-2. This is because it is gaining electrons. Electrons are negative. Therefore it is a negative charge.

A 1000 kg car moving a 10 m/s collides with a stationary 2000 kg truck. The two vehicles interlock as a result of the collision.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

v₃ = 3.33 [m/s]

Explanation:

This problem can be easily solved using the principle of linear momentum conservation. Which tells us that momentum is preserved before and after the collision.

In this way, we can propose the following equation in which everything that happens before the collision will be located to the left of the equal sign and on the right the moment after the collision.

$(m_{1}*v_{1})+(m_{2}*v_{2})=(m_{1}+m_{2})*v_{3}$

where:

m₁ = mass of the car = 1000 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the car = 10 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the truck = 2000 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the truck = 0 (stationary)

v₃ = velocity of the two vehicles after the collision [m/s].

Now replacing:

$(1000*10)+(2000*0)=(1000+2000)*v_{3}\\v_{3}=3.33[m/s]$

What is the relationship between power and voltage

FrozenT [24]

Answer

Voltage is how fast the electrons flow. Power is a use of voltage times the volumes of electrons. The higher the voltage the more power you have with the same current.

A body which has surface area 5cm² and temperature of 727°C radiates 300J of energy in one minute. Calculate it's emissivity giv

cestrela7 [59]

<h2>Answer: 0.17</h2>

Explanation:

The Stefan-Boltzmann law establishes that a black body (an ideal body that absorbs or emits all the radiation that incides on it) "emits thermal radiation with a total hemispheric emissive power proportional to the fourth power of its temperature":

$P=\sigma A T^{4}$ (1)

Where:

$P=300J/min=5J/s=5W$ is the energy radiated by a blackbody radiator per second, per unit area (in Watts). Knowing $1W=\frac{1Joule}{second}=1\frac{J}{s}$

$\sigma=5.6703(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}}$ is the Stefan-Boltzmann's constant.

$A=5cm^{2}=0.0005m^{2}$ is the Surface area of the body

$T=727\°C=1000.15K$ is the effective temperature of the body (its surface absolute temperature) in Kelvin.

However, there is no ideal black body (ideal radiator) although the radiation of stars like our Sun is quite close. So, in the case of this body, we will use the Stefan-Boltzmann law for real radiator bodies:

$P=\sigma A \epsilon T^{4}$ (2)

Where $\epsilon$ is the body's emissivity

(the value we want to find)

Isolating $\epsilon$ from (2):

$\epsilon=\frac{P}{\sigma A T^{4}}$ (3)

Solving:

$\epsilon=\frac{5W}{(5.6703(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}})(0.0005m^{2})(1000.15K)^{4}}$ (4)

Finally:

$\epsilon=0.17$ (5) This is the body's emissivity

which element is less reactive, an element whose atoms have seven valence electrons or an element whose atoms have eight valence

Agata [3.3K]

Which element is less reactive, an element whose atoms have seven valence electrons or an element whose atoms have eight valence electrons? Why?<span>an element with 8 valence electrons because it doesn't require any additional electrons to become stable</span>
