The periodic table is going from left to right. It also has a special name for its vertical columns. Each column is called a group. Each horizontal row is called a period.

On the periodic table, there are both groups and periods.

Periods go horizontal on the periodic table are there are 7 groups in all. Groups are very important because they tell you the number of electrons shells also called orbitals.

On the other hand, groups are the vertical columns on the period table. There are 18 groups and the elements in each group correspond to the number of valence electrons.

Which statements correctly describe the effect of distance in determining the gravitational force and the electrical force? Chec
tangare [24]
The following statements are correct for the electrical (Coulomb) and gravitational forces. The electrical force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. The gravitational force is also inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Gravitational forces will scale with the amount of mass whilst electrical forces scale with the amount of charge.

What is a similarity between ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds?
Semenov [28]
Ionic bond: it is also called "electrovalent bond". It is "a type of chemical bond that can often form between metal and non-metal ions through electrostatic attraction";

Covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding, "characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms, or between atoms and other covalent bonds";

Metallic bond: "the chemical bond, which is characteristic of metals, in which mobile valence electrons are shared among atoms in a usually stable crystalline".

The force of a moving object is called momentum. The momentum of an object is proportional to its weight and speed. The more mom
dexar [7]

The force that a moving object exerts on another object upon colliding with it is rather the change in momentum divided by the amount of time elapsed during the collision.

F = Δp/Δt

F = force, Δp = change in momentum, Δt = elapsed time

Usually we say momentum is proportional to mass instead of saying momentum is proportional to weight. But sure, for two objects on the same planet, greater weight implies greater mass. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity:

p = mv

p = momentum, m = mass, v = velocity

So we have two identical cars on the same planet with one car traveling 30mph faster than the other. Let's say they both collide with a tree, both coming to a rest, and the collisions take the same amount of time to happen. The faster car loses a greater amount of momentum over the same amount of time, therefore delivering a greater force.

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Explanation:

The full definition of a computer is

A computer is a machine(electronic device) that can be programmed to accept data (input), process it into useful information (output), and store it away (in a secondary storage device) for safekeeping or later reuse.

It is not necessary that a computer have network capacity, as far as it can process data into information, accept input and store results.

The correct option is A
