A vertical column in the periodic table. Members of a group typically have similar properties and electron configurations in their outer shell. Period. A horizontal row in the periodic table. The atomic number of each element increases by one, reading from left to right.
circumference - the length of the closed curve of a circle. length - the linear extent in space from one end to the other; the longest dimension of something that is fixed in place; the length of the table was 5 feet. sextant - a unit of angular distance equal to 60 degrees.
The radius of a circle is the distance from the center of the circle to the outside edge. The diameter of a circle: The diameter of a circle is longest distance across a circle. (The diameter cuts through the center of the circle. This is what makes it the longest distance.) The circumference of a circle (the perimeter of a circle): The circumference of a circle is the perimeter -- the distance around the outer edge. Circumference =. where r = the radius of the circle.
