Which of the following statements best explains why the table of known elements is called the "periodic table"? a. the table is used mostly by molecular researchers who use it infrequently to organize their lab chemicals. b. the table organizes the elements alphabetically so that the elements are easy to find. c. the table organizes the elements according to regular, repeating chemical properties. d. each element on the table is referred to as a "period".

Chameleons catch insects with their tongues, which they can rapidly extend to great lengths. in a typical strike, the chameleon's tongue accelerates at a remarkable 220 m/s2 for 20 ms, then travels at constant speed for another 30 ms.

Two 1.20-m nonconducting wires meet at a right angle. one segment carries + 2.50 µc of charge distributed uniformly along its length, and the other carries - 2.50 µc distributed uniformly along it, as shown in fig. 21.50. ( a. find the magnitude and direction of the electric field these wires produce at point p, which is 60.0 cm from each wire. ( b. if an electron is released at p, what are the magnitude and direction of the net force that these wires exert on it?

Orque can be calculated by multiplying the force (n) applied at 90∘ to the lever arm at a distance (m) from the pivot point (point of rotation), the compound si unit for the torque is n⋅m. if the force (at 90∘ to the lever arm) applied is 15 n and it is applied at 2.0 m from the pivot point (point of rotation), what is the torque on the lever?
