Answer:

12 (Magnesium- Mg)

Explanation:

Looking at the four numbers, we have:

Magnesium, Silicon, Sulfur, and Chlorine.

We can eliminate two of the answers immediately just by looking at the periodic table.

Sulfur and Chlorine are on the nonmetal side of the periodic table. So that's definitely not it. That leaves Magnesium and Silicon.

Silicon is a Metalloid. Magnesium is an Alkaline earth Metal.

Metaloids are elements that have a mix of both metal and nonmetal properties (luster, how it feels, etc.). Since it's a MIX and Magnesium is just straight METAL-

We can say Magnesium has the most metallic properties.

hope this helps!!

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Tangential speed=5.4 m/s

Radial acceleration= $88.6m/s^2$

Explanation:

We are given that

Angular speed=2.59 rev/s

We know that

1 revolution= $2\pi rad$

2.59 rev= $2\pi\times 2.59=5.18\pi=5.18\times 3.14=16.27 rad/s$

By using $\pi=3.14$

Angular velocity= $\omega=16.27rad/s$

Distance from axis=r=0.329 m

Tangential speed= $r\omega=16.27\times 0.329=5.4m/s$

Radial acceleration= $\frac{v^2}{r}$

Radial acceleration= $\frac{(5.4)^2}{0.329}=88.6m/s^2$

An example of acceleration

TEA [102]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton’s Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed) happens when a force acts on a mass (object). Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass.

Vector → A points due north and vector → B points due west. Both vectors have the same magnitude. Which of the following vectors

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

B - A

Explanation:

For the combination of 2 vector to due southwest, 1 vector must due south and the other vector due west. Since vector B is already due west, vector A should due south. As vector A is already due north, vector -A would due south. So the combination of B + (-A) or B - A should points southwest
