Which is most likely true about electronegativity?

2 answers:

3 0

It tends to increase across a period.
This is visible in the first period, where Nitrogen is less electronegative than Oxygen which is less electronegative than Fluorine.

Answer:

It tends to increase across a period.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom in a bond pair to attract the shared pair of electron towards itself.

Low ionization energies as well as low electron affinities mean the atom has low effective nuclear charge, which results in the less attraction of the valence electrons by the atom and thus, low electronegativity.

Thus, across the period, electronegativity increases and down the group, it decreases.

Answer:

The velocity is $v_t = 0.02175 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the bullet is $m_b = 0.024 \ kg$

The initial speed of the bullet is $u_b = 1200 \ m/s$

The mass of the target is $m_t = 320 \ kg$

The initial velocity of target is $u_t = 0 \ m/s$

The final velocity of the bullet is is $v_b = 910 \ m/s$

Generally according to the law of momentum conservation we have that

$m_b * u_b + m_t * u_t = m_b * v_b + m_t * v_t$

=> $0.024 * 1200 + 320 * 0 = 0.024 * 910 + 320 * v_t$

=> $v_t = 0.02175 \ m/s$

A 5 kg object slows from +6 m/s to +2 m/s. What is the impulse?

Liula [17]

Impulse on the object: -20 kg m/s

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on an object is a vector quantity equal to the product between the force exerted on the object and the time interval during which the force is applied.

The impulse exerted on an object is also equal to its change in momentum. Mathematically,

$I=\Delta p = m(v-u)$

where:

m is the mass of the object

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

For the object in this problem, we have

m = 5 kg

u = +6 m/s

v = +2 m/s

Therefore, its impulse is:

$I=(5)(+2-(+6))=-20 kg m/s$

The negative sign means the direction of the impulse is opposite to the direction of motion of the object.

For an object that’s in static equilibrium which of the following statements must be true? Check all that apply.

Kobotan [32]

The statements that are held true with regards to the static equilibrium of bodies are:

The net torque acting on the object must equal zero

The net torque on the object does not have to be zero if the net force on the object is zero

Furthermore, when a body is in a state of static equilibrium, the summation of all forces, either vertically or horizontally, must be equal to zero.
