x 19.4 x 10^-2

=0.004288

= 4.29x 10 ^-3T

= 4.29mT
