different between group IA and IIA elements​

Answers

Answer:

Group IA elements have only one valency electron while Group IIA have two valency electrons.

Group IA elements have cations with higher charge density hence polarizing anions easier resulting into covalent character while Group IIA elements have cations with lower charge density hence difficulty in distorting anions resulting into a ionic character. This is due to difference in cationic radii and charges

14. A 3.0 kg metal ball, at rest, is hit by a 1.0 kg metal ball moving at 4.0 m/s. The 3.0 kg ball moves
forward at 2.0 m/s and the 1.0 kg ball bounces back at 2.0 m/s.
(a) What is the total kinetic energy before the collision?

Answers

Answer:

The kinetic energy before the collision was 8 J

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the metal ball at rest, m₁ = 3.0 kg

The velocity of the ball at rest = 0 m/s

The mass of the metal ball that hits the one at rest, m₂ = 1.0 kg

The velocity of the metal ball that hits the one at rest, v₂ = 4.0 m/s

The velocity with which the 3.0 kg ball moves forward = 2.0 m/s

The velocity with which the 1.0 kg ball bounces back = 2.0 m/s

a) Kinetic energy, K.E. = 1/2 × m × v²

Where;

m = The mass of the of the object in motion

v = The velocity of the object

Before the collision, we have;

Initial K.E. = 1/2 × m₁ × v₁² + 1/2 × m₂ × v₂²

∴ Initial K.E. = 1/2 × 3.0 kg × (0 m/s)² + 1/2 × 1.0 kg × (4.0 m/s) ² = 8 J

The kinetic energy before the collision = The initial K.E. = 8 J.

Explain how the aperture geometry relates to the
diffraction pattern.

Answers

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

how the aperture geometry relates to the

diffraction pattern:

Diffraction is the spreading out of waves as they pass through an aperture or around objects.it occurs when the size of the aperture or obstacle is of the same order of magnitude as the wavelength of  the incident wave.For every small aperture sizes,the vast majority of the wave is blocked.For large apertures the wave passes by or through the obstacle without any significant of diffraction.

            in an aperture with width smaller than the wavelength,the wave transmitted through the aperture spreads all the way around the behave like a point sources of waves.

                             single slit diffraction pattern

The diffraction pattern made by waves passing through a slit of width [tex]\alpha[/tex] (larger than∫) can be understood by imagining a series of point sources all in phase along the width of the slit.The waves moving directly forward are all in phase,so they from a large central maximum.

                 if the waves travels at an angle Ф from the normal to the slit,then there is a path difference x between the waves production at the two end of the slit.

           x=a sinΦ

The path difference between the top and middle waves is λ/2 then they are exactly out of phase and cancel each other out. This happens to all consecutive pairs of waves (the ones produced by the second source from the top and the second source past the middle etc.)at the angle so there is no resultant wave at this angle.Thus a minimum is the diffraction pattern is obtained at

                                                   λ=α sinθ

Now slit can be divided into four equal sections and the pairing of sources to give destructive interference can be repeated for the top two section ,which is identical to the result of pairing off matching sources in the bottom two sections.in this case we obtained from the minimum.

             λ/2=α/4 sinθ

we can divided the slit aperture into six equal sections and pair off sources in the top two divisions and then the bottom two,to give destructive interference for every matched pair.The minimum of intensity are obtained at angles

                      nλ = α sinθ

where n is an integer (1,2,......),  but not n=0.There is a maximum of intensity in the center of the pattern. This process only gives the position of the minima,does not work for positions of the maxima,and so does not give the intensities of the maxima.

This is a crucial principle, the fundamental fact that everyone is different! Everyone responds to training in a different way. If you are walking or cycling with a friend, and doing exactly the same amount of training, don’t be concerned if one of you gets fitter faster than the other – this is what individualisation is all about.

It might be that one of you is having some pressure at work or difficulties at home, but wherever it is, it’s surprising what can affect your training. Some days your training can go really well and the next day, even though it was exactly the same length workout, it can be a nightmare. This is individualisation.

You get a job delivering water. You calculate how much work is done picking up each 20 L bottle of

9.8 m/s2)
-196J
-2,000 J
-19,600 J
-196,000J

Answers

Answer:

The work done by picking up 100 20-L bottles and raising it vertically 1 meter is 19614 joules.

Explanation:

By the Work-Energy Theorem, the work needed to raise vertically 100 bottles of water is equal to the gravitational potential energy, units for work and energy are in joules:

[tex]\Delta W = \Delta U_{g}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]\Delta W[/tex] - Work.

[tex]\Delta U_{g}[/tex] - Gravitational potential energy.

The work is equal to the following formula:

[tex]\Delta W = n\cdot \rho \cdot V \cdot g \cdot \Delta h[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]n[/tex] - Number of bottles, dimensionless.

