The answer is 5 electrons
Deffense [45]3 years ago

The atomic number gives the number of protons. Protons which have positive charge are balanced by an equal number of electrons in a neutral atom. Boron number 5 has five protons and therefore as a neutral atom also has five electrons.

Two gliders are on a frictionless, level air track. Both gliders are free to move. Initially, glider A moves to the right and gl
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The change in momentum of both objects is the same but in opposite direction.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The momentum of the system is calculated as the sum of the momentums of each glider. The momentum of the system is conserved if no external force is acting on the objects (as in this case). That means that the initial momentum of the system is equal to the final momentum of the system.

The momentum of each glider is calculated as follows:

p = m · v

Where:

p = momentum.

m = mass of the glider.

v = velocity.

The momentum of the system for glider A and B can be calculated as follows:

initial momentum = mA · vA + mB · vB

Where:

mA and vA = mass and velocity of glider A

mB and vB = mass and velocity of glider B

Initially, glider B is at rest so that vB = 0. Then, the initial momentum of the system is:

initial momentum = mA · vA

The final momentum of the system is calculated as follows:

final momentum = mA · vA´ + mB · vB´

Where vA´ and vB´ are the final velocities of glider A and B respectively.

We know that mB = 4mA and that vA´ is negative. The the final momentum will be:

final momentum = -mA · vA´ + 4mA · vB´

Since initial momentum = final momentum:

mA · vA = -mA · vA´ + 4mA · vB´

mA · vA + mA · vA´ = 4mA · vB´

<u>vA + vA´ = 4 vB´</u>

<u />

The change in momentum of glider A (ΔpA) is calculated as follows:

ΔpA = final momentum - initial momentum

ΔpA =  -mA · vA´ - mA · vA = -mA (vA + vA´) = -4mA · vB´

The change in momentum of glider B (ΔpB) is calculated as follows:

ΔpB = final momentum - initial momentum

ΔpB = 4mA · vB´ - 0 = 4mA · vB´

Then, the change in momentum of both objects is the same but in opposite direction. That´s why the momentum is conserved.

Thermodynamic Processes: An ideal gas is compressed isothermally to one-third of its initial volume. The resulting pressure will
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The resulting pressure is 3 times the initial pressure.

Explanation:

The equation of state for ideal gases is described below:

P\cdot V = n \cdot R_{u}\cdot T (1)

Where:

P - Pressure.

V - Volume.

n - Molar quantity, in moles.

R_{u} - Ideal gas constant.

T - Temperature.

Given that ideal gas is compressed isothermally, this is, temperature remains constant, pressure is increased and volume is decreased, then we can simplify (1) into the following relationship:

P_{1}\cdot V_{1} = P_{2}\cdot V_{2} (2)

If we know that \frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} = \frac{1}{3}, then the resulting pressure of the system is:

P_{2} = P_{1}\cdot \left(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} \right)

P_{2} = 3\cdot P_{1}

The resulting pressure is 3 times the initial pressure.

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

45000 kg and 45 tons  

Explanation:

The expression in kilograms and tons is shown below;

As we know that

1 gr is 0.001 kg

So, 45000000 = 45,000 kg

And,

1 kg = 0.001 tons  

So, 45000 kg = 45 tons    

Therefore the same would be considered
