What happens to atoms as you move across the periods on the periodic table?

1 answer:

3 0

As you move across a period, the atomic mass increases because the atomic number also increases. When the atomic number increases, this means that there are more protons and neutrons that add to the atomic mass of an atom

When a 5 kg rock is dropped from a height of 6 m on Planet X, it loses 24 J of GPE. What is the acceleration due to gravity on P

yan [13]

Answer:

g = 1.25m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 5kg

Height = 6m

Gravitational potential energy = 24J

To find the acceleration due to gravity;

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

$P.E = mgh$

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

GPE = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have;

24 = 5*6*g

24 = 30g

g = 30/24

g = 1.25m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity on Planet X is 1.25m/s².

plz i need help fast................a motion along a straight line with a constant increase in velocity is ?

Monica [59]

Answer:

uniform acceleration

Explanation:

The definition for uniform acceleration is:

if an object travels in a straight line and its velocity increases or decreases by equal amounts in equal intervals of time, then the acceleration is said to be uniform.

Hope this helps.

Good Luck

As a vector, displacement has which qualities? magnitude only, direction only, magnitude and direction, neither magnitude or dir

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

In physical science, there are two types of quantity: scalar and vector. While scalar quantities only include the magnitude, vector quantities include both the magnitude and the direction. Displacement is an example of vector quantities. Therefore, it includes magnitude and direction.

Matthew drives 10 meters to go to the park at her the park he goes to the movie theatre which is 15 meters away from the park. H

Step2247 [10]

Answer: 0 m

Explanation:

Let's begin by stating clear that movement is the change of position of a body at a certain time. So, during this movement, the body will have a trajectory and a displacement, being both different:

The trajectory is the path followed by the body (is a scalar quantity).

The displacement is the distance in a straight line between the initial and final position (is a vector quantity).

According to this, in the description Matthew's home is placed at 0 on a number line, then he moves 10 m to the park (this is the distance between the park and Mattew's home), then 15 m to the movie theatre until he finally comes back to his home (position 0). So, in this case we are talking about the path followed by Matthew, hence his trajectory.

However, if we talk about Matthew's displacement, we have to draw a straight line between Matthew's initial position (point 0) to his final position (also point 0).

Now, being this an unidimensional problem, the displacement vector for Matthew is 0 meters.
