(a) 4.8\cdot 10^{-19} C

The radius of the trajectory of a charged particle moving perpendicular to a magnetic field is given by

r=\frac{mv}{qB}

where

m is the mass of the particle

q is its charge

v is its velocity

B is the strength of the magnetic field

In this problem, we have:

m=2.66\cdot 10^{-26} kg

v=5.00\cdot 10^6 m/s

B = 1.20 T

r = 0.231 m

Solving for q, we find its charge:

q=\frac{mv}{rB}=\frac{(2.66\cdot 10^{-26})(5.00\cdot 10^6)}{(0.231)(1.20)}=4.8\cdot 10^{-19} C

(b) 3

The charge of an electron is

e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

While the charge of this oxygen ion is

q=4.8\cdot 10^{-19}C

So, the ratio between the two charges is

\frac{q}{e}=\frac{4.8\cdot 10^{-19}}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19}}=3

(c) Because an ion is an atom that has gained/lost an integer number of electrons

An ion is an atom that has gained/lost an integer number of electrons. In this particular case, we see that the charge of the oxygen ion is 3 times that of the electron: this means that the ion has gained/lost exactly 3 electrons.

The ratio found in part (b) cannot be a fraction, because that would mean that the atom has gained/lost a fractional number of electrons: but this is impossible, since the electron is a fundamental particle so it cannot be "divided", therefore the ratio must be an integer.

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Combustion reaction resulted in formation of Hydrogen gas.

Explanation:

When zinc and Hydrogen Chloride (HCl) are mixed together, it is a oxidation reduction process. To be specific, a combustion reaction takes place. It is an exothermic reaction. Exothermic reactions involve oxygen and generate . Here, due to this exothermic reaction, Hydrogen gas is being produced which results in the formation of bubble and inflation of balloon.

A 25 N force at 60° is required to set a crate into motion on a floor. What is the value of the static friction?
True [87]
The normal force of the force given is calculated through the equation,
 
                                 Fn = F(sin θ)
where Fn is the normal force, F is the force, and θ is the angle. 
  
                                Fn = (25 N)(sin 60°) = 21.65 N

The x-component of the force applied is,
                               Fx = (25 N)(cos 60°) = 12.5 N

The value of the coefficient of static friction is calculated through the equation,
                              F = μFn
                              μ = Fx / Fn = 12.5 N / 21.65 N = 0.577
