There are 8 protons in an element with an atomic number of 8. The atomic number is equivalent to both the number of protons and electrons. Keep in mind that all elements on the periodic table are neutral, so they will have an equal number of protons and electrons.

What are the characteristics of low energy waves
Degger [83]
Some characteristics I think would include that low energy waves have a greater distance between the points on the crest or points on trough in the wave. Greater, longer wavelength. Thus lower frequency hence less energy provided through the wave. The amplitude for low energy waves is less than that of high energy waves. Basically the height of the wave.

A supply plane needs to drop a package of food to scientists working on a glacier in greenland. the plane flies 100 m above the
pishuonlain [190]

The package should be dropped <u>678 m</u> short of the target.

A package dropped from a plane which is moving at a speed v, has a horizontal velocity equal to the horizontal velocity of the plane. It has a parabolic trajectory, traversing a horizontal range x while it falls through a vertical height y.

The package has no initial vertical velocity, and it falls through a height y under the action of the acceleration due to gravity g.

Use the equation,

y=\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Write an expression for t, the time taken for the package to fall through y.

t^2=\frac{2y}{g}

Substitute 100 m for y and 9.81m/s² for g.

t^2=\frac{2y}{g}\\ =\frac{2(100m)}{9.81m/s^2} \\ =20.39s^2\\ t=4.52s

In the time t  the package travels a horizontal distance x. The horizontal velocity of the package remains constant, since no force acts along the horizontal direction.

Therefore, the horizontal distance traveled by the package is given by,

x=vt\\ =(150m/s)(4.52s)\\ =678m

If the package is released <u>678m</u> before the target, the package would reach the scientists working in Greenland.

2. What mechanism would you use to safely capture emissions?
devlian [24]

Carbon capture is the safest way to capture emission.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Emission of green house gases is one of the most lurking threat above humans. So one of the best ways to reduce emission is to capture the gases like carbon di-oxide or carbon monoxide, nitrous oxide etc. So mostly, the carbon di-oxide gas which is produced as waste is captured using adsorption, absorption, chemical looping etc.

In this method, they are captured from high source points like cement factory etc and then stored in a secluded region. Thus, the adsorption of these gases and then storing them in secluded region is the best option for capturing emission.

You should be extra careful during the hours of sunrise, sunset, and nighttime because
skelet666 [1.2K]

Poor visibility, difficulties in colour perception, lessened colour contrast vision due to darker shadows and reduced peripheral vision, these are the reasons why one has to be extra careful while driving during hours of sunrise, sunset and night time.  

<h3><u> Explanation: </u></h3>

Sunrise, sunset and night time are parts of the day with minimal or absolutely no presence of sunlight. To safely navigate roads, we require enough light in order to detect presence of other vehicles, signs and pedestrians. Less sunlight during sunrise and sunset light the sky but makes the roads and vehicles have a darker, less bright view. The contrast between colours is the least, making it difficult to identify objects and see clearly.  

A rising or a setting sun can also lead to glares on the driver’s view and thus obstruct it. Since a change in ambient light is observed, our eyes need to adjust with this change and this isn’t spontaneous. Night time driving has headlight glares from approaching vehicles and reduced surrounding visibility. The eyes switching for vision adaptability from dark to bright light if vehicles approach and pass by is not a quick action. Hence the driver’s vision is compromised in every such case and this may lead to accidents.
