Elements will gain or lose electrons to form a noble gas configuration. Atoms that meet the octet rule are stable because their valence electrons have a relatively low potential energy. Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

Answer:

Octet rule is the ability of an element to have 8 electrons in its outer shell. This makes the element very stable.

Noble gases are also called stable gases due to their configuration. Noble gases configuration is the ability of an electron to lose or gain electrons so that they can obtain the electronic configuration that noble gases have.

Explanation:

Octet rule in terms of noble-gas configurations and potential energy can be described as the situation which is referred to rule of thumb whereby electrons combine together so that they have eight electrons in their outermost or valence shells which similar to the electronic configuration of noble gases.

Noble gases when they follow the Octet rule have a very low potential energy.

A high-jump athlete leaves the ground, lifting her center of mass 1.8 m and crossing the bar with a horizontal velocity of 1.4 m
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The minimum speed when she leave the ground is 6.10 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal velocity = 1.4 m/s

Height = 1.8 m

We need to calculate the minimum speed must she leave the ground

Using conservation of energy

K.E+P.E=P.E+K.E

\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+0=mgh+\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2

\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=gh+\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{2}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=9.8\times1.8+\dfrac{(1.4)^2}{2}

\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=18.62

v_{1}=\sqrt{2\times18.62}

v_{1}=6.10\ m/s

Hence, The minimum speed when she leave the ground is 6.10 m/s.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

nodding of head ,yes- static equilibrium

nodding of head, no- dynamic equilibrium.

Explanation:

static equilibrium monitors head position when body is not moving .

dynamic equilibrium monitors the angular or rotational movements of the head when body moves.

Suppose a 1500 kg speed boat is traveling with a velocity of 30 m/s what is the speed boats Monument
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer: 45000kgm/s

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of speed boat = 1500 kg

Velocity of speedboat = 30 m/s

Speed boats Momentum = ?

The Speed boat momentum is the product of its mass and the velocity by which it moves. Momentum is a vector quantity and measured in kgm/s

i.e Momentum = mass x velocity

= 1500 kg x 30 m/s

= 45000kgm/s

Thus, the speed boats momentum is 45000kgm/s
