Metalloid

Explanation:

If an element is lustrous, brittle and a semi-conductor, it is best classified as a metalloid.

Metalloids shares attributes of metals and non-metals.

They are often described as semi-metals as they do not share the full properties that makes a metal a metal.
Metalloids are lustrous but not malleable like metals.
They do not conduct electricity but they do so on certain conditions.
Examples are silicon, germanium, boron, arsenic e.t.c
They are usually found in the middle of the periodic table.
They are not readily alloyed with metals.

If I want to accelerate a mass of 3 kg at 5 m/s2 then how much force should I apply?

Stolb23 [73]

<u>Answer:</u> The force that must be applied is 15 N.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Force exerted on the object is defined as the product of mass of the object and the acceleration of the object.

Mathematically,

$F=m\times a$

where,

F = force exerted = ?

m = mass of the object = 3 kg

a = acceleration of the object = $5m/s^2$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$F=3kg\times 5m/s^2=15N$

Hence, the force that must be applied is 15 N.
