Answer:

1.785 m/s

Explanation:

The momentum can be calculated using the expression below

M1 *V1 + M2 * V2 = (M1+M2) V3

M1= mass of van=9000 kg

M2= mass of car= 850kg

V3= velocity of entangled car

V1= Velocity of the van= 0

V2= velocity of the car= 5 m/ s

Substitute the values

(900×0) + (500×5)=( 900+500)× V3

2500=1400 V3

V3=2500/1400

V3= 1.785 m/s

Hence, velocity of the entangled cars after collision is 1.785 m/s

Lithium shares more properties with Sodium, because they have the same number of valence electrons (one). Choice 1 is correct. Hope this helps!

The x and y components of the velocity vector is 17.32 m/s and 10 m/s respectively.

<h3>What is the x - component of the velocity?</h3>

The x-component of the ball's velocity is the velocity of the ball in the horizontal direction or x-axis.

The velocity of the ball in x-direction is calculated as follows;

Vx = V cosθ

where;

  • Vx is the horizontal velocity of the ball
  • V is the speed of the ball
  • θ is the angle of inclination of the speed

Vx = (20 m/s) x (cos 30)

Vx = 17.32 m/s

The velocity of the ball in y-direction is calculated as follows;

Vy = V sinθ

where;

  • Vy is the vertical velocity of the ball
  • V is the speed of the ball
  • θ is the angle of inclination of the speed

Vy = 20 m/s x sin(30)

Vy = 10 m/s

Of elements N, O, Cl, Na, and Which two would likely have similar chemical properties and why
velikii [3]
<span>Oxygen and Nitrogen would be the most similar of the elements listed, because they are the closest in the periodic table. This isn't a very good reason for anything, but the two do have some similar properties. They are both non-metals, they are both highly electronegative, they are both diatmoic gasses in their natural states, they have a similar number of valence electrons, they are both generally oxidizing agents. Oxygen and Chlorine are also quite similar, but not quite as similar as Oxygen and Nitrogen.</span>
