Answer:
B) Na has a lower first ionization energy than Ne.
Explanation:
The atomic number¹ for Na has a value of 11 while in the case of Ne this value is 10. That means that Sodium (Na) has a total number of 11 protons, 11 neutrons and 11 electrons (since it is electrically neutral²). For the case of Neon (Ne) it has 10 protons, 10 neutrons and 10 electrons.
As the atomic number increases, the atomic radius³ shrinks (the orbitals are closer to the nucleus) as a consequence of the electric force. For the case of sodium (Na) the electron in the outermost orbital will experience a lower electric force than the electron placed in the outermost orbital in the atom of Neon (Ne).
Although, the sodium’s atom has more protons and therefore electrons, these eleven electrons will be organized according with the electronic configuration⁴ in the different shells (orbitals) of probabilities of their positions around the atom.
The electronic configuration for Na is:
1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹
The electronic configuration for Ne is:
1s²2s²2p⁶
Since Na needs another orbital to placed its outermost electron, the atomic radius will have a greater value than Ne. The electric force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between two charged particles, as is established in Coulomb’s law:
(1)
Where q1 and q2 are the charges, is the proportionality constant and r is the distance between the two charges.
Hence, the electron in the outermost orbital of Ne is submitted to a greater electric force according with equation 1, the required energy to remove it (ionization energy⁵) will be greater than in the case of Na (<u>for that case will be the first ionization energy</u>).
¹Atomic number: The number of protons or electrons in an atom.
²Electricaly neutral: All the charges are balanced (same number of positive charges and negative charges).
³Atomic radius: Distance between the center of the nucleus and an electron placed in the outermost orbital for a specific atom.
⁴Electronic configuration: Show how the electrons of an atom will be arranged in different orbitals according with the fact that each orbital has a specific number of electrons that can be held.
⁵Ionization energy: Energy required to remove an electron from an atom.
Key values:
First ionization energy of Na: 495 kJ/mol
First ionization energy of Ne: 2080 kJ/mol
Atomic radius of Na: 2.27 Å
Atomic radius of Ne: 1.54 Å
Atomic number of Na: 11
Atomic number of Ne: 10
The concept of this question can be well understood by listing out the parameters given.
- The mass of the block = 51 g = 51 × 10⁻³ kg
- The distance of the block from the table = 30 cm
- Length of the spring = 30 cm
The purpose is to determine the spring constant.
Let us assume that the two blocks are Block A and Block B.
At point A on block A, the initial velocity on the block is zero
i.e. u = 0
We want to determine the time it requires for Block A to reach the table. The can be achieved by using the second equation of motion which can be expressed by using the formula.
From the above formula,
The distance (S) = 30 cm; we need to convert the unit to meter (m).
- Since 1 cm = 0.01 m
- Then, 30cm = 0.3 m
The acceleration (g) due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
∴
inputting the values into the equation above, we have;
By dividing both sides by 4.9, we have:
However, block B comes to an instantaneous rest on point C. This is achieved by the dropping of the block on the spring. During this process, the spring is compressed and it bounces back to oscillate in that manner. The required time needed to get to this point C is half the period, this will eventually lead to the bouncing back of the block with another half of the period, thereby completing a movement of one period.
By applying the equation of the time period of a simple harmonic motion.
where the relation between time (t) and period (T) is:
T = 2t
T = 2(0.247)
T = 0.494 seconds
By making the spring constant k the subject of the formula:
Therefore, we conclude that the spring constant as a result of instantaneous rest caused by the compression of the spring is 8.25 N/m.

Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
A point charge is placed between two charges
Q1 = 4 μC
Q2 = -1 μC
Distance between the two charges is 1m
We want to find the point when the electric field will be zero.
Electric field can be calculated using
E = kQ/r²
Let the point charge be at a distance x from the first charge Q1, then, it will be at 1 -x from the second charge.
Then, the magnitude of the electric at point x is zero.
E = kQ1 / r² + kQ2 / r²
0 = kQ1 / x² - kQ2 / (1-x)²
kQ1 / x² = kQ2 / (1-x)²
Divide through by k
Q1 / x² = Q2 / (1-x)²
4μ / x² = 1μ / (1 - x)²
Divide through by μ
4 / x² = 1 / (1-x)²
Cross multiply
4(1-x)² = x²
4(1-2x+x²) = x²
4 - 8x + 4x² = x²
4x² - 8x + 4 - x² = 0
3x² - 8x + 4 = 0
Check attachment for solution of quadratic equation
We found that,
x = 2m or x = ⅔m
So, the electric field will be zero if placed ⅔m from point charge A, OR ⅓m from point charge B.
