The atomic number of Na is 11
Thus it’s electronic configuration is 2,8,1
It’s valency is 1.

Thus it will loose an electron to form a stable compound with a completely filled outermost shell.

Na looses 1 electron

A rescue pilot drops a survival kit while her plane is flying at an ultitude of 2500m with a forward velocity of 95m. If the air
never [62]

Answer:

Approximately 2.1\; \rm km, assuming that g = -9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}.

Explanation:

Let t denote the time required for the package to reach the ground. Let h(\text{initial}) and h(\text{final}) denote the initial and final height of this package.

\displaystyle h(\text{final}) = \frac{1}{2}\, g\, t^2 + h(\text{initial}).

For this package:

  • Initial height: h(\text{initial}) = 2500\; \rm m.
  • Final height: h(\text{final}) = 0\; \rm m (the package would be on the ground.)

Solve for t, the time required for the package to reach the ground after being released.

\displaystyle t^{2} = \frac{2\, (h(\text{final}) - h(\text{initial}))}{g}.

\begin{aligned} t &= \sqrt{\frac{2\, (h(\text{final}) - h(\text{initial}))}{g} \\ &\approx \sqrt{\frac{2\times (0\; \rm m - 2500\; \rm m)}{(-9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2})}} \approx 22.588\; \rm s\end{aligned}.

Assume that the air resistance on this package is negligible. The horizontal ("forward") velocity of this package would be constant (supposedly at 95\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}.) From calculations above, the package would travel forward at that speed for about 22.588\; \rm s. That corresponds to approximately:95\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} \times 22.588\; \rm s \approx 2.1 \times 10^{3}\; \rm m = 2.1\; \rm km.

Hence, the package would land approximately 2.1\; \rm km in front of where the plane released the package.

Scientists discovered that the level of deuterium in comets forming in the Kuiper Belt is nearly identical to the level found in
malfutka [58]

Options:

  • The impact of Earth’s gravity on the decay rate of deuterium is the same as the impact of microgravity.  
  • Most of the water that forms the oceans of Earth arrived by way of impacts with Kuiper Belt comets.  
  • Most comets formed from deuterium-based water that was stripped away from early Earth by solar radiation.

Answer:

<u>Most of the water that forms the oceans of Earth arrived by way of impacts with Kuiper Belt comets.</u>

Explanation:

Note, a comet is a celestial body made of ice which releases gases when it orbits close to the Sun. Deuterium is a type of element which can be found in comets and in our oceans on earth. Deuterium is considered an isotope of hydrogen.

Hence, because of the similarities between the Deuterium and Hydrogen, some scientists promote the theory that most of the water that forms on oceans of the earth<em> likely</em> arrived by the impact with Kuiper Belt comets.

C. This is the idea of "black body radiation". Charcoal/carbon is a "perfect black body". Absorbs all radiation. There's a whole host of stuff about this in physics, including, I think, Planck's (Nobel Prize winner) black body radiation theory.
