Answer: electronegativity

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the property of an element to attract a shared pair of electron towards itself.  

The size of an atom decreases as we move across the period because the electrons get added to the same shell and the nuclear charge keeps on increasing. Thus the electrons get more tightly held by the nucleus.

As, the size of an element decreases, the valence electrons come near to the nucleus. So, the attraction between the nucleus and the shared pair of electrons increases and thus the electronegativity increases.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

s = vcos(x)t

50 = 25cos(45)t

cos(45)t = 2

t = 2/cos(45) = 2sqrt(2)

h = vsin(x)t + gt^2/2

h = 25sin(45)*2sqrt(2) - 4.9*8

h = 10.8 metres

A sinusoidal wave has period 0.20 s and wavelength 2.0 m. What is the wave speed?
il63 [147K]

Answer:10m/s

Explanation:

Wave speed ,v=for

Where π= wavelength=2m

Period =1/f f=frequency of wave

F=1/period

=1/0.2=5Hz

So speed of waves,v=5×2=10m/s

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The the analysis for the free fall part should be done under the constant acceleration.

Explanation:

In the given problem, the jumper is falling under the free fall. Since, no external force is acting on the body therefore, the fall will be under the action gravity only. also, the acceleration due to gravity is always constant.

Therefore, the the analysis for the free fall part should be done under the constant acceleration.

A 20-kilogram child is riding on a 10-kg sled over a frictionless icy surface at 8.0 meters per second. Calculate the kinetic en
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

K = 960 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a child = 20 kg

Mass of a sled = 10 kg

Speed of child on sled = 8 m/s

We need to find the kinetic energy of the sled with the child.

The total mass of child and the sled = 20 kg + 10 kg

= 30 kg

The formula for the kinetic energy of an object is given by :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 30\times (8)^2\\\\K=960\ J

Hence, the kinetic energy of the sled with the child is 960 J.
