The two subatomic particles that contribute to the net charge of an ion are electrons and protons.

Atom is the smallest possible amount of matter which still retains its identity as a chemical element, now known to consist of a nucleus surrounded by electrons.

The atom is made up of three components called subatomic particles as follows;

Protons
Electrons
Neutrons

The proton is the positively charged subatomic particle forming part of the nucleus of an atomwhile the electron is the subatomic particle having a negative charge and orbiting the nucleus.

This suggests that the two subatomic particles that contribute to the net charge of an ion are electrons and protons. That is;

Net charge = protons - electrons

Answer:

$v_{1} = 2.490\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v_{2} = 0.023\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The statement is described physically by means of the Principle of Momentum Conservation. Let assume that first person moves in the positive direction:

First Person

$(65.8\,kg)\cdot (2.51\,\frac{m}{s}) = (65.8\,kg)\cdot v_{1} + (0.0413\,kg)\cdot (32.5\,\frac{m}{s} )$

Second Person

$(0.0413\,kg)\cdot (32.5\,\frac{m}{s})+(58.7\,kg)\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s})=(0.0413\,kg+58.7\,kg)\cdot v_{2}$

The final velocities of the two people after the snowball is exchanged is:

$v_{1} = 2.490\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v_{2} = 0.023\,\frac{m}{s}$

How much charge can be added to each of the plates before a spark jumps between the two plates? For such flat electrodes, assume

Svetach [21]

Answer:

$9.56\cdot 10^{-7} C$

Explanation:

A parallel-plate capacitors consist of two parallel plates charged with opposite charge.

Since the distance between the plates (1 cm) is very small compared to the side of the plates (19 cm), we can consider these two plates as two infinite sheets of charge.

The electric field between two infinite sheets with opposite charge is:

$E=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}$
