Why are two balls connected by a spring a good model for two atoms connected by a chemical bond? (a) If the two atoms get farther apart than the equilibrium interatomic distance, they attract each other. (b) Each spring represents a real microscopic coiled metal wire that connects two adjacent atoms. If the two atoms get closer together than the equilibrium interatomic distance, they repel each other. (c) The magnitude of the force one atom exerts on another is proportional to the stretch or compression of the bond between them

Answer:

all the three options are correct

Explanation:

if the two atoms get closer together than the equilibrium inter atomic distance, they repel each other.

If the two atoms get farther apart than the equilibrium inter atomic distance, they attract each other.

The magnitude of the force one atom exerts on another is proportional to the stretch or compression of the bond between them

Answer:

$3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J$

Explanation:

In order to convert the work function of cesium from electronvolts to Joules, we must use the following conversion factor:

$1 eV = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J$

In our problem, the work function of cesium is

$E=2.1 eV$

so, we can convert it into Joules by using the following proportion:

$1 eV : 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J = 2.1 eV : x\\x=\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J)(2.1 eV)}{1 eV}=3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J$

When atoms are split, they release energy. this concept applies to

balu736 [363]

This applies to nuclear reactions, specifically nuclear fission.

This huge release of energy has been used in atomic bombs and in the nuclear reactors that generate electricity.

Use the illustration to answer the question :)

Naily [24]

Answer:

This type of heat transfer occurs inside materials, typically solid materials. The heat from the fire is passed from molecule to molecule along the length of the material. The fire will generally follow the heat or sometimes the heat from conduction may cause a new fire to ignite elsewhere. The conduction is happening in the walls of the fireplace

Answer:

Explanation:

hydrostatic pressure, P=hρg,

where 'h' is the ht of the liq column and ρ is the density of the liquid and 'g' is the effective acceleration, but as far as hydroSTATICS is concerned, g stands for the acceleration due to gravity
