Hello~

Ice is harder than liquid water because<span> the molecules of ice are linked more tightly together than the molecules of liquid water.

Hope this helps! </span>

Which element has the strongest attraction for electrons

Alex787 [66]

If one atom is overwhelmingly more electronegative than the other atom, the electrons will not be shared and an ionic bond will result. The periodic table below shows the Pauling electronegativity scale. A value of 4.0 is assigned to FLORINE, the most electronegative element.

A distance of 0.002 m separates two objects of equal mass. If the gravitational force between them is

Alika [10]

Answer: 24.97 kg

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects of masses M1, and M2 respectively, and separated by a distance R, is:

F = G*(M1*M2)/R^2

Where G is the gravitational constant:

G = 6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)

In this case, we know that

R = 0.002m

F = 0.0104 N

and that M1 = M2 = M

And we want to find the value of M, then we can replace those values in the equation to get

0.0104 N = (6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2))*(M*M)/(0.002m)^2

(0.0104 N)*(0.002m)^2/(6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)) = M^2

623.69 kg^2 = M^2

√(623.69 kg^2) = M = 24.97 kg

This means that the mass of each object is 24.97 kg

When you irradiate a metal with light of wavelength 433 nm in an investigation of the photoelectric effect, you discover that a

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The right solution is:

(a) 2.87 eV

(b) 1.4375 eV

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength,

= 433 nm

Potential difference,

= 1.43 V

Now,

(a)

The energy of photon will be:

E = $\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{433\times 10^{-9}}$

= $4.59\times 10^{-19} \ J$

or,

= $\frac{4.59\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

= $2.87 \ eV$

(b)

As we know,

⇒ $Vq=\frac{hc}{\lambda}-\Phi_0$

By substituting the values, we get

⇒ $1.43\times 1.6\times 10^{19}=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{433\times 10^{-9}}-\Phi_0$

⇒ $\Phi_0=2.3\times 10^{-19} \ J$

or,

⇒ $=\frac{2.3\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

⇒ $=1.4375 \ eV$

A simple harmonic oscillator has amplitude 0.43 m and period 3.9 sec. What is the maximum acceleration?

rjkz [21]

Answer:

Maximum acceleration in the simple harmonic motion will be $0.854rad/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given amplitude of simple harmonic motion is A = 0.43 m

Time period of the oscillation is T = 3.9 sec

We have to find the maximum acceleration

For this we have to find the angular frequency

Angular frequency will be equal to $\omega =\frac{2\pi }{T}=\frac{2\times 3.14}{3.9}=1.61rad/sec$

Maximum acceleration is given by $a_{max}=\omega ^2A=1.61^2\times 0.43=0.854rad/sec^2$

So maximum acceleration in the simple harmonic motion will be $0.854rad/sec^2$
