<span>Tectonic plates move because they are floating on top of the liquid mantle. The mantle itself moves due to convection currents: hot rock rises, gives off some heat, then falls. This creates vast swirls of moving liquid rock under the crust of the earth, which jostles the plates of crust on top.

Electron configurations:
Ge: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p2 => 6 electrons in the outer shell
Br: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p5 => 7 electrons in the outer shell
Kr: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p6 => 8 electrons in the outer shell
The electron affinity or propension to attract electrons is given by the electronic configuration. Remember that the most stable configuration is that were the last shell is full, i.e. it has 8 electrons.
The closer an atom is to reach the 8 electrons in the outer shell the bigger the electron affinity.
Of the three elements, Br needs only 1 electron to have 8 electrons in the outer shell, so it has the biggest electron affinity (the least negative).
Ge: needs 2 electrons to have 8 electrons in the outer shell, so it has a smaller (more negative) electron affinity than Br.
Kr, which is a noble gas, has 8 electrons and is not willing to attract more electrons at all, the it has the lowest (more negative) electron affinity of all three to the extension that really the ion is so unstable that it does not make sense to talk about a number for the electron affinity of this atom.
Answer:
29.4 N/m
0.1
Explanation:
a) From the restoring Force we know that :
F_r = —k*x
the gravitational force :
F_g=mg
Where:
F_r is the restoring force .
F_g is the gravitational force
g is the acceleration of gravity
k is the constant force
xi , x2 are the displacement made by the two masses.
Givens:
<em>m1 = 1.29 kg</em>
<em>m2 = 0.3 kg </em>
<em>x1 = -0.75 m </em>
<em>x2 = -0.2 m </em>
<em>g = 9.8 m/s^2 </em>
Plugging known information to get :
F_r =F_g
-k*x1 + k*x2=m1*g-m2*g
k=29.4 N/m
b) To get the unloaded length 1:
l=x1-(F_1/k)
Givens:
m1 = 1.95kg , x1 = —0.75m
Plugging known infromation to get :
l= x1 — (F_1/k)
= 0.1
Answer: Please find the answer in the explanation
Explanation: According to the Newton 3rd law of motion which state that;
In every action, there will be equal and opposite reaction.
when the piston of a fountain pen with a nib is dipped into ink and and the air is released by pressing it, a force is applied which act on the molecules of the ink by pushing the molecules. When the force is released, there will be a reaction force by pulling the molecules of the ink into the pen. Thereby the ink fills in the pen.
