Earthquakes along the San Andreas fault in California.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- When the two plates collide with each other, earthquakes occur. The contact between them makes this earthquake possible. The contact forces are responsible for the earthquakes as there is contact between two plates.
- The gravitational force is a force that is responsible for elevated tides happening on the east coast or the Jupiter's moons to remain in orbit. But this is not a contact force as there is no contact between them
- Moreover, Without any contact, the magnetic force is a non-contact as it attracts the pins from a distance.
A bridge must be made of metal or concrete or other materials that are strong enough to withstand the forces of the traffic passing over it. I doubt that the material could do that.
If the substance is a metal foam, it would make a rather hard cushion.
If the substance is too soft, it would make a cushion.
If the substance has the right combination of softness and elasticity so that it returns to its original shape when you get up, it might be a good material for a cushion.
I think this because they are getting much older and weaker so they’re bones tend to break down easily
Answer:
2. The metal would lose one electrons and the non metal would gain one electrons
Explanation:
An atom of a certain element reacts with the atoms of other elements in order to fullfill its outermost shell (called valence shell).
We notice the following:
- The elements in Group 1 (which are metals) have only 1 electron in their valence shell
- The elements in Group 17 (which are non-metals) have 1 vacancy (lack of electron) in their valence shell
This means that in order for both an atom of group 1 and an atom of group 17 to fullfill the valence shell, they have to:
- The atom in group 1 has to give away its only electron of the valence shell
- The atom in group 17 has to gain one electron in order to fullfill the shell
Therefore, the correct option is
2. The metal would lose one electrons and the non metal would gain one electrons
