A leaf falls from a tree. As you are watching the leaf fall, how can you tell that it has reached its terminal velocity?

You can tell that it has reached its terminal velocity when D) the leaf is falling with a constant velocity as you are watching the leaf fall. The terminal velocity is a point of condition when an object's speed equalize the force of gravity. The terminal velocity condition could occur if there is no acceleration to the object's speed<span>.</span>

1. Predict whether the energy required to remove an electron from magnesium and potassium would be more or less than that requir
Inga [223]

In both cases less energy is required

But comparetively Mg require more energy than K

Let's see the electron configuration of Both

  • [Mg]=1s²2s²2p⁶3s²=[Ne]3s²
  • [K]=1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹=[Ar]4s¹

K has only one valence electron so very less ionization enthalpy so less energy required

Mg has 2 so more IE hence more energy required

A single mass (m1 = 3.5 kg) hangs from a spring in a motionless elevator. The spring constant is k = 278 N/m. 1)What is the dist
artcher [175]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

0.126m

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to Hooke's law, the force (F) acting on a spring to cause an extension or compression (e) is given by;

F = k x e            -------------------(i)

Where;

k = the spring's constant.

From the question, the force acting on the spring is the weight(W) of the mass. i.e

F = W               -----------------------(ii)

<em>But;</em>

W = m x g;

where;

m = mass of the object

g = acceleration due to gravity [usually taken as 10m/s²]

<em>From equation (ii), it implies that;</em>

F = W = m x g

<em>Now substitute F = m x g into equation(i) as follows;</em>

F = k x e

m x g = k x e      ------------------(iii)

<em>From the question;</em>

m = m1 = 3.5kg

k = 278N/m

<em>Substitute these values into equation (iii) as follows;</em>

3.5 x 10 = 278 x e

35 = 278e

<em>Now solve for e;</em>

e = 35/278

e = 0.126m

Therefore, the distance the spring is stretched from its unstretched length (which is the same as the extension of the spring) is 0.126m
