Answer:

metallic bond

sea of delocalized electrons

Explanation:

Copper has Cu2+ atoms arranged in layers and held together by a sea of electrons in lattice form. The sea of electrons or de-localized electrons are provided by Cu. Each copper atom contributes 2 electrons to the sea for binding of Cu2+ atom layer.

The sea of electrons are highly mobile and require a very small potential difference across the atoms to push these electrons to form a current. The mobility, ease and freeness of these electrons allows copper to be a good electrical conductor

Answer:

a. metallic bond

b. the valence electrons from the s and p orbitals of the interacting metal atoms delocalize. That is to say, instead of orbiting their respective metal atoms, they form a “cloud” of electrons that surrounds the positively charged atomic nuclei of the interacting metal ions.

c. due to the presence of free electrons in its outer energy levels

What is the acceleration of a boy on a skateboard if the net force on the boy is 15 N? The total mass of the boy and the skatebo
Stels [109]
                                 Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

If the full 15N is pointing parallel to the ground,
then

                                   15 N  =  (58 kg) x (acceleration).

Divide each side
by  58 kg:                   Acceleration = 15 N / 58 kg

                                                         = (15 kg-m/s²) / (58 kg)

                                                         = (15/58) (kg-m/kg-s²)

                                                         =  0.26 m/s² .

A certain frictionless simple pendulum having a length L and mass M swings with period T. If both L and M are doubled, what is t
vampirchik [111]

The new period is D) √2 T

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Let's recall Elastic Potential Energy and Period of Simple Pendulum formula as follows:

\boxed{E_p = \frac{1}{2}k x^2}

where:

<em>Ep = elastic potential energy ( J )</em>

<em>k = spring constant ( N/m )</em>

<em>x = spring extension ( compression ) ( m )</em>

\texttt{ }

\boxed{T = 2\pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }}

where:

<em>T = period of simple pendulum ( s )</em>

<em>L = length of pendulum ( m )</em>

<em>g = gravitational acceleration ( m/s² )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

initial length of pendulum = L₁ = L

initial mass = M₁ = M

final length of pendulum = L₂ = 2L

final mass = M₂ = 2M

initial period = T₁ = T

<u>Asked:</u>

final period = T₂ = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

T_1 : T_2 = 2\pi \sqrt{ \frac{L_1}{g} }} : 2\pi \sqrt{ \frac{L_2}{g} }}

T_1 : T_2 = \sqrt{L_1} : \sqrt{L_2}

T : T_2 = \sqrt{L} : \sqrt{2L}

T : T_2 = 1 : \sqrt{2}

\boxed {T_2 = \sqrt{2}\ T}
