Its just Calcium Flouride because as you can see it is an Ionic bond (Ca is  metal and fl is a gas usually)

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When an atom donates electrons to another atom then it results in the formation of a bond known as ionic bond.

For example, atomic number of calcium is 20 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 8, 2. Whereas atomic number of fluorine is 9 and its electronic distribution is 2, 7. So, in order to attain stability calcium loses two electrons and fluorine will gain one electron.

Therefore, calcium will combine with two fluorine atoms resulting in formation of a CaF_{2} compound known as calcium fluoride.

a jetliner goes from rest to a takeoff speed of 162 mi/h in 39.5 s. what is the magnitude of its average acceleration?
irakobra [83]
Acceleration = V/t

First set velocity to m/s

V = 72.42 m/s

Now we divide velocity by time

A = 72.42/39.5
A = 1.83 m/s^2

A constant force of 2.5 N to the right acts on a 4.5 kg mass for 0.90 s.
Alborosie

Answer:

(a) v_f=0.5\frac{m}{s}

(b) v_f=-11\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

(a) Since a constant external force is applied to the body, it is under an uniformly accelerated motion. Using the following kinematic equation, we calculate the final velocity of the mass  if it is initially at rest(v_0=0):

v_f=v_0+at\\v_f=at(1)

According to Newton's second law:

F=ma\\a=\frac{F}{m}(2)

Replacing (2) in (1):

v_f=\frac{F}{m}t\\v_f=\frac{2.5N}{4.5kg}(0.9s)\\v_f=0.5\frac{m}{s}

(b) In this case we have v_0=-11.5\frac{m}{s}. So, we use the final velocity equation:

v_f=v_0+at\\v_f=v_0+\frac{F}{m}t\\v_f=-11.5\frac{m}{s}+\frac{2.5N}{4.5kg}(0.9s)\\v_f=-11\frac{m}{s}

A boy lifted a 50 newton rock 1 meter. How much work was done?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

The answer is 50 Nm

Explanation:

<h3><u>Given</u>;</h3>
  • Applied Force = 50 Newton
  • Total Displacement = 1 meter
<h3><u>To </u><u>Find</u>;</h3>
  • Work done = ?

Here,

W = F • d

W = 50 • 1

W = 50 Nm

Thus, Work done is 50 Nm

A heat engine has a maximum possible efficiency of 0.780. If it operates between a deep lake with a constant temperature of-24.8
Volgvan

Answer : The temperature of the hot reservoir (in Kelvins) is 1128.18 K

Explanation :

Efficiency of carnot heat engine : It is the ratio of work done by the system to the system to the amount of heat transferred to the system at the higher temperature.

Formula used for efficiency of the heat engine.

\eta =1-\frac{T_c}{T_h}

where,

\eta = efficiency = 0.780

T_h = Temperature of hot reservoir = ?

T_c = Temperature of cold reservoir = -24.8^oC=273+(-24.8)=248.2K

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

\eta =1-\frac{T_c}{T_h}

0.780=1-\frac{248.2K}{T_h}

T_h=1128.18K

Therefore, the temperature of the hot reservoir (in Kelvins) is 1128.18 K
