The center of mass is

1 answer:

5 0

D is the best answer. In many physics problems we treat an extended object as if it were a point with the same mass located at the center of mass.

What property do the following elements have in common? Li, C, and F A) They are poor conductors of electricity. B) Each element

Aloiza [94]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given elements Li, C and F are all second period elements. So, when we move from left to right across a period then there occurs increase in number of valence electrons as there occurs increase in total number of electrons.

So, it means more electrons are added to the same energy level.

Thus, we can conclude that a property of valence electrons for each element is located in the same energy level is common in the given elements.

A ball is attached to a string of length 3 m to make a pendulum. The pendulum is placed at a location that is away from the Eart

Musya8 [376]

1) $0.61 m/s^2$

2) 13.9 s

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration that an object in free fall (acted upon the force of gravity only) would have.

It can be calculated using the equation:

$g=\frac{GM}{r^2}$ (1)

where

G is the gravitational constant

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ is the Earth's mass

r is the distance of the object from the Earth's center

The pendulum in the problem is at an altitude of 3 times the radius of the Earth (R), so its distance from the Earth's center is

$r=4R$

where

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ is the Earth's radius

Therefore, we can calculate the acceleration due to gravity at that height using eq.(1):

$g=\frac{GM}{(4R)^2}=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24})0.}{(4\cdot 6.37\cdot 10^6)^2}=0.61 m/s^2$

The period of a simple pendulum is the time the pendulum takes to complete one oscillation. It is given by the formula

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration due to gravity at the location of the pendulum

Note that the period of a pendulum does not depend on its mass.

For the pendulum in this problem, we have:

L = 3 m is its length

$g=0.61 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity (calculated in part 1)

Therefore, the period of the pendulum is:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{3}{0.61}}=13.9 s$

If you have an effusive personality, then it __________ of you. motor oil will __________ across the gravel if it spills out of

erica [24]

The first answer in the blank is pours out of you, the second answer in the space provided is diffuse. It is because a person who has an effusive personality will likely pour out his or her emotions while the motor oil will likely diffuse if this has been spilled out of the can.

satela [25.4K]

The Earth's orbit is the path through which the Earth travels around the sun. A complete orbit occurs every 365.256 days, where the Earth is traveling at 940 million km during a single orbit.
