Why do atoms have an overall neutral charge?

Physics
2 answers:
lbvjy [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

An atom has equal number of protons and electrons. The charge of an electron and a proton is same but opposite in nature. So, the total charge on the atom is zero and thus an atom is said to be neutral.

Atoms have an overall charge that is neutral because atoms have equal number of positive protons and negative electrons thus they cancel each other out. This always true for atoms that are stable and in equilibrium.

Kepler deduced this law of motion from observations of Mars. What information confirms his conclusion that the orbit of Mars is
Leno4ka [110]

Kepler noticed an imaginary line drawn from a planet to the Sun and this line swept out an equal area of space in equal times, If we then draw a triangle out from the Sun to a planet’s position at one point in time, it is notice that the area doesn't change even after the planet has left the original position say like after 2 to 3days or 2hours. So to have same area of triangle means that the the planet move faster when that are closer to the sun and slowly when they are far from the sun.

This led to Kepler's law of orbital motion.

First Law: Planetary orbits are elliptical with the sun at a focus.

Second Law: The radius vector from the sun to a planet sweeps equal areas in equal times.

Third Law: The ratio of the square of the period of revolution and the cube of the ellipse semi-major axis is the same for all planets.

It is this Kepler's law that makes Newton to come up with his own laws on how planet moves the way they do.

Spidermans nemesis electro delivers 4kj of electrical energy in half a second how much power does it draw from the mains?
Elodia [21]

Power delivered = (energy delivered) / (time to deliver the energy)

Power delivered = (4,000 J) / (0.5 sec)

Power delivered = 8,000 watts

I'm a little surprised to learn that Electro draws his power from the mains.  This is VERY good news for Spiderman !  It means that Spiderman can always avoid tangling with Electro ... all he has to do is stay farther away from Electro than the length of Electro's extension cord.

But OK.  Let's assume that Electro draws it all from the mains.  Then inevitably, there must be some loss in Electro's conversion process, between the outlet and his fingertips (or wherever he shoots his bolts from).

The efficiency of Electro's internal process is

<em>(power he shoots out) / (power he draws from the mains) </em>.

So, if he delivers energy toward his target at the rate of 8,000 watts, he must draw power from the mains at the rate of

<em>(8,000 watts) / (his internal efficiency) .  </em>

Two 110 kg bumper cars are moving toward each other in opposite directions. Car A is moving at 8 m/s and Car Z at –10 m/s when t
salantis [7]

Explanation:

Mass of bumper cars, m_1=m_2=110\ kg

Initial speed of car A, u_1=8\ m/s

Initial speed of car Z, u_2=-10\ m/s

Final speed of car A after the collision, v_1=-10\ m/s

We need to find the velocity of car Z after the collision. Let it is equal to v_2. Using the conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

110\times 8+110\times (-10)=110\times (-10)+110v_2

v_2=\dfrac{-1320}{110}\ m/s

v_2=-12\ m/s

So, the velocity of car Z after the collision is (-12 m/s). Hence, this is the required solution.
