The physical and chemical properties of metal can differ between the elements but if we try and generalize.

Physical properties are that they are hard, dense, shiny, malleable (can be bent), ductile (can be pulled into wires), a good conductor of heat and have high melting points meaning that they are solid at room temperature

Their chemical properties include being good electrical conductors, they make metallic bonds (ionic bonds with non-metals) and their atoms are arranged in a lattice. They release hydrogen when reacted with acids and are usually cations (positive ions).

horsena [70]

In some early mornings , dew drops can be found on grass or a car parked outside, but not on other materials such as the sidewalk because the night -time temperature on grass and the car went below the dew point, but the temperature of the concrete did not drop enough to reach the dew point level

Dew can be formed on any object when the temperature of the object drop. When this happen, the object will be cool which will eventually cool the surrounding air around the object.

Dew drops is as a result of condensation in the air. When the cool air causes the air vapor to convert to liquid. The dew will form when the temperature of the object balances with the dew point in the surrounding environment.

Name the property illustrated be each statement. If t - 13 = 52, then 52 = t - 13

Natali5045456 [20]

The property illustrated to each statement is commutative because it shows that for some value of t both statements are equal.

Continuous sinusoidal perturbation Assume that the string is at rest and perfectly horizontal again, and we will restart the clo

Elena-2011 [213]

a) $3.14 \cdot 10^{-4} s$

b) See plot attached

c) 10.0 m

d) 0.500 cm

Explanation:

The position of the tip of the lever at time t is described by the equation:

$y(t)=(0.500 cm) sin[(2.00\cdot 10^4 s^{-1})t]$ (1)

The generic equation that describes a wave is

$y(t)=A sin (\frac{2\pi}{T} t)$ (2)

where

A is the amplitude of the wave

T is the period of the wave

t is the time

By comparing (1) and (2), we see that for the wave in this problem we have

$\frac{2\pi}{T}=2.00\cdot 10^4 s^{-1}$

Therefore, the period is

$T=\frac{2\pi}{2.00\cdot 10^4}=3.14 \cdot 10^{-4} s$

The sketch of the profile of the wave until t = 4T is shown in attachment.

A wave is described by a sinusoidal function: in this problem, the wave is described by a sine, therefore at t = 0 the displacement is zero, y = 0.

The wave than periodically repeats itself every period. In this sketch, we draw the wave over 4 periods, so until t = 4T.

The maximum displacement of the wave is given by the value of y when $sin(...)=1$ , and from eq(1), we see that this is equal to

y = 0.500 cm

So, this is the maximum displacement represented in the sketch.

When standing waves are produced in a string, the ends of the string act as they are nodes (points with zero displacement): therefore, the wavelength of a wave in a string is equal to twice the length of the string itself:

$\lambda=2L$
