A) 5 N
B) 10 N
C) 50 N
D) 500 N

The answer will be 50N.
This is because the spring reads weight and weight is mass times acceleration due to gravity.5kg*10m/s2=50N

Explanation:

It is given that,

When mass is, m₁ = 1 kg

The reading on the spring scale, F = 10 N

If the mass is, m₂ = 5 kg

We need to find the reading on the spring scale. The force of gravity is acting on the box which is given by :  

F=mg

F=5\ kg\times 10\ m/s^2

F = 50 N

So, the reading on the spring scale is 50 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

What does it mean to say that some elements are reactive and form ions easily whereas others do not?
butalik [34]

Answer:

Some elements are reactive because the outermost energy levels of their atoms are only partially filled. Therefore, these atoms can easily gain or lose electrons to form ions. The atoms of nonreactive elements have filled outermost energy levels
