Is the appearance of a light wave changed as it is aborted?

Light waves are never 'aborted'.

They can be 'absorbed', and I think that's what you mean.
It's what happens when light hits something or goes into it,
and never comes out.

"Absorb" just means "soak up". When a light wave hits something and
gets soaked up in it, it's gone, and never comes out the other side.

The light wave certainly gets changed ... it no longer exists.

The object that absorbs it also gets changed. It soaks up the energy
in the light wave, and it has a little more internal energy (heat) than it
had before the light hit it.

Jill applies a force of 250 N to a machine. The machine applies a force of 25 N to an object. What is the mechanical advantage o

Vinvika [58]

Mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of output load to the input load. The mechanical advantage of the machine will be 0.1.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage?</h3>

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system,

It is used to obtain the efficiency of forces in levers and pulleys. It is an effective way of amplifying the force in simple machines like levers.

The theoretical mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of the force responsible for the useful work in the system to the applied force.

Given

applied force = 250 N

Output force = 25

Mechanical advantage = work output / work input

$\rm{Mechanical advantage}=\frac{F_O}{F_I}$

$\rm{Mechanical advantage}=\frac{25}{250}$

$\rm{Mechanical advantage}=0.1$

Hence the mechanical advantage of the machine will be 0.1

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).
