Answer:

The right answer is inertia.

Explanation:

This name is given to the tendency of an object that is moving to remain that way, or if it is resting remain that way until an external force act upon it. Basically it means an object does what they are doing unless a force changes their speed or direction.

It's the natural tendency of things to keep going unless there's something trying to stop them.

It's usually called "inertia".

Don't get the idea from all of this that things stop unless there's something to keep them going.  The truth is exactly the opposite:  Things keep going unless there's something to make them stop.

A force of 35 N acts on a ball for 0.2 s. If the ball is initially at rest:
olya-2409 [2.1K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to momentum and momentum on a body. Both are equivalent values but can be found through different expressions. The impulse is the product of the Force for time while the momentum is the product between the mass and the velocity. The result of these operations yields equivalent units.

PART A ) The Impulse  can be calculcated as follows

L= F\Delta t

Where,

F = Force

\Delta t =Change in time

Replacing,

L = (35N)(0.2s)

L= 7N\cdot s

PART B) At the same time the momentum follows the conservation of momentum where:

Initial momentum= Final momentum

And the change in momentum is equal to the Impulse, then

\Delta p = L

And

\Delta p = p_f - p_i

There is not initial momentum then

\Delta p = p_f

L = p_f

p_f = 7N\cdot s = 7kg\cdot m/s

In the Hydrogen atom, the energy spacing between the is 4.07 x 101 J (Joules). When an is the frequency of the photons emitted?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The frequency of the photon is 3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy E=4.07\times10^{-19}\ J

We need to calculate the energy

Using relation of energy

E_{4}-E_{2}=\Delta E

Where, \Delta E =  energy spacing

4h\nu-2h\nu=4.07\times10^{-19}

\nu=\dfrac{4.07\times10^{-19}}{2h}

Put the value of h into the formula

\nu=\dfrac{4.07\times10^{-19}}{2\times6.63\times10^{-34}}

\nu=3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz

Hence, The frequency of the photon is 3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz.

Give examples of the one element from the alkaline earth metal group and one from the noble gases group. Include each element at
zhuklara [117]
Alkali metals: left column of your periodic table (not hydrogen, but anything below it). They have one valence electron, which they are happy to share in a reaction.

Halogens: second column from the right of your periodic table. They are one electron short of a full shell, so they are reactive in the opposite way that alkalis are--they want electrons.

Atomic number (number of protons) is the big number on the periodic table square. Hydrogen's is 1.

Atomic mass is a little number down below. For example, Hydrogen's is 1.008.

Neutrons are a tricky subject, because different isotopes of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons. You can't generally get this from the atomic mass, because the atomic mass is a weighted average of naturally occurring isotopes. Hydrogen can have 0,1, or 2 neutrons. To answer this, you'd have to choose a particular isotope from the table of isotopes (a completely different chart from the periodic table) which has a certain number of neutrons: n = weight - Z.

Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell. (The column of the table).
