How do you know that potassium an alkali metal is highly reactive

Physics
1 answer:
Pavel [41]4 years ago
7 0

Potassium is in the most reactive group of elements, the alkali metals, but it's not the most reactive metal within the group. The alkali metals, Group 1A, are the most reactive metals because they have one valence or outer electron. They lose this electron very easily, forming ions with a charge of +1.

Explain why does the bowling ball decelerate as it travels along the lane
frutty [35]

The main cause of this is Friction. The more oil that is laid down, the less friction there is between the ball and the lane surface. The less friction, the harder it is for the bowler to send the ball in a curved path imparted by the spin that the bowler puts on the ball at the instant of release.

A coin slides over a frictionless plane and across an xy coordinate system from the origin to a point with xy coordinates (1.40
leva [86]

Answer:

The work done required on the coin during the displacement is 21.75 w.

Explanation:

Given that,

A coin slides over a friction-less plane i.e friction force = 0.

The co-ordinate of the given point is (1.40 m, 7.20 m).

The position vector of the given point is represented by  1.40 \hat i+7.20 \hat j.

The displacement of the coin is

\vec d=1.40 \hat i+7.20 \hat j

The force has magnitude 4.50 N and its makes an angle 128° with positive x axis.

Then x component of the force = 4.50 cos128°

The y component of the force = 4.50 sin128°

Then the position vector of the force is

\vec F=(4.50 cos 128^\circ)\hat i+(4.50 sin 128^\circ)\hat j

   =-2.77 \hat i+3.56 \hat j

We know that,

work done is a scalar product of force and displacement.

W=\vec F.\vec d

    =(-2.77 \hat i+3.56 \hat j).(1.40 \hat i+7.20 \hat j)

    =(-2.77×1.40+ 3.56×7.20) w

    =21.75 w

The work done required on the coin during the displacement is 21.75 w.
