<span>Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time.
We can find acceleration a, by the following formula
a=v-u/t
where,
v is the final velocity (in this question v=8.0 m/s)
u is the initial velocity (since the hamster starts from rest, u=0)
t is the time taken (i,e 3.0 second)
now by applying the formula we have,
a = 8.0 - 0 / 3
= 8 / 3
= 2.65 m/s</span>²<span>
The acceleration is 2.65 meters per second squared</span>
Oxygen has an atomic number 8, because it has 8 protons and 8 electrons.
The first shell of an atom can hold up to 2 electrons but oxygen has 8 electrons, in that eight electrons 2 are in the first shell, so it has 6 more electrons left. The second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, oxygen has only 6 more electrons after the first shell is full, so it will have 6 electrons in the second shell
From this we know that oxygen has 2 shells so it is in period 2, and by counting from left to right, the sixth box in period 2 lies on group 16
Therefore Oxygen lies on group 16 and period 2

Answer:
The correct option is (B).
Explanation:
The Kepler's third law of motion gives the relationship between the orbital time period and the distance from the semi major axis such that,

It is mentioned that, an asteroid with an orbital period of 8 years. So,

So, an asteroid with an orbital period of 8 years lies at an average distance from the Sun equal to 4 astronomical units.
