Answer;

poor conductors
low melting points
brittle

Explanation;

-Non-metals are elements that tend to gain electrons to form anions during chemical reactions. These are electronegative elements with high ionization energies.

-Physical Properties of nonmetals includes; Poor conductors of heat and electricity, dull, brittle solids, most are gases at room temperature, low density, low melting point, not malleable, and also they are not ductile.

The physical properties of non-metals are as below:

1) Poor conductors - generally non-metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity.
2)Low melting points - all metals have low melting and boiling points, with graphite being an exception.
3) Brittle - all nonmetals are brittle in nature.

shows a conical pendulum, in which the bob (the small object at the lower end of the cord) moves in a horizontal circle at const

Contact [7]

Answer:

a) $T=0.40 N$

b) $T=1.9 s$

Explanation:

Let's find the radius of the circumference first. We know that bob follows a circular path of circumference 0.94 m, it means that the perimeter is 0.94 m.

The perimeter of a circunference is:

$P=2\pi r=0.94$

$r=\frac{0.94}{2\pi}=0.15 m$

Now, we need to find the angle of the pendulum from vertical.

$tan(\alpha)=\frac{r}{L}=\frac{0.15}{0.90}=0.17$

$\alpha=9.44 ^{\circ}$

Let's apply Newton's second law to find the tension.

$\sum F=ma_{c}=m\omega^{2}r$

We use centripetal acceleration here, because we have a circular motion.

The vertical equation of motion will be:

$Tcos(\alpha)=mg$ (1)

The horizontal equation of motion will be:

$Tsin(\alpha)=m\omega^{2}r$ (2)

a) We can find T usinf the equation (1):

$T=\frac {mg}{cos(\alpha)}=\frac{0.04*9.81}{cos(9.44)}=0.40 N$

We can find the angular velocity (ω) from the equation (2):

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{Tsin(\alpha)}{mr}}=3.31 rad/s$

b) We know that the period is T=2π/ω, therefore:

$T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{3.31}=1.9 s$

I hope it helps you!

Nady [450]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes, this is a random error generating because of statistical constraint. We only have finite number of data points. As per this, if we plot our observation we will get a gaussian (inverse bell ) shaped curve with mean equal to central value.