[tex]\rho[/tex] - Density of water, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

[tex]V[/tex] - Volume, measured in cubic meters.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

[tex]\Delta h[/tex] - Vertical displacement, measured in meters.

If we know that [tex]n = 100[/tex], [tex]\rho = 1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}[/tex], [tex]V = 0.02\,m^{3}[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]\Delta h = 1\,m[/tex], then the work done is:

[tex]\Delta W = (100)\cdot \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot (0.02\,m^{3})\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (1\,m)[/tex]

[tex]\Delta W = 19614\,J[/tex]

The work done by picking up 100 20-L bottles and raising it vertically 1 meter is 19614 joules.

Standing waves are created in the four strings shown in Figure 25. All strings have the same mass per unit length and are under the same tension The lengths of the strings are given. Rank the frequencies of the oscillations, from largest to smallest

Answers

Answer:

The rank of the frequencies from largest to smallest is

The largest frequency of oscillation is given by the string in option D

The second largest frequency of oscillation is given by the string in option B

The third largest frequency of oscillation is given by the string in option A

The smallest frequency of oscillation is given by the string in option C

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass per unit length of all string, m/L = Constant

The tension of all the string, T = Constant

The frequency of oscillation, f, of a string is given as follows;

[tex]f = \dfrac{(n + 1) \times \sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/L} } }{2 \cdot L}[/tex]

Where;

T = The tension in the string

m = The mass of the string

L = The length of the string

n = The number of overtones

[tex]Therefore, \ {\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/L} } } = Constant \ for \ all \ strings = K[/tex]

For the string in option A, the length, L = 27 cm, n = 3 we have;

[tex]f_A = \dfrac{(n + 1) \times \sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/L} } }{2 \cdot L} = \dfrac{(3 + 1) \times K }{2 \times 27} = \dfrac{2 \times K}{27} \approx 0.07407 \cdot K[/tex]

For the string in option B, the length, L = 30 cm, n = 4 we have;

[tex]f_B = \dfrac{(n + 1) \times \sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/L} } }{2 \cdot L} = \dfrac{(4 + 1) \times K }{2 \times 30} = \dfrac{ K}{12} \approx 0.08 \overline 3\cdot K[/tex]

For the string in option C, the length, L = 30 cm, n = 3 we have;

[tex]f_C = \dfrac{(n + 1) \times \sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/L} } }{2 \cdot L} = \dfrac{(3 + 1) \times K }{2 \times 30} = \dfrac{K}{15} \approx 0.0 \overline 6 \cdot K[/tex]

For the string in option D, the length, L = 24 cm, n = 4 we have;

[tex]f_D = \dfrac{(n + 1) \times \sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/L} } }{2 \cdot L} = \dfrac{(4 + 1) \times K }{2 \times 24} = \dfrac{5 \times K}{48} \approx 0.1041 \overline 6 \cdot K[/tex]

Therefore, we have the rank of the frequency of oscillations of th strings from largest to smallest given as follows;

1 ) [tex]f_D[/tex] 2) [tex]f_B[/tex] 3) [tex]f_A[/tex] 4) [tex]f_C[/tex]

                                         

The order of the frequencies is  [tex]f_D>f_B>f_A>f_C[/tex]

Standing waves:

The frequency of the standing wave in a string tied at both ends is given by:

[tex]f=\frac{nv}{2L}[/tex]

where n is the mode of frequency

v is the velocity of the wave

and L is the length of the string.

Now the velocity of a wave in a string tied at both ends is given by

[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}[/tex]

where T is the tension and μ is the mass per unit length.

Since T and μ are the same for all the strings, velocity [tex]v[/tex] will be the same for all.

Now to find the mode of frequency we can calculate the number of nodes (including the nodes at the ends) in the given figure and subtract by 1. Nodes are the point where the amplitude of the wave is zero.

[tex]f_A=\frac{3v}{2\times27}=\frac{v}{18}\;s^{-1}\\\\f_B=\frac{4v}{2\times30}=\frac{v}{15}\;s^{-1}\\\\f_C=\frac{3v}{2\times30}=\frac{v}{20}\;s^{-1}\\\\f_D=\frac{4v}{2\times24}= \frac{v}{12}\;s^{-1}[/tex]

Hence, [tex]f_D>f_B>f_A>f_C[/tex]

5) The approximate height is about 80 m. Choice (c)

6) The stone takes about 3 seconds to rise to its maximum height

Explanation:

Free Fall Motion

A free-falling object falls under the sole influence of gravity. Any object that is being acted upon only by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of free fall.

If an object is dropped from rest in a free-falling motion, it falls with a constant acceleration called the gravitational acceleration, which value is [tex]g = 9.8 m/s^2[/tex].

