Lorenzo is making a prediction. “I learned that nonmetals increase in reactivity when moving from left to right. So I predict th

at xenon will be more reactive than iodine.” Is Lorenzo correct? If so, why? If not, explain his error.

That prediction is not correct because Xenon is extremely stable; column 18 of the periodic table contains the noble gasses, which are stable because their outer-most energy levels are completely filled. Having the octet (8) of valence electrons means that the element no longer needs to lose or gain electrons to gain stability.

The column 17 elements are unstable because they only have one valence electron short of the stable octet configuration of the noble gasses.

<span>Lorenzo is not correct. Nonmetals increase in reactivity from left to right because nonmetals on the right have more valence electrons. They need to gain fewer electrons to have a full outer shell. However, this trend only continues until group 17, because the noble gases already have a full outer shell. Therefore, their reactivity is the least of all the elements.</span>

Superman is standing 393 m horizontally away from Lois Lane. A villain drops a rock from 4.00 m directly above Lois. If Superman
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

-963.93 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 4=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{4\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.903\ s

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 393=0\times 0.0903+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 0.903^2\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{393\times 2}{0.903^2}\\\Rightarrow a=963.93\ m/s^2

The acceleration of Superman would be -963.93 m/s² from Lois' perspective

Draw the vector C⃗ =1.5A⃗ −3B⃗ . The length and orientation of the vector will be graded. The location of the vector is not impo
Nutka1998 [239]
I made the drawing in the attached file.

I included two figures.

The upper figure shows the effect of:

- multiplying vector A times 1.5.
 It is drawn in red with dotted line.

- multiplying vector B times - 3 .
It is drawn in purple with dotted line.

In the lower figure you have the resultant vector: C = 1.5A - 3B.

The method is that you translate the tail of the vector -3B unitl the point of the vector 1,5A, preserving the angles.

Then you draw the arrow that joins the tail of 1,5A with the point of -3B after translation.

The resultant arrow is the vector C and it is drawn in black dotted line.

A mouse runs along a baseboard in your house. The mouse's position as a function of time is given by x(t)=pt2+qt, with p = 0.36
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

0.60 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity from t = a to t = b is:

v_avg = (x(b) − x(a)) / (b − a)

Given that x(t) = 0.36t² − 1.20t, and the time is from 1.0 to 4.0:

v_avg = (x(4.0) − x(1.0)) / (4.0 − 1.0)

v_avg = [(0.36(4.0)² − 1.20(4.0)) − (0.36(1.0)² − 1.20(1.0))] / 3.0

v_avg = [(5.76 − 4.8) − (0.36 − 1.20)] / 3.0

v_avg = [0.96 − (-0.84)] / 3.0

v_avg = 0.60

The average speed is 0.60 m/s.

Observe: Up until now, all the problems you have solved have involved converting only one unit. However, some conversion problem
ipn [44]

Answer:

t is appropriate to clarify that units such as time and angles the transformation is not in base ten, for example:

        60 s = 1 min

        60 min = 1 h

        24 h = 1 day

Therefore, for this transformation, you must be more careful

the length transformation is base 10

Explanation:

In many exercises the units used are transformed by equations into other units called derivatives, in general the transformation of derived units is the product of the transformation of the constituent units.

In the example of velocity, the derivative unit is m / s, which is why it works in the same way that you transform length and time if in the equation it is multiplying it is multiplied and if it is dividing it is divided.

It is appropriate to clarify that units such as time and angles the transformation is not in base ten, for example:

        60 s = 1 min

        60 min = 1 h

        24 h = 1 day

Therefore, for this transformation, you must be more careful

the length transformation is base 10

Two charges of magnitude 5nC and -2nC are placed at points (2cm,0,0) and
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

20 cm

Explanation:

Te electric potential enery U = kq₁q₂/r  were q₁ = 5 nC = 5 × 10⁻⁹ C and q₂ = -2 nC = -2 × 10⁻⁹ C and r = √(x - 2)² + (0 - 0)² +(0 - 0)² = x - 2. U =  -0.5 µJ = -0.5 × 10⁻⁶ J, k = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C².

So r = kq₁q₂/U

x - 2 = kq₁q₂/U

x = 0.02 + kq₁q₂/U m

x = 0.02 + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² × 5 × 10⁻⁹ C × -2 × 10⁻⁹ C/-0.5 × 10⁻⁶ J

x = 0.02 - 90 × 10⁻⁹ Nm²/-0.5 × 10⁻⁶ J

x = 0.02 + 0.18 = 0.2 m = 20 cm
