When the periodic table are the nonmetals located where are the mettalloids?

daser333 [38]3 years ago
5 0


Metalloids are the elements found along the stair-step line of the periodic table that distinguishes metals from non metals. The line is drawn from between Boron and Aluminum  to the border between Polonium and Astatine. The only exception to this is Aluminum which is classified under "other metals."

Metalloids have properties of both metals and non metals. Some of the metalloids e.g. Silicon and Germanium are semi-conductors. This means they can carry an electrical charge under special conditions and this property makes metalloids very useful in the computer industry.

A 62 pound box is on an incline. Determine the minimum force P that would result in the box starting to slide up the incline. (i
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

F > W * sin(α)

Explanation:

The force needed for the box to start sliding up depends on the incline (α).

The external forces acting on the box would be the weight, the normal reaction and the lifting force that is applied to make it slide up.

These forces can be decomposed on their normal and tangential (to the slide plane) components.

The weight will be split into

Wn = W * cos(α) (in normal direction)

Wt = W * sin(α) (in tangential direction)

The normal reaction will be alligned with the normal axis, and will be equal to -Wn

N = -W* cos(α) (in normal direction)

To mke the box slide up, a force must be applied, that is opposite to the tangential component of the weight and at least a little larger

F > |-W * sin(α)| (in tangential direction)

Llana [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The question relates to motion on a circular path .

Let the radius of the circular path be R .

The centripetal force for circular motion is provided by frictional force

frictional force is equal to μmg , where μ is coefficient of friction and mg is weight

Equating cenrtipetal force and frictionl force in the case of car A

mv² / R = μmg

R = v² /μg

= 26.8 x 26.8 / .335 x 9.8

= 218.77 m

In case of moton of car B

mv² / R = μmg

v²  = μRg

= .683  x 218.77x 9.8

= 1464.35

v = 38.26 m /s .
