Answer: D. The elements have the same number of valence electrons

Explanation: The chemical reactivity of elements is governed by the valence electrons present in the element.

The elements present in the same group or vertical column have similar valence configurations and thus behave similarly in chemical reactions or have similar bonding properties.

For Example: Both fluorine and chlorine belong to same family or group and both have 7 electrons in their valence shell and thus accept single electron to attain noble gas configuration.

F:9:1s^22s^22p^5

F^-:10: 1s^22s^22p^6

Cl:17:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

Cl^-:18:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6

thus both would bond with a cation bearing a single positive charge.

A race car traveling at 10. meters per second accelerates at the rate of 1.5 meters per seconds while traveling a distance of 7,
Arturiano [62]

The final speed of the car is 2) 150 m/s

Explanation:

Since the motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance covered

For the car in this problem, we have

u = 10 m/s

a=1.5 m/s^2

s = 7,467 m

Solving for v, we find the final velocity (and speed) of the car:

v=\sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{10^2+2(1.5)(7,467)}=150 m/s

A disk between vertebrae in the spine is subjected to a shearing force of 600 N. Find its shear deformation, taking it to have t
Art [367]

Answer:

3.34×10^-6m

Explanation:

The shear modulus can also be regarded as the rigidity. It is the ratio of shear stress and shear strain

can be expressed as

shear stress/(shear strain)

= (F/A)/(Lo/ . Δx)

Stress=Force/Area

The sheear stress can be expressed below as

F Lo /(A *Δx)

Where A=area of the disk= πd^2/4

F=shearing force force= 600N

Δx= distance

S= shear modulus= 1 x 109 N/m2

Lo= Lenght of the cylinder= 0.700 cm=7×10^-2m

If we make Δx subject of the formula we have

Δx= FLo/(SA)

If we substitute the Area A we have

Δx= FLo/[S(πd^2/4]

Δx=4FLo/(πd^2 *S)

If we input the values we have

(4×600×0.7×10^-2)/10^9 × 3.14 ×(4×10^-2)^2

= 3.35×10^-6m

Therefore, its shear deformation is 3.35×10^-6m

A=area of the disk= πd^2/4

= [3.142×(4×10^-2)^2]/4

Select the correct answer
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Mary's average speed is 0.42 meters/second.

Explanation:

Mary's total travel was 250 meters and the elapsed time was 10 minutes, equivalent to 600 seconds.

d = displacement = 80 meters + 125 meters + 45 meters = 250 meters                  

t = time = 10 minutes . 60 seconds/minute = 600 seconds

We can obtain now the average speed:

s = average speed = displacement / time = 250 meters / 600 seconds ≅ 0.4167 ≅ 0.42

Preston tossed a red ball upward and it reaches a maximum height of 3.0. What is the final velocity when it returns to prestons
Leokris [45]
That will depend on the units of the 3.0. We need to know if it's 3 feet, 3 yards, 3 meters, or 3 miles. Each one will have a different answer.
