VashaNatasha [74]3 years ago
3 0
<span><span>Metals are generally shiny, malleable, and hard. Metals are also good conductors of electricity. Examples of metals are Gold, Silver, Iron, Uranium, and Zinc. </span><span>Non-metals do not conduct heat or electricity very well. Non-metals are typically brittle and are not easily molded into shapes. Example non-metal elements are Hydrogen and Carbon. </span><span>Metalloids share characteristics of both metals and non-metals and are also called semimetals. Metalloids are typically semi-conductors, which means that they both insulate and conduct electricity. This semi-conducting property makes Metalloids very useful as a computer chip material. Examples of metalloid elements are Silicon and Boron. </span></span>

Where is oceanic crust being formed?
Sever21 [200]
Oceanic crust is being formed it is because of the tectonic plates. Tectonic plates work because of volcanic eruption every time it will erupt the tectonic plates underground will have more pressure on magma, then below there will be a volcano thats why their is a volcano in ocean. The heat rises up then it will open, thats what we call divergent bounderies then their will be earthquakes form. Then another plate opens up and the crust is going down, it will stop if the volcano stops erupting because there is more lava left in volcano then it will go underwater and thats why oceanic crust is being formed.

the gasoline in a car does 40000 j of work on a car and generates a constant force of 20 n. how far did the car go?
NikAS [45]

     Work  =  (force) x (distance)

     40,000 J  =  (20 N) x (distance)

     Distance  =  (40,000 J) / (20 N)

                    =    2,000 meters

                    =     2 kilometers.

(20 N is not a huge force when it's being used to move a car.
It's only about  4.5 pounds.)
