Answer: Magnesium Nitride

Explanation:

The formula of Magnesium Nitride is given as Mg₃N₂

3 Mg + N₂→ Mg₃N₂

Magnesium forms cation with 2+ charge and nitrogen forms anion with 3- charge.

Hence, by criss-cross method, the compound formed will be Mg₃N₂

Mg₃N₂ is an ionic compound because magnesium element is a metal and Nitrogen element is a non-metal.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive ion i.e. cation name is written first.

2. The name of the negative ion i.e. anion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the cation. The suffix written is '-ide'.

Thus, the name of Mg₃N₂ is Magnesium Nitride.

What is the pair of vectors if summed , would create of equilibrium (a resultant of 0i + 0j) ?

bogdanovich [222]

ANY pair of vectors can produce that resultant, as long as ...

If one of the vectors is V₁ = A i + B j . . . . . . where 'A' and 'B' are any two numbers,

then the other one is V₂ = -A i - B j

A dinner plate falls vertically to the floor and breaks up into three pieces, which slide horizontally along the floor. Immediat

N76 [4]

Answer:

p_k=\sqrt{p_x^2+p_y^2}}

Explanation:

Apply the momentum in each direction knowing that the impact is at the same time for the pieces so

$p_x=m_1*v_1$

$p_x=200g*2.0m/s=0.4kgm/s$

$p_y=m_2*v_2$

$p_y=235g*1.5m/s=0.3525kgm/s$

So the momentum in the other piece can be find knowing that

$p_x^2+p_y^2=p_k^2$

So:

$p_k=\sqrt{p_x^2+p_y^2}}$

$p_k=\sqrt{0.4^2+0.3525^2}}=\sqrt{0.2842 kg^2*m^2/s^2}$

$p_k=0.5331kg*m/s$

To find the velocity knowing the mass

$p_k=m_k*v_k$

$v_k=\frac{p_k}{m_k}=\frac{0.5331 kg*m/s}{0.10kg}$

$v_k=5.331 m/s$

A window in a house has a rectangular shape of 2.0 m by 1.0 m. The glass in the window is 0.5 cm thick, with a thermal conductiv

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

P = 5280 W

Explanation:

The conductivity of the materials determines that heat flows from the hot part to the cold part, the equation for thermal conductivity transfer is

P = Q / t = k A ( $T_{h}$ - $T_{c}$ ) / L

Where k is the thermal conductivity of the glass 0.8 W / ºC, A the area of the window, T the temperature and L is glass thickness

Let's calculate the window area

A = l * a

A = 2.0 1.0

A = 2.0 m²

Let's replace

L = 0.5 cm (1 m / 100 cm) = 0.005 m

P = 0.8 2 (20.5 - 4) / 0.005

P = 5280 W
