<h3>Answer;</h3>

<em>Donate </em>

An ionic bond forms between sodium and chlorine when the sodium atoms <u>donate </u>elections

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Ionic bond is a type of bonds that results from transfers of electrons from one atom to another. This types of bond is formed between metals and non metals.
Metals lose electrons to form cations (positively charged ion) and non metals gain electrons forming anions, negatively charged ion.
In this case, sodium donates and electron to chlorine atom, thus they both achieve a stable electronic configuration forming ions.

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 10 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed

Mashutka [201]

(a)

consider the motion of the tennis ball. lets assume the velocity of the tennis ball going towards the racket as positive and velocity of tennis ball going away from the racket as negative.

m = mass of the tennis ball = 60 g = 0.060 kg

v₀ = initial velocity of the tennis ball before being hit by racket = 20 m/s

v = final velocity of the tennis ball after being hit by racket = - 39 m/s

ΔP = change in momentum of the ball

change in momentum of the ball is given as

ΔP = m (v - v₀)

inserting the above values

ΔP = (0.060) (- 39 - 20)

ΔP = - 3.54 kgm/s

hence , magnitude of change in momentum : 3.54 kgm/s
