1. Who first published the classification of the elements that is the basis of our periodic table today?
Gre4nikov [31]
That particular group of elements is reffered to as the "Noble Gasses"--a title that comes from the fact that these gases are very "secure" and don't mix well with other elements.

A flywheel with a diameter of 1.63 m is rotating at an angular speed of 79.9 rev/min. (a) What is the angular speed of the flywh
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

(a) 8.362 rad/sec

(b) 6.815 m/sec

(c) 9.446 rad/sec^2

(d) 396.22 revolution

Explanation:

We have given that diameter d = 1.63 m

So radius r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1.63}{2}=0.815m

Angular speed N = 79.9 rev/min

(a) We know that angular speed in radian per sec

\omega =\frac{2\pi N}{60}=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 79.9}{60}=8.362rad/sec

(b) We know that linear speed is given by

v=r\omega =0.815\times 8.362=6.815m/sec

(c) We have given final angular velocity \omega _f=675rev/min

And \omega _i=79.9rev/min

Time t = 63 sec

Angular acceleration is given by \alpha =\frac{\omega _f-\omega _i}{t}=\frac{675-79.9}{63}=9.446rad/sec^2

(d) Change in angle is given by

\Theta =\frac{1}{2}(\omega _i+\omega _f)t=\frac{1}{2}(675+79.9)\times 1.05=396.22rev

You want to slide a 0.39 kg book across a table. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is .21, what force is required to move t
uranmaximum [27]
Find the force that would be required in the absence of friction first, then calculate the force of friction and add them together.  This is done because the friction force is going to have to be compensated for.  We will need that much more force than we otherwise would to achieve the desired acceleration:

F_{NoFric}=ma=0.39kg \times0.18 \frac{m}{s^2}  =0.0702N

The friction force will be given by the normal force times the coefficient of friction.  Here the normal force is just its weight, mg

F_{Fric}=0.39kg \times 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} \times 0.21=0.803N

Now the total force required is:

0.0702N+0.803N=0.873N

A square is cut out of a copper sheet. Two straight scratches on the surface of the square intersect forming an angle theta. The
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

<em>a) increases</em>

Explanation:

Almost all substance or material undergoes expansion due to heating. Heat gives thermal energy to the molecules of a substance increasing their body temperature. The temperature of a substance is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of that substance. When the temperature of a substance increases, the molecules begin to agitate and try to move far from each other, leading to either a linear, area, or cubic expansion, or all three of them. Metals like copper expand very well on heating, and their expansion is relatively minute, but very observable. When the face of such a copper is scratched to give and angle, heating the copper uniformly will cause the copper to expand, leading to an increase in the angle formed.
