Answer:

The correct answer will be "-\frac{6C_{6}}{x^{7}}". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The potential energy will be,

⇒  U(x)= -\frac{C_{6}}{x^6}

The expression of force will be,

⇒  F=-\frac{dU(x)}{dx}

⇒      =-(C_{6}(-6)x^{-7})

⇒      =-\frac{6C_{6}}{x^{7}}

Force seems to be appealing because the expression has been negative. It therefore means that the force or substance is acting laterally in on itself.

1A, 3B, and 7A are examples of group ___ on the periodic table.
AysviL [449]

Answer : The correct option is, Number

Explanation :

The periodic table is a type of table in which the element are systematically arranged on the basis of the atomic number.

The periodic table have the groups and periods. In the periodic table, there are 7 horizontal rows of elements are known as period and 18 vertical columns of elements are known as group.

Hence, 1A, 3B, and 7A are examples of group number on the periodic table.

A small 22 kilogram canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. What is the canoe's kinetic energy
VladimirAG [237]
Kinetic energy is simply 1/2 *mass* velocity^2 
so since you know both mass and velocity you should be able to calculate the kinetic energy.

A car's acceleration is 3m/s2. If the car started at rest and it only took 10s for the car to reach this acceleration, what is t
Grace [21]

Answer:

30m/s

Explanation:

From law of motion equation

Vf= Vi + at

Where Vf= final velocity

Vi= initial velocity=0(the car started at rest)

a= acceleration= 3m/s2

t= time= 10s

Then substitute into the equation to get the final velocity.

Vf= 0+(10×3)

Vf= 30m/s

Hence, the car's final velocity is 30m/s
