Consider the third period of the periodic table. Which element has the smallest atomic radius?

1 answer:

3 0

According to periodic trends in the periodic table, the atomic radius decreases from left to right.

In period three, the element with the smallest atomic radius would be the element in the rightmost area. Protons increase as it goes to the right, which would mean they pull in electrons closer which decreases the size.

So in period 3, the element with the smallest atomic radius is Argon (Ar).

A 70.0-kg person throws a 0.0480-kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 33.5 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 55.0 kg, c

saw5 [17]

Answer:

The final velocity of the thrower is $\bf{3.88~m/s}$ and the final velocity of the catcher is $\bf{0.029~m/s}$ .

Explanation:

Given:

The mass of the thrower, $m_{t} = 70~Kg$ .

The mass of the catcher, $m_{c} = 55~Kg$ .

The mass of the ball, $m_{b} = 0.0480~Kg$ .

Initial velocity of the thrower, $v_{it} = 3.90~m/s$

Final velocity of the ball, $v_{fb} = 33.5~m/s$

Initial velocity of the catcher, $v_{ic} = 0~m/s$

Consider that the final velocity of the thrower is $v_{ft}$ . From the conservation of momentum,

$&& m_{t}v_{ft} + m_{b}v_{fb} = (m_{t} + m_{b})v_{it}\\&or,& v_{ft} = \dfrac{(m_{t} + m_{b})v_{it} - m_{b}v_{fb}}{m_{t}}\\&or,& v_{ft} = \dfrac{(70 + 0.0480)(3.90) - (0.0480)(33.5)}{70}\\&or,& v_{ft} = 3.88~m/s$

Consider that the final velocity of the catcher is $v_{fc}$ . From the conservation of momentum,

$&& (m_{c} + m_{b})v_{fc} = m_{b}v_{it}\\&or,& v_{fc} = \dfrac{m_{b}v_{it}}{(m_{c} + m_{b})}\\&or,& v_{fc} = \dfrac{(0.048)(33.5)}{(55.0 + 0.0480)}\\&or,& v_{fc} = 0.029~m/s$

Thus, the final velocity of thrower is $3.88~m/s$ and that for the catcher is $0.029~m/s$ .

If you pull up on a bucket with a tension force of 15 N and the bucket has a weight of 15 N, what is the net force acting on the

fredd [130]

Answer:

F = 0 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must perform a summation of forces in the direction of the vertical axis. Where the positive force is that of the tension of the upward force, while the force exerted by the weight is directed downward with a negative sign.

ΣF = 0

15 - 15 + F = 0

F = 0 [N]
