ANSWER:
D) centripetal acceleration.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
When a body performs a uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every instant. This variation is experienced by the linear vector, due to a force called centripetal, directed towards the center of the circumference that gives rise to the centripetal acceleration.
Therefore, the answer is centripetal acceleration.
<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>
