Answer:

Vertical

Explanation:

When the circle is horizontal, the tension in the string is equal to the centripetal force. When the circle is vertical, the tension is greater since it is equal to the centripetal force plus the weight of the stone. Therefore, the string is more likely to break when the circle is vertical

A student weighs a sample of an unkown metal and finds the mass to be 39.27g what is the metal?
xxTIMURxx [149]

The unknown metal with a mass of 39.27 g is potassium with the symbol K.

The mass of an atom is due to protons and neutrons present in it.

The protons and neutrons are together present in the nucleus of an atom.

The mass of any element is given by its mass number whose formula is

Mass Number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

In the given case 39 = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

The only element of the periodic table which satisfies the above equation is potassium because it has 19 protons and 20 neutrons.

Thus, the unknown metal with a mass of 39.27 g is potassium with the symbol K.

To know more about "mass number", refer to the following link:
