FULL ANSWER

Neutrons and protons make up a nucleus and they are in the middle of an atom. Electrons surround the nucleus. Opposite charges attract each other. Because of this, protons do not attract other protons and electrons do not attract other electrons. Instead, protons attract electrons and electrons attract protons. When someone looks at the elements on the periodic table, they can see how many protons are present by looking at the atomic number. Since atoms have to have an equal amount of each, if an element contains 36 protons, it also has 36 electrons.

Why are household wall sockets alternating current (AC) instead of direct current (DC)? Select all that apply.

Bond [772]

Answer:

It is easier to scale the voltage of AC from high to low and low to high than with DC

Explanation:

typically power is used far away from the place where it's generated so to ensure that transmission losses( copper losses) are minimized voltage has to be stepped up during transmission..but due to the fact that most house hold equipment requires low voltage levels it has to be stepped down once it reaches a household/ domestic load...it's easier to do this for Ac than for DC.

Runner A is initially 6.0 km west of a flagpole and is running with a constant velocity of 9.0 km/h due east. Runner B is initia

sergejj [24]

Answer:

0.176m from the flagpole, westward.

Explanation:

Let the Eastward be the positive direction. So initially runner A is at position -6km, running with velocity of 9km/h while runner B is at position 5km running at a velocity of -8km/h. We can conduct the following equation for their distances over the same time t

$s_A = -6 + 9t$

$s_B = 5 - 8t$

When A an B meets, they are at the same position and at the same time. So

$s_A = s_B$

$-6 +9t = 5 - 8t$

$17t = 5 + 6 = 11$

$t = 11/17 = 0.647 s$

$s_A = -6 + 9*0.647 = -0.176 m$

So where they meet is 0.176m from the flagpole, westward.

Una niña está empujando un baúl. El PESO del baúl es de 230 N y el roce es de 50 N, la niña sólo logra ejercer una fuerza de 30

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Su padre necesita aplicar una fuerza de 20 newtons en la misma dirección que la fuerza aplicada por su hija.

Explanation:

Asúmase que el baúl se mueve en una superficie horizontal. La fuerza de rozamiento dada por el problema es la fuerza de rozamiento estático máximo, se requiere una fuerza externa antiparalela a la fuerza de rozamiento estático máximo para que el baúl se empiece a mover. La ecuación de equilibrio de fuerzas horizontales sobre el baúl es:

$\Sigma F = P - f = 0$
