Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Metals are amazing, and they are all around us. You can probably easily identify them by their shiny surfaces and tinny sound when you tap them.

Generally, metals are mainly hard, shiny, and can be hammered into thin sheets. Also, another property of a metal is that, it is a good conductor of heat and even electricity because there valence (outer) electrons are delocalized. Some examples of chemical elements that are metals are iron, gold, sodium, silver, copper etc.

A point P1 is located by the vector A = (3.74)î + (1.64)ĵ and a point P2 is located by the vector B = (1.60)î + (3.66)ĵ. The vec
seropon [69]

Answer:

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

Explanation:

The vector that point from point P1 to point P2 its found simply by taking the vector at which point P2 its located and subtracting the vector at which point P1 its located:

\vec{C} = \vec{B} - \vec{A}

So:

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ , \ 3.66 \ ) - ( \ 3.74 \ , \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ - \ 3.74 \ , \ 3.66 \ - \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

Number 10 and an explaination would be fabulous. thanks!

Linear momentum has to be conserved. It was zero before the thread eas burned ... when nothing was moving ... so the momentum of the masses moving in opposite directions has to add up to zero. ... Momentum = mass times speed. ... In one direction, you have 5 kg times 1/5 m/s= 1 kg-m/s. ... We need 1 kg-m/s in the other direction. ... 7 kg times speed = 1 kg-m/s. ... Can you finish it from here ?

MAXImum [283]
Base on your question where a 14.8g of piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of -0.742C and is suspended in equilibrium above the center of a large, horizontal sheet of plastic so the ask of the problem is to calculate  the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet. The answer would be 21.96

Which of the following is a characteristic of electromagnetic waves?
fomenos

Answer:

They have a dual wave-particle nature.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of periodic oscillations of electric and magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave (in fact, they are also classified as transverse waves).

Electromagnetic waves have a wave nature, however they also have particle nature - in fact, it has been proved in some experiment (e.g. photoelectric effect) that in some conditions they act as packets of particles - called photons. Therefore, the option

They have a dual wave-particle nature.

is correct.

Other options are wrong because:

They are all invisible.  --> False because visible light (which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, so they are electromagnetic waves) is visible

They can only travel without a medium.  --> False because they can also travel in a vacuum

They are slower than sound waves. --> False because they travel much faster (they travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s, while sound travels at 343 m/s in air, for instance)
