Sample Response: "No, steel and carbon would not form metallic bonds because metallic bonds only form between metals. Iron is a metal, but carbon is not."

Explanation:

Metallic bonds are the bonds that are formed between positively charged atoms in which mobile electrons are shared between the cations.

Also, metallic bonds are formed between metals.

Since, iron is a metal and carbon is a non-metals, therefore, they cannot form metallic bonds.

Thus, we can conclude that no, iron and carbon would not form metallic bonds.

How does a vacuum flask keep drinks hot? Explain in terms of conduction, convection and radiation.
Flura [38]
Vacum flask has inner layer of glass and outer body of plastic.the glass has a reflective metal layer..when a hot drink is poured into the flask it prevents conduction.tight lid stops the convection.when radiation tries to leave the hot drink the reflective layer of the glass reflects it back so no heat can escape.

a car travels at 15 m/s for 10 s. It then speeds up with a constant acceleration of 2.0 m/s? for 15 s. At the end of this time,
Firlakuza [10]

V = u + at where u is initial velocity (15 m/s), a is acceleration (2m/s^2) and t is time (15 seconds)

V = 15 + 2 X 15

V = 45 m/s

_________ are exchanged or shared during the formation of a chemical bond.
Thepotemich [5.8K]
<span>A chemical bond is a lasting attraction between atoms, ions or molecules that enables the formation of chemical compounds. The bond may result from the electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds; or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds.

A spy satellite uses a telescope with a 1.7-m-diameter mirror. It orbits the earth at a height of 180 km.
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: the minimum spacing that must be there between two objects on the earth's surface if they are to be resolved as distinct objects by this telescope 6.45 cm

Explanation:

Given that;

diameter of the mirror d = 1.7 m

height h = 180 km = 180 × 10³ m

wavelength λ = 500 nm = 5 × 10⁻⁹ m

Now Angular separation from the peak of the central maximum is expressed as;

sin∅= 1.22 λ / d

sin∅ = (1.22 × 5 × 10⁻⁹) / 1.7

 sin∅ = 3.588 × 10⁻⁷

we know that;

 sin∅  = object separation / distance from telescope

object separation =   sin∅ × distance from telescope

object separation = 3.588 × 10⁻⁷  × 180 × 10³

object separation =6.45 × 10⁻² m

then we convert to centimeter

object separation = 6.45 cm

Therefore the minimum spacing that must be there between two objects on the earth's surface if they are to be resolved as distinct objects by this telescope 6.45 cm

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Potential energy of spring = 24 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Spring constant = 85N/m

Extension, e = 0.75m

Mass = 25kg

To find the potential energy of a spring

Potential energy of a spring is given by the formula;

P.E = ½ke²

Substituting into the equation, we have

P.E = ½*85*0.75²

P.E = 42.5 * 0.5625

P.E = 23.91 ≈ 24 Joules

P.E = 24 Joules
