4 0

Answer:

Elements in Group 14 could lose four, or gain four electrons to achieve a noble gas structure. In fact, if they are going to form ions, Group 14 elements form positive ions. Carbon and silicon form covalent bonds. Carbon's millions of organic compounds are all based on shared electrons in covalent bonds.

A net force of 20 N acting on a wooden block produces an
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From the second law of motion:

F = ma

we are given that the force applied on the block is 20N and the block accelerates at an acceleration of 4 m/s/s

So, F=  20N   and  a = 4 m/s/s

Replacing the variables in the equation:

20 = 4* m

m = 20 / 4

m = 5 kg

nevsk [136]
1. What is the skydiver's acceleration?

Initially, like any falling object, a skydiver's downward acceleration is 9.8 meters/seconds^2, or about 28-35 feet per second squared. This acceleration reduces over a few seconds and approaches zero as the skydiver reaches terminal velocity.