The distance traveled by a dropped object is:

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}[/tex]

Question 5

Given the stone reaches the ground in t=4 seconds, the height of the tower is:

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{9.8*4^2}{2}=78.4\ m[/tex]

The approximate height is about 80 m. Choice (c)

Question 6

Vertical Motion

The vertical motion of an object is controlled by the force of gravity. This means that there is a non-zero net force acting on the object that makes it accelerate downwards.

If the object is thrown upwards at speed vo, its speed at time t is:

[tex]v_f=v_o-g.t[/tex]

The stone reaches its maximum height when the final speed is zero, thus:

[tex]v_o-g.t=0[/tex]

Solving for t:

[tex]\displaystyle t=\frac{v_o}{g}[/tex]

The stone is thrown vertically upwards with vo=30 m/s, thus:

[tex]\displaystyle t=\frac{30}{9.8}[/tex]

[tex]t=3.06\ s[/tex]

[tex]t\approx 3\ s[/tex]

The stone takes about 3 seconds to rise to its maximum height

When going from a fast speed to a slow speed how is light bent?

Answers

Toward the normal line

Answer:

Toward the normal line

Explanation:

I had the same question on a quiz

Answer with explanation!!!

Answers

Answer:

The light enters the box along the normal to the side of the box or perpendicularly to the box's surface

Therefore, the light is expected to travel straight through the box

However, when a rectangular glass prism is placed inside the box, the light can then be refracted to pass through the box in the given path as shown

Light bends towards the normal when passing from a less dense medium to a denser medium with larger refractive index and vice versa

Therefore, when the glass prism with a larger refractive index than air is inclined with the top part further away from the incident beam and the bottom part closer to the incident beam as shown, the refracted ray through the box will be shifted downwards as shown in the drawing created with Microsoft Visio

Explanation:

[tex]Refractive \ index, n = \dfrac{sin(i)}{sin(r)}[/tex]

Where;

i = The angle between the incidence light and the normal line

r = The angle between the refracted light and the normal line

n = The refractive index

When n > 1 is large, we have, ∠i > ∠r and the light is bent towards the normal when moving from a less dense medium to a denser medium and vice versa.

incandescent lights get hot very quickly and therefore can easily burn u or catch fire

Answer:

In reality, the filament gets so hot it in a real sense bubbles off molecules and electrons. Now and again this material gathers as a dull spot at the highest point of the bulb. Eventually, the filament falls apart, gets frail, and breaks, subsequently finishing the life of the light. Lights radiate light by siphoning an electric flow through a dainty tungsten fiber. The filament warms and emits light. Over the long haul, the filament oxidizes and turns out to be increasingly fragile, until it splits up and the bulb goes out. ...

A girl runs at a speed of 3.9 m/s off a high dive and hit the water 1.8 s later.

a. How high was the diving board?


b. How far horizontally was she from the board when she hit the water?



c. If she had just dropped off the board, would her time to drop to the water been longer, shorter or the same?

Answers

Answer:

(a) the height of the diving board is 22.896 m

(b) the horizontal distance traveled by the girl is 7.02 m

(c) if she had just drop off the board, her time to drop to the water would have been longer.

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed of the girl, u = 3.9 m/s

time to hit the water, t = 1.8 s

(a) the height of the diving board is calculated as;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

h = (3.9 x 1.8)  +  ¹/₂ x 9.8 x 1.8²

h = 7.02 + 15.876

h =  22.896 m

(b) the horizontal distance traveled by the girl is calculated as;

X = ut

X = 3.9 x 1.8

X = 7.02 m

(c) if she just drop off the board, then the initial speed will be zero;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

h = 0 + ¹/₂gt²

2h = gt²

[tex]t^2 = \frac{2h}{g} \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2 \ \times\ 22.896 }{9.8} }\\\\t = 2.16 \ s[/tex]

Thus, if she had just dropped off the board, her time to drop to the water would have been longer.

A car accident my rolls off a cliff as it leaves the cliff it has a horizontal velocity of 13 ms it hiys the ground 60 m from the shoreline calculate the height of the cliff

Answers

Answer:

104.59 m

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Horizontal velocity (u) = 13 ms¯¹

Horizontal distance (s) = 60 m

Height (h) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the car to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Horizontal velocity (u) = 13 ms¯¹

Horizontal distance (s) = 60 m

Time (t) =?

s = ut

60 = 13 × t

Divide both side by 13

t = 60 / 13

t = 4.62 s

Finally, we shall determine the height cliff. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (t) = 4.62 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Height (h) =?

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 4.62²

h = 4.9 × 21.3444

h = 104.59 m

Thus, the height of the cliff is 104.59 m
