Answer: sodium phosphide

Explanation:

$Na_3P$ is an ionic compound because sodium is a metal which forms $Na^+$ by loss of electron.

Phosphorous is a non-metal and The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive is written first.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.

Hence, the name of $Na_3P$ is sodium phosphide.

Answer:

d = 3.5*10^4 m

Explanation:

In order to calculate the displacement of the airplane you need only the information about the initial position and final position of the airplane. THe initial position is at the origin (0,0,0) and the final position is given by the following vector:

$\vec{r}=(1.21*10^3\hat{i}+3.45*10^4\hat{j})m$

The displacement of the airplane is obtained by using the general form of the Pythagoras theorem:

$d=\sqrt{(x-x_o)^2+(y-y_o)^2}$ (1)

where x any are the coordinates of the final position of the airplane and xo and yo the coordinates of the initial position. You replace the values of all variables in the equation (1):

$d=\sqrt{(1.12*10^3-0)^2+(3.45*10^4-0)^2}=3.45*10^4m$

hence, the displacement of the airplane is 3.45*10^4 m

In a tug-of-war game on one campus, 15 students pull on a rope at both ends in an effort to displace the central knot to one sid

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Net pull = 110 N to the left

Explanation:

Group the different pulls according to the direction (right or left)

2 pull 196 N each to the right

4 pull 98 N each to the left

5 pull 62 N each to the left

3 pull 150 N each to the right

1 pull 250 N to the left

Since positive direction is to the right, the pulls to the left will have a minus (-)

$Net Force= 2(196)+4(-98)+5(-62)+3(150)+1(-250) \\Net Force = -110$

The resulting force is negative, meaning the direction is to the left

A milk truck carries milk with density 64.6 lb/ft3 in a horizontal cylindrical tank with diameter 12 ft. (a) Find the force exer

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

F = 351×10³lb

Explanation:

Given the density

ρg = 64.6lb/ft³

Diameter d = 12ft

The tank is horizontally cylindrical. The vertical distance from the top to the bottom of the tank is h = 12ft

The pressure in the tank is

P = ρgh = 64.6 × 12 = 775.2lb/ft²

The force exerted on one end of the tank is therefore F = PA = 775.2 × πd² = 775.2π×12²

F = 351×10³lb.
