Answer:
D. Metallic atoms have valence shells that are mostly empty, which
means these atoms are more likely to give up electrons and allow
them to move freely.
Explanation:
Metals usually contain very few electrons in their valence shells hence they easily give up these few valence electrons to yield metal cations.
In the metallic bond, metal cations are held together by electrostatic attraction between the metal ions and a sea of mobile electrons.
Since metals give up their electrons easily, it is very easy for them to participate in metallic bonding. They give up their electrons easily because their valence shells are mostly empty, metal valence shells usually contain only a few electrons.
Answer:
T = 6.0 N
Explanation:
given,
mass of the cord = 0.46 Kg
length of the supports = 7.2 m
time taken to travel = 0.74 s
tension in the chord = ?
using formula for tension calculation
v = 9.73 m/s
now, calculation of tension
T = 6.0 N
The tension in the cord is equal to 6.0 N.
Answer:
intensity.
Explanation:
when the light collected by the lens is focused into a small spot it tends to increase the intensity of the light.
as different path of light with different intensity combines from passing through the lens it tends to make the light path and intensity coherent and after being coherent there intensity increases.
Answer:
Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours
Explanation:
Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form
Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows
Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes
Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes
Therefore;
The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes
The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours
The differential rotation = 0.4 hours
Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.
First choice: the inability of current technology to capture
large amounts of the
Sun's energy
Well, it's true that large amounts of it get away ... our 'efficiency' at capturing it is still rather low. But the amount of free energy we're able to capture is still huge and significant, so this isn't really a major problem.
Second choice: the inability of current technology to store
captured solar
energy
No. We're pretty good at building batteries to store small amounts, or raising water to store large amounts. Storage could be better and cheaper than it is, but we can store huge amounts of captured solar energy right now, so this isn't a major problem either.
Third choice: inconsistencies in the availability of the resource
I think this is it. If we come to depend on solar energy, then we're
expectedly out of luck at night, and we may unexpectedly be out
of luck during long periods of overcast skies.
Fourth choice: lack of
demand for solar energy
If there is a lack of demand, it's purely a result of willful manipulation
of the market by those whose interests are hurt by solar energy.
