8 0

Answer:

Electronegativity

Explanation:

Element: <em>An element is a substance which can not be split into simpler units by an ordinary chemical process</em>

Electronegativity: This is the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons. The electronegativity of an element increase across the period in the periodic table and decreases down the group. The most electronegative elements are the reactive non metals.

Examples of electronnegative element include, Oxygen, Chlorine, Fluorine, Nitrogen, sulphur etc.

During anomalous expansion of water ,heat transfer is limited to conduction and radiation only ,explain.​
aalyn [17]

Heat transfer is limited to conduction and radiation only in anomalous expansion of water simply because of the temperature at which the expansion occurs and density

<h3>What is anomalous expansion of water?</h3>

Anomalous expansion of water is a property of water in which water expands instead of contracting.

  • Anomalous expansion of water makes water less dense.
  • The major effect of this anomalous expansion it will still remain less dense and at the surface of water.
  • Interestingly, this expansion occurs when it is cooled from 4°C to 0°C.

Suppose that you are swimming in a river while a friend watches from the shore. In calm water, you swim at a speed of 1.25 m/s .
aliya0001 [1]

Answer: The observing friend will the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s.

Explanation:

  • Let <em>S</em> be the speed of the swimmer, given as 1.25 m/s
  • Let S_{0} be the speed of the river's current given as 1.00 m/s.

  • Note that this speed is the magnitude of the velocity which is a vector quantity.
  • The direction of the swimmer is upstream.

Hence the resultant velocity is given as, S_{R} = S — S 0S_{0}

S_{R} = 1.25 — 1

S_{R} = 0.25 m/s.

Therefore, the observing friend will see the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s due to resistance produced by the current of the river.

Explique ¿por que un objeto que tiene energía es capaz de realizar un trabajo?
Nana76 [90]
By striking another object that is free to move, the moving object can exert a force and cause the second object to shift its position. While the object is moving, it has the capacity for doing work. Energy means the ability to do work, so all moving things have energy by virtue of their motion.




Translation: Al golpear otro objeto que se puede mover libremente, el objeto en movimiento puede ejercer una fuerza y ​​hacer que el segundo objeto cambie de posición. Mientras el objeto se mueve, tiene la capacidad de realizar un trabajo. Energía significa la capacidad de realizar un trabajo, por lo que todas las cosas en movimiento tienen energía en virtud de su movimiento.

How to calculate moments with 3 separate weights of different amounts at different points?
Rina8888 [55]
I don't completely understand your drawing, although I can see that you certainly
did put a lot of effort into making it.  But calculating the moment is easy, and we
can get along without the drawing.

Each separate weight has a 'moment'.
The moment of each weight is: 

             (the weight of it) x (its distance from the pivot/fulcrum) .

That's all there is to a 'moment'.

The lever (or the see-saw) is balanced when (the sum of all the moments
on one side) is equal to (the sum of the moments on the other side).

That's why when you're on the see-saw with a little kid, the little kid has to sit
farther away from the pivot than you do.  The kid has less weight than you do,
so he needs more distance in order for his moment to be equal to yours.
