When electrons are transferred from one atom to another, and the two atoms unite as a result of the opposite charges, a(n) _____
podryga [215]

Answer: ionic compound

Explanation:

An ionic compound is formed when one element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and forms a positively charged ion called as cation. The element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element and forms a negatively charged ion called as anion.

For formation of sodium chloride:

Electronic configuration of sodium:

[Na]=1s^22s^22p^63s^1

Sodium atom will loose one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form sodium cation with +1 charge.

[Na^+]=1s^22s^22p^63s^0

Electronic configuration of chlorine:

[Cl]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

Chlorine atom will gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form chloride ion with -1 charge.

[Cl^-]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6

The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic compound.

notka56 [123]
Incomplete question.  Full text is:

"<span>Give an example of a situation in which you would describe an object's position in (a) one-dimension coordinates (b) two-dimension coordinates (c) three-dimension coordinates"

Solution
(a) One dimension example: a man walking along a metal plank. We just need to specify one coordinate, the distance from the beginning of the plank.

(b) Two-dimension example: a ball moving on a circle. In this case, we need two coordinates: (x,y) to specify the position of the ball at every instant, since it is moving on a 2-D plane.

(c) The position of an airplane in the air: in this case we need 3 coordinates, the height, the latitude and the longitude of the airplane.</span>

A skateboarder shoots off a ramp with a velocity of 6.6 m/s, directed at an angle of 58 above the horizontal. The end of the ram
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

a) Maximum height reached above ground = 2.8 m

b) When he reaches maximum height he is 2 m far from end of the ramp.

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v²=u²+2as

   Considering vertical motion of skateboarder.  

   When he reaches maximum height,

          u = 6.6sin58 = 5.6 m/s

          a = -9.81 m/s²

          v = 0 m/s

  Substituting

         0²=5.6² + 2 x -9.81 x s

          s = 1.60 m

  Height above ground = 1.2 + 1.6 = 2.8 m

b) We have equation of motion v= u+at

   Considering vertical motion of skateboarder.  

   When he reaches maximum height,

          u = 6.6sin58 = 5.6 m/s

          a = -9.81 m/s²

          v = 0 m/s

  Substituting

         0= 5.6 - 9.81 x t

          t = 0.57s

  Now considering horizontal motion of skateboarder.  

  We have equation of motion s =ut + 0.5 at²

          u = 6.6cos58 = 3.50 m/s

          a = 0 m/s²

          t = 0.57  

  Substituting

         s =3.5 x 0.57 + 0.5 x 0 x 0.57²

         s = 2 m

  When he reaches maximum height he is 2 m far from end of the ramp.

Transverse thrusters are used to make large ships fully maneuverable at low speeds without tugboat assistance. A transverse thru
suter [353]

Answer:

Thrust developed = 212.3373 kN

Explanation:

Assuming the ship is stationary

<u>Determine the Thrust developed</u>

power supplied to the propeller ( Punit ) = 1900 KW

Duct distance ( diameter ; D  ) = 2.6 m

first step : <em>calculate the area of the duct </em>

A = π/4 * D^2

   =  π/4 * ( 2.6)^2  = 5.3092 m^2

<em>next : calculate the velocity of propeller</em>

Punit = (A*v*β ) / 2  * V^2     ( assuming β = 999 kg/m^3 ) also given V1 = 0

∴V^3 = Punit * 2 / A*β

         = ( 1900 * 10^3 * 2 ) / ( 5.3092 * 999 )

hence V2 = 8.9480 m/s

<em>Finally determine the thrust developed </em>

F = Punit / V2

  = (1900 * 10^3) / ( 8.9480)

  = 212.3373 kN
