You can look at groups in the same group (the columns), since they tend to have similar properties. For example, the alkali metals in group one react aggressively with water and form white compounds.

Answer:

By checking the properties of elements with the same atomic number as the unstable elements.

Explanation:

For elements that are unstable but have known number of electrons or protons, their chemistry can be inferred from the periodic table by comparing them with elements with similar number of electrons or protons.

<em>Elements with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons are referred to as isotopes.</em> They usually have the similar properties except that they have different number of neutrons and hence, different atomic mass.

Since the number of proton determines the atomic number of elements, such element's properties can be inferred by checking the properties of elements with the same atomic number on the periodic table.

Force X has a magnitude of 1260 ​pounds, and Force Y has a magnitude of 1530 pounds. They act on a single point at an angle of 4
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Fe= 2579.68 P

α= 24.8°

Explanation:

Look at the attached graphic

we take the forces acting on the x-y plane and applied at the origin of coordinates

FX = 1260 P , horizontal (-x)

FY = 1530  P , forming 45° with positive x axis

x-y components FY

FYx= - 1530*cos(45)° = - 1081.87 P

FYy= -  1530*sin(45)° = - 1081.87 P

Calculation of the components of net force (Fn)

Fnx= FX + FYx

Fnx= -1260 P -1081.87 P

Fnx= -2341.87 P

Fny=FYy

Fny= -1081.87 P

Calculation of the components of equilibrant force (Fe)

the x-y components of the  equilibrant force are equal in magnitude but in the opposite direction to the net force components:

Fnx= -2341.87 P, then, Fex= +2341.87 P

Fny=  -1081.87 P P, then, Fex= +1081.87 P

Magnitude of the equilibrant (Fe)

F_{n} = \sqrt{(F_{nx})^{2} +(F_{ny})^{2}  }

F_{e} =\sqrt{(2341.87)^{2}+(1081.87)^{2}  }

Fe= 2579.68 P

Calculation of the direction of  equilibrant force (α)

\alpha =tan^{-1} (\frac{F_{ny} }{F_{nx} } )

\alpha =tan^{-1} (\frac{1081.87 }{2341.87} )

α= 24.8°

Krista is playing tennis at the park. When the tennis ball flies toward her, Krista hits the ball with her racket, which causes
xenn [34]

Answer:

B. When the racket hits the tennis ball with a force, the tennis ball applies an equal but opposite force to the racket.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's third law of motion every action has equal and opposite reaction. So, when the force is applied by the racket on the ball then the ball also applies an equal intensity of force in the opposite direction on the racket. It is just that the the force on the racket is absorbed by the player holding it.

A snail at position 3 cm moves to position 20 cm in 8 seconds.
natulia [17]

Answer: 17cm.

Explanation:

The equation you're using is:

Δd = df - di

Which means the change in position is equal to the final position minus the starting position. In this case that works out to 20cm - 3cm = 17cm. We're only interested in how much the snail moved, not how long it took to move, so even though they give a time it actually doesn't matter for this question.
