1. Sodium metal reacts vigorously with water to produce hydrogen gas.

Chemical. A chemical property can only be observed by changing the chemical identity of a substance.

2. Steel is attracted to magnets.

Physical. A physical property is is an aspect of matter that can be observed or measured without changing its chemical composition.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

The speed will be "18km/s". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

According to the question, the values are:

Wavelength,

\lambda = 656.46 \ nm

\Delta \lambda = 0.04

c=3\times 10^8

As we know,

⇒  \frac{\Delta \lambda}{\lambda} =\frac{v}{c}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒  \frac{656.46}{0.04} =\frac{v}{3\times 10^8}

⇒         v=\frac{656.46}{0.04} (3\times 10^8)

⇒            =16411.5\times 3\times 10^8

⇒            =18280 \ m/s

or,

⇒            =18 \ km/s

Can you have zero displacement and nonzero average velocity? Zero displacement and nonzero velocity? Illustrate your answers on
Svetlanka [38]

a) Not possible

b) Yes, it's possible (see graph in attachment)

Explanation:

a)

The average velocity of a body is defined as the ratio between the displacement and the time elapsed:

v=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta x is the displacement

\Delta t is the time elapsed

In this problem, we want to have zero displacement and non-zero average velocity. From the equation above, we see that this is not possible. In fact, if the total displacement is zero,

\Delta x = 0

And therefore as a consequence,

v=0

which means that the average velocity is zero.

B)

Here we want to have zero displacement and non-zero velocity. In this case, it is possible: in fact, we are not talking  about average velocity, but we are talking about (instantaneous) velocity.

On a position-time graph, the instantaneous velocity is the slope of the graph. Look at the graph in attachment. We see that the position of the object first increases towards positive value, then it decreases (the object starts moving backward), then becomes negative, then it increases again until returning to the original position, x = 0.

In all of this, we notice that the total displacement of the object is zero:

\Delta x = 0

However, we notice that the instantaneous velocity of the object at the various instants is not zero, because the slope of the graph is not zero.

Properties such as luster conductivity and flexibility are used to describe what type of elements
pickupchik [31]
Answer: metals.

Justification:

There are 118  elements which you can find in the periodic table ordered by atomic number. Those elements my be classified into metals, non-metals and metalloids.

The metals are placed on the left side of the periodic table. The metals share the properties of luster, conductivity and flexibility.

The properties of non-metals (which are on the right side of the periodic table) are opposite to those of metals: opaque, low conductivity and brittle.

Metalloids have in between properties.

Copper, for example is a metal: it has luster, is flexible and is highly conductive of the electricity (and temperature).
