Compare and contrast properties of halogens in group 17 with the alkali metal family in group 1

Physics
1 answer:
N76 [4]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Halogens are compound of Group 17 of the periodic table. It's properties are:

  1. Down the group the melting and boiling point of the elements increases, so, Fluorine will have the lowest whereas, Astatine will have the highest.
  2. Down the group reactivity of halogens decreases, Fluorine reacts instantly whereas, iodine need to be heated strongly for reaction to take place.

Alkali metals are compound of Group 1 of the periodic table. It's properties include:

  1. Alkali metal have low melting point and down the group melting point decreases i.e. Lithium have the melting point of 180 degree Celsius whereas, Cesium have the melting point of 28 degree Celsius only.
  2. Down the group reactivity of these metal increases For example, Cesium reacts with Chlorine more vigorously as compare to reaction of Potassium with Chlorine.

Visually, how can you distinguish between an ac and dc power supply?
Temka [501]

Answer:

By the use of slow motion camera.

Explanation:

Visually, it is very hard to differentiate between an ac and dc power supply. But Since, we that In Ac supply polarity changes 100 times in a second ( because frequency of ac supply is 50 Hz generally). Whereas, Dc gives a steady power supply. So, in slow motion camera we can easily capture the flickering light tubes which won't happen in case of dc supply.

What are the differences between the practical and the ideal pendulum​
ankoles [38]

lf a heavy point mass is suspended by a weightless, inextensible and perfectly flexible string from a rigid support, then this arrangement is called simple pendulum.

In practice, however, these requirements cannot be fulfilled. So we use a practical pendulum.

A practical pendulum consists of a small metallic solid sphere suspended by a fine silk thread from a rigid support. This is the practical simple pendulum which is nearest to the ideal simple pendulum.

Note :

The metallic sphere is called the bob.

When the bob is displaced slightly to one side from its mean position and released, it oscillates about its mean position in a vertical plane.

Which of the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular
Mnenie [13.5K]

The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle is the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular  motion.

A. The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Motion of the planet around the star is mentioned to be uniform and around a circular path. Objects in uniform circular motion motion has constant angular speed but the velocity of the object will not remain constant. Since the planet is in circular motion the direction of velocity vector at a particular point is tangential to the circular path at that particular point.

Thus at every point, the direction of velocity vector changes and this means the velocity is never constant. The objects in uniform circular motion has centripetal acceleration which means that velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle.

An airplane flies horizontally at constant speed in a straight­line direction. Its state of motion is unchanging. In other words
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

sum of all forces on the air plane must be ZERO

So both forces must be of same magnitude

Explanation:

As we know that airplane is moving with uniform speed is horizontal plane is a straight line

so the motion of the air plane is uniform without any acceleration

So we will have

a = 0

acceleration must be zero

now by Newton's law

F_{net} = 0

F_1 + F_2 = 0

so sum of all forces on the air plane must be ZERO
