Answer:

the same magnitude but the opposite direction

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that there is always an equal and opposite reaction to every action. This means that the amount of force exerted upon an object is equal to the amount of force the object exerts but in an opposite direction.

This is the case in this scenario where a student sits at rest in a chair. The student is supplying the action force being exerted on the chair. According to the third law of Newton, the chair will exert the same size of force back in the student but in an opposite direction.

Hence, the force the chair exerts on the students compare with that of the student in the sense that they are the same magnitude (size) but the opposite directions.

Is kinetic energy conserved in an elastic collision.

baherus [9]

An elastic collision is a collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy in the system as a result of the collision. Both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved quantities in elastic collisions. ... They collide, bouncing off each other with no loss in speed.

How long does a player sit out of a game of handball for committing a second or third foul?

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Walking’ - If a handball player takes more than three steps without dribbling (bouncing the ball) or holds the ball for more than 3 seconds without bouncing it, shooting or passing, then that is deemed ‘walking' and possession is lost.

'Double dribble’ - Handball players cannot receive the ball and bounce it, then hold the ball, and bounce it again. This is termed ‘double dribble’ and is against the rules.

What tripositive ion has the electron configuration [kr] 4d3 ? what neutral atom has the electron configuration [kr] 5s 2 4d2 ?

tigry1 [53]

(a)

Electronic configuration is given as follows:

$[Kr]4d^{3}$

Since, this is the electronic configuration of ion with+3 that means 3 electrons are removed. On adding the 3 electrons, the electronic configuration of neutral atom can be obtained.

Thus, electronic configuration of neutral atom is $[Kr]4d^{5}5s^{1}$ .
