Which of ONE of the following four elements has the most metallic properties?

Physics

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!!

The gravitational force between two objects will be greatest in which of the following situations?

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational law states that, the force of attraction or repulsion between two masses is directly proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

So,

Let the masses be M1 and M2,

F ∝ M1 × M2

Let the distance apart be R

F ∝ 1 / R²

Combining the two equation

F ∝ M1•M2 / R²

G is the constant of proportional and it is called gravitational constant

F = G•M1•M2 / R²

So, to increase the gravitational force, the masses to the object must be increased and the distance apart must be reduced.

So, option c is correct

C. Both objects have large masses and are close together.

A 10-kg cart moving at 5 m/s collides with a 5-kg cart at rest and causes it to move 10 m/s. Which principle explains the result

Virty [35]

Hello!

A 10-kg cart moving at 5 m/s collides with a 5-kg cart at rest and causes it to move 10 m/s. Which principle explains the result? A) law of differential mass B) law of conservation of momentum C) law of unequal forces D) law of accelerated collision

We have the following data¹:

ΔP (momentum before impact) = ?

mA (mass) = 10 kg

vA (velocity) = 5 m/s

mB (mass) = 5 kg

vB (velocity) = 0 m/s

Solving:

ΔP = mA*vA + mB*vB

ΔP = 10 kg*5 m/s + 5 kg*0 m/s

ΔP = 50 kg*m/s + 0 kg*m/s

Δp = 50 kg*m/s ← (momentum before impact)

We have the following data²:

ΔP (momentum after impact) = ?

mA (mass) = 10 kg

vA (velocity) = 0 m/s

mB (mass) = 5 kg

vB (velocity) = 10 m/s

Solving:

Δp = mA*vA + mB*vB

Δp = 10 kg*0 m/s + 5 kg*10 m/s

Δp = 0 kg*m/s + 50 kg*m/s

Δp = 50 kg*m/s ← (momentum after impact)

*** Then, which principle explains the result ?

Law of conservation of momentum, since the total momentum of body A and B before impact is equal to the total momentum of body A and B after impact.

Note: Bodies of different masses and velocities may have the same kinetic energy, if proportionality between the units is maintained it can occur that they have the same kinetic energy.

Answer:

B) law of conservation of momentum

To understand the terms in Faraday's law and to be able to identify the magnitude and direction of induced emf. Faraday's law st

wlad13 [49]

Answer: $V_{\epsilon}\propto \frac{d\phi_{B}}{dt}$

Explanation:

A direct proportionality means a linear relationship between two variables and rate of change means an application of derivatives. Hence, the mathematical model is:

$V_{\epsilon}\propto \frac{d\phi_{B}}{dt}$

A Jeep accelerated at 2.2 m/s2 until after 18 seconds its displacement was 660 meters. Assuming the Jeep traveled in a straight

pogonyaev

Ok so we know:
The time (t) is 18seconds
The acceleration (a) is 2.2m/s2
The displacement (r) is 660

Using the equation
$r = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}$
With 'u' being the initial velocity we want, we get:
$660 = 18u + 356.4$
So:
$18u = 303.6$
So:
$u = 16.8666$
So the original/initial velocity was 16.8666 or 16.87 m/s

Hope this helped
