You name binary ionic compounds by naming the first element or the ___ first,

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

cation, anion

Explanation:

Binary Ionic Compounds- Binary means 2, ionic relates to charges. Therefore binary ionic compounds have TWO elements, with charges that cancel eachother out. The cation (or positive charge) goes before the anion (or negative charge)

example:

NaCl

Na^+1

Cl^-1

Sodium Chloride

A piece of taffy slams into and sticks to another identical piece of taffy that is at rest. The momentum of the two pieces stuck

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

C. 50%

Explanation:

Lets consider that the mass of taffy is m and its initial velocity is u and final velocity is v. Momentum is conserved so we can write it as,

$mu = 2mv\\v = \frac{u}{2} \\$

The initial kinetic energy = $\frac{mu^{2} }{2}$

As the Kinetic energy partly converted into heat.

The final kinetic energy = $\frac{m(\frac{u}{2})^{2} }{2}$ = $\frac{mu^{2} }{4}$

Change in the kinetic energy = $\frac{mu^{2} }{2} - \frac{mu^{2} }{4} = \frac{mu^{2} }{4}$

now we can determine the fraction of kinetic energy that has turned into heat

= $\frac{Heat energy}{initial K.E}$ = $\frac{\frac{mu^{2} }{4} }{\frac{mu^{2} }{2} } = 1/2$

= 50%

Why is a steam burn more damaging than a burn from boiling water at the same temperature?

maksim [4K]

The phase change (from gas to liquid) that the steam undergoes right when it touches your skin releases a lot of energy right onto your skin so it burns a ton. The boiling water would just burn you until it reaches the same temperature as your skin.

You can jump 3 m (10 feet) off of a diving board and into a swimming pool and be uninjured. However, if you jumped from the same

Mrac [35]

Answer:

1) this is due to force due to momentum change of a body falling from such a height.

2) they move with velocity of 2.69 m/s towards the right.

Explanation:

1) in the case where one jumps 3 meters into water, the water deform on impact extending the time of impact for your body's momentum to get to zero, so that the time it takes for the momentum of your body due to your mass and your velocity to get to zero is relatively long lessening the force felt due to the impact.

For a fall from the same height onto a concrete, the concrete does not deform at all. This means that there is a very short time for your momentum to get to zero and hence the force is huge. In order to cushion this a little, your body deforms in a bid to reduce the force and this is very deadly.

This is in line with Newton's second law of motion which states that the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the force produced.

M1 = 125 kg

M2 = 80 kg

V1 = 2.5 m/s

V2 = 3 m/s

From momentum conservation, total initial momentum must be equal to the total momentum after collision.

Momentum = mass x velocity.

That is,

M1V1 + M2V2 = (M1 + M2) Vf

Where Vf is their final velocity together.

Note that the masses stick together because the collision is inelastic.

Substituting and solving, we have

(125 x 2.5) + (80 x 3) = (125 + 80)Vf

312.5 + 240 = 205Vf

552.5 = 205Vf

Vf = 552.5/205 = 2.69 m/s

Note that the linebacker runner has the greater momentum 125 x 2.5 = 312.15

This means they both move to the right at velocity of 2.69 m/s
