Elements that belong to the same period in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same number of:
electron shells |
|
protons |
|
electrons |
|
atomic mass units |
The rows of the Periodic Table are called periods and contain elements that have the same number of electron shells ordered from lower to higher atomic number.
In the heart, blood flows from the right __________ to the lungs then back to the heart via the left __________.
atrium, atrium |
|
ventricle, ventricle |
|
ventricle, atrium |
|
atrium, ventricle |
The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.
The formula \(\vec{F_{g}} = { Gm_{1}m_{2} \over r^2}\) applies to which of Newton's laws?
first law of motion |
|
universal gravitation |
|
third law of motion |
|
second law of motion |
Newton's law of universal gravitation defines gravity: All objects in the universe attract each other with an equal force that varies directly as a product of their masses, and inversely as a square of their distance from each other. Expressed as a formula: \(\vec{F_{g}} = { Gm_{1}m_{2} \over r^2}\) where r is the distance between the two objects and G is the gravitational constant with a value of 6.67 x 10-11.
Generally, an atom has __________ negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.

An electron is a subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. Generally, an atom has the same number of negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.
