Elements in group 2 are called alkaline earth metals, the most similarity about the alkaline metals is which chemical properties they have.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Periodic table  </h3>
  • Periodic table is a table that contains elements arranged in columns called groups and rows called periods.
  • Elements are arranged based on physical and chemical properties such that elements in the same group will have similar physical and chemical properties.  
<h3>Chemical families  </h3>
  • Based on the chemical properties elements belong to a family of elements sharing similar chemical or physical characteristics.
  • Examples of common chemical families include; alkali metals, alkaline-earth metals, halogens and noble gases among others.
<h3>Alkaline-earth metals  </h3>
  • These are elements that are found in group 2 of the periodic table. Alkaline-earth metals include, Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, and Radium.  

Properties  of Alkaline-earth metals

  • Alkaline earth metals have a valence of two since they form ions by losing two electrons from their outermost energy levels.
  • Unlike the Alkali metals, the earth metals have a smaller atom size and are not as reactive compared to alkali metals.
  • Alkaline-earth metals are highly metallic and are good conductors of electricity.  
  • They react with water and steam to form metal hydroxide and metal oxides respectively  
  • They react with air to form metal oxides  
  • Reactivity of alkaline metals depends on the ease of losing electrons, thus the reactivity increases down the group as the number of energy levels increases.
  • Additionally, alkaline-earth metals have low electronegativities and low electron affinities

a 10.0 kg block on a smooth horizontal surface is acted upon by two forces: a horizontal force of 30 N acting to the right and a
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

a=-3\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Second Newton's Law</u>

It allows to compute the acceleration of an object of mass m subject to a net force Fn. The relation is given by

F_n=m.a

The net force is the sum of all vector forces applied to the object. The block has two horizontal forces applied (in absence of friction): The 30 N force acting to the right and the 60 N force to the left. The positive horizontal direction is assumed to the right, so the net force is

F_n=30\ N-60\ N=-30\ N

Thus, the acceleration can be computed by

\displaystyle a=\frac{F_n}{m}=\frac{-30}{10}=-3\ m/s^2

\boxed{\displaystyle a=-3\ m/s^2}

The negative sign indicates the block is accelerated to the left

A biker travels at an average speed of 18 km/hr along a 0.30 km straight segment of a bike path. How much time (in hours) does t
lawyer [7]

Answer: 0.016 h

Explanation:

\text{Average speed} = \frac{\text {Total Distance}}{\text {total time taken}}

It is given that, biker has an average speed = 18 km/h

Total distance traveled = 0.30 km

Therefore, time taken by biker to travel this distance:

\Rightarrow \text{total time taken} = \frac{0.30 km}{18 km/h}=0.016 h

Thus, the biker takes 0.016 hours to travel the segment of 0.30 km at an average speed of 18 km/h.

A 1500 W radiant heater is constructed to operate at 115 V. (a) What will be the current in the heater? (b) What is the resistan
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a) I = 13.04 A

b)  R = 8.82 ohms

c) 1291.87 kilocalories are generated an hour.

Explanation:

let P be the power of the heater, V be the voltage of the heater, I be the current of the heater, R be the resistance.

a) we know that:

P = I×V

I = P/V

  = (1500)/(115)

  = 13.04 A

Therefore, the current of the heater is 13.04 A

b) we now have voltage and current, according to Ohm's law:

R = V/I

  = (115)/(13.04)

  = 8.82 ohms

Therefore, the resistance of the heating coil is 8.82 ohms.

c) the number of kilocalories generated in one hour by the heater is just the energy the heater produces in one hour which is given by:

E = P×t

  = (1500)(1×60×60)

  = 5400000 J

since 1 calorie = 4.81 J

1 kilocalorie = 0.001 calories

E = 5400000/4.18 ≈ 1291866.029 calories ≈1291.87 kilocalories

Therefore, 1291.87 kilocalories are produced/generated in one hour.

You place a light bulb 8 cm in front of a concave mirror. You then move a sheet of paper back and forth in front of the mirror.
Alika [10]

sorry - late reply...just stumbled across tis...hope u can still use it :)


By the mirror equation: 1/di + 1/do = 1/f

<span>
</span>

<span>where di = distance to image = +12cm (+ for real image)</span>


and do = distance to object = +8cm


Substitute and solve for f, the focal length

<span><span>
1/12 + 1/8 = 1/f
</span><span>
1/f = (8 + 12) / 12 * 8 = 20/96
</span><span>
so f = 96/20 = 4.8 cm</span>
