How does losing an electron result in a positive charge?

Physics
1 answer:
AlekseyPX3 years ago
3 0
A proton has a positive charge, an electron has a negative charge. Usually, the amount of electrons and protons is the same, but when an electron is lost usually because of radiation or a chemical reaction the resulting amount of electrons/ protons results in a different charge for the atom in general.
When there are more electrons the result it a negative ion, and when there are more protons it is a positive ion. 
So, to answer your question: if an electron is lost from a neutral atom and there are more protons than electrons you get a positive charge. Have a good day!

Suppose a rock is dropped off a cliff with an initial speed of 0m/s. What is the rocks speed after 5 secounds, in m/s, if it enc
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The rock's speed after 5 seconds is 98 m/s.

Explanation:

A rock is dropped off a cliff.

It had an initial velocity of 0 m/s. And now it is moving downwards under the influence of gravitational force with the gravitational acceleration of 9.8 m/s².

Speed after 5 seconds = V

We know that acceleration = average speed/time

In our case,

g = ((0+V)/2)/5

9.8*5 = V/2

=> V = 2*9.8*5

V = 98 m/s

a ball is thrown inclined in to the air with a initial velocity of u. if it reaches the maximum height in 6 seconds , find the r
olga55 [171]

Answer:

11:1

Explanation:

At constant acceleration, an object's position is:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

Given y₀ = 0, v₀ = u, and a = -g:

y = u t − ½g t²

After 6 seconds, the ball reaches the maximum height (v = 0).

v = at + v₀

0 = (-g)(6) + u

u = 6g

Substituting:

y = 6g t − ½g t²

The displacement between t=0 and t=1 is:

Δy = [ 6g (1) − ½g (1)² ] − [ 6g (0) − ½g (0)² ]

Δy = 6g − ½g

Δy = 5½g

The displacement between t=6 and t=7 is:

Δy = [ 6g (7) − ½g (7)² ] − [ 6g (6) − ½g (6)² ]

Δy = (42g − 24½g) − (36g − 18g)

Δy = 17½g − 18g

Δy = -½g

So the ratio of the distances traveled is:

(5½g) / (½g)

11 / 1

The ratio is 11:1.

When water is boiled under a pressure of 2.00atm, the heat of vaporization is 2.20×106J/kg and the boiling point is 120∘C. At th
Vikki [24]

Answer:

2033219.05 J

Explanation:

V = Volume

P = Pressure = 2 atm

m = Mass of water = 1 kg

L_v = Heat of vaporization = 2.2\times 10^6\ J/kg

Work done in an isobaric system is given by

W=-P\Delta V\\\Rightarrow W=-2\times 101325\times (1\times 10^{-3}-0.824)\\\Rightarrow W=166780.95\ J

Work done is 166780.95 J

Change in internal energy is given by

\Delta U=Q-W

Heat is given by

Q=mL_v\\\Rightarrow Q=1\times 2.2\times 10^6\\\Rightarrow Q=2.2\times 10^6\ J

\Delta U=2.2\times 10^6-166780.95\\\Rightarrow \Delta U=2033219.05\ J

The increase in internal energy of the water is 2033219.05 J
