Answer: Number of valence electrons determine how fast or easy for an atom to gain stability. Either by gaining electrons or by losing electrons.

Group one and seven elements react fast because they only have one electron to gain or lose.

Explanation:

Number of valence electrons tell us the number of electrons an atom will gain or lose in order to attain stability in electron configuration.

All the elements in a particular group will have the same number of valence electrons as follows:

Group one - 1 valence electron

Group two - 2 valence electrons

Group three - 3 valence electrons

Group four - 4 valence electrons

Group five - 3 valence electrons

Group six - 2 valence electrons

Group seven - 1 valence electron

Group eight - 0 valence electron

Some elements are more reactive than the others because of the electron affinity, oxidation state and electronegativity of the atoms

For instance, elements in group 7 are more reactive than others because of their oxidation state and they have very high electronegativity.

Also, group one elements are more reactive because they only have one electron to loose.

A player holds two baseballs a height h above the ground. He throws one ball vertically upward at speed v0 and the other vertica

Degger [83]

Answer:

a) v = √(v₀² + 2g h), b) Δt = 2 v₀ / g

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the mathematical expressions, where the directional towards at is considered positive.

The velocity of each ball is

ball 1. thrown upwards vo is positive

v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

in this case the height y is zero and the height i = h

v = √(v₀² + 2g h)

ball 2 thrown down, in this case vo is negative

v = √(v₀² + 2g h)

The times to get to the ground

ball 1

v = v₀ - g t₁

t₁ = $\frac{v_{o} - v }{ g}$

ball 2

v = -v₀ - g t₂

t₂ = - \frac{v_{o} + v }{ g}

From the previous part, we saw that the speeds of the two balls are the same when reaching the ground, so the time difference is

Δt = t₂ -t₁

Δt = $\frac{1}{g} \ [(v_{o} - v) - ( - v_{o} - v) ]$

Δt = 2 v₀ / g

Butoxors [25]

<h2>The frequency of driver is 700 Hz</h2>

Explanation:

The frequency of wave in a string is given by the relation

n = $\frac{p}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{T}{m} }$

here n is the frequency

p is the number of antinodes and l is the length of string .

T is the tension in string and m is the mass per unit length

Thus 420 = $\frac{3}{120} \sqrt{\frac{T}{2} }$ I

Now if there is 5 antinodes , the value of p = 5

Thus n = $\frac{5}{120} \sqrt{\frac{T}{2} }$ II

Dividing II by I , we have

n/420 = 5/3

or n = 5/3 x 420 = 700 Hz
