When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion?

2 answers:

3 0

If a potassium atom loses one electron than it becomes a +1 charge, because the electrons are negative and the nucleus is positive (the positive comes from the protons). The protons and electrons balance out so it has a neutral charge, but if the atom loses an electrons it has a positive charge, but if the atom gains an electron than it becomes negative. the charge (+/- and the number) of the atom depends on how many electron the atom gains/loses.
the answer is (D.) +1

I hope this helps.

What is the equation for finding the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line?

lapo4ka [179]

The equations to find the acceleration are the suvat equations:

$v=u+at\\s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\s=vt-\frac{1}{2}at^2\\v^2-u^2=2as\\s=(\frac{u+v}{2})t$

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is the rate if change in velocity of the object. It is calculated as

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

v is the final velocity of the object

u is the initial velocity

t is the time elapsed

For an object moving in a straight line at constant acceleration, there are several equations that can be used to find the acceleration: they are called suvat equations. They are the following:

$v=u+at\\s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\s=vt-\frac{1}{2}at^2\\v^2-u^2=2as\\s=(\frac{u+v}{2})t$

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time

s is the distance covered

a is the acceleration

Therefore, any of the above equations can be used to calculate the acceleration.

Can someone help me?!!!!!

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The first option, the walker traveled 360m more than the actual distance between the start and the end points.

Why?

Since each block is 180 m long, we need to calculate the vertical and the horizontal distance, in order to calculate how farther did the travel walk between the start and the end points (displacement).

So, calculating we have:

Traveler:

$Distance=NorthCoveredDistance+EastCoveredDistance$

$Distance=4*180m+3*180m=720m+540m=1260m$

Actual distance between the start and the end point (displacement):

$ActualDistance=\sqrt{NorthDistance+EastDistance}\\\\ActualDistance=\sqrt{NorthDistance^{2} +EastDistance^{2}}\\\\ActualDistance=\sqrt{(720m)^{2} +(540m)^{2}}\\\\ActualDistance=\sqrt{518400m^{2} +291600m^{2}}\\\\ActualDistance=\sqrt{810000m^{2}}=900m$

Now, to calculate how much farter did the traveler walk, we need to use the following equation:

$DistanceDifference=WalkerCoveredDistance-ActualDistance\\\\DistanceDifference=1260m-900m=360m$

Therefore, we have that distance differnce between the distance covered by the walker and the actual distance is 360m.

Hence, we have that the walker traveled 360m more than the actual distance between the start point and the end point.

Have a nice day!

a ball is thrown striaght up in the air and then falls back to earth. if the downward fall takes 2.2s, how fast is the ball trav

lapo4ka [179]

The velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground, given the data is 21.56 m/s

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time to reach ground from maximum height (t) = 2.2 s
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Final velocity (v) =?

<h3>How to determine the velocity when the ball strikes the ground</h3>

The velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground can be obtained as illustrated below:

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 2.2)

v = 0 + 21.56

v = 21.56 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground is 21.56 m/s
