Answer: An atom valence electron shell determines its chemical reactivity.

Explanation:

An atom's valence electron shell determines its chemical reactivity. The amount of electrons in the outermost shell of an atom is its valence electron and it determines how reactive the atom is.

The reactivity of an atom depends on the number of electrons in its outermost shell. Atoms that has their outermost electrons full e.g noble gases like argon, krypton etc are unreactive because there is no room for the atom to donate or accept any electron.

Elements like sodium and chlorine are reactive because they possesses 1 and 7 electrons in their outermost shell respectively as such they can donate and accept electrons making them reactive elements.

If you drop a bouncing ball from a height of 40 centimeters, explain why it can only bounce back up to a height of less than 40
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Due to energy loss while collision ball will not reach to same height while if there is no energy loss then in that case ball will reach to same height

Explanation:

As we know that initially ball is held at height h = 40 cm

So here we can say that kinetic energy of the ball is zero and potential energy is given as

U = mgH

now when strike with the ground then its its fraction of kinetic energy is lost in form of other energies

So the ball will left rebound with smaller energy and hence it will reach to height less than the initial height

While if we assume that there is no energy loss during collision then in that case ball will reach to same height again

An object that is in free fall seems to be ______
bekas [8.4K]


An object that is in free fall seems to be (D) weightless.

Objects which are in free fall are said to be weightless because they only have the force of gravity acting upon them. Objects in free fall do not experience air resistance.

If the pressure of a substance is increased during a boiling process, will the temperature also increase, or will it remain cons
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

on increasing pressure, temperature will also increase.

Explanation:

Considering the ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Thus, at constant volume and number of moles, Pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of  the gas.

P ∝ T

Also,  

Also, using Gay-Lussac's law,

\frac {P_1}{T_1}=\frac {P_2}{T_2}

Thus, on increasing pressure, temperature will also increase.

An amateur player is about to throw a dart with an initial velocity of 15 meters/second onto a dartboard that is at a distance o
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

B. 0.16 m

Explanation:

The vertical distance by which the player will miss the target is equal to the vertical distance covered by the dart during its motion.

Since the dart is thrown horizontally, the initial vertical velocity is zero:

v_y = 0

While the horizontal velocity is

v_x = 15 m/s

The horizontal distance covered is

d_x = 2.7 m

Since the dart moves by uniform motion along the horizontal direction, the time it takes for covering this distance is

t=\frac{d_x}{v_x}=\frac{2.7 m}{15 m/s}=0.18 s

along the vertical direction, the motion is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant downward acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2, so the vertical distance covered is given by

d_y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^)(0.18 s)^2=0.16 m

1pt A cannon fires a 5-kg ball horizontally from a
Klio2033 [76]

Answer: Both cannonballs will hit the ground at the same time.

Explanation:

Suppose that a given object is on the air. The only force acting on the object (if we ignore air friction and such) will be the gravitational force.

then the acceleration equation is only on the vertical axis, and can be written as:

a(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)

Now, to get the vertical velocity equation, we need to integrate over time.

v(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)*t + v0

Where v0 is the initial velocity of the object in the vertical axis.

if the object is dropped (or it only has initial velocity on the horizontal axis) then v0 = 0m/s

and:

v(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)*t

Now, if two objects are initially at the same height (both cannonballs start 1 m above the ground)

And both objects have the same vertical velocity, we can conclude that both objects will hit the ground at the same time.

You can notice that the fact that one ball is fired horizontally and the other is only dropped does not affect this, because we only analyze the vertical problem, not the horizontal one. (This is something useful to remember, we can separate the vertical and horizontal movement in these type of problems)
