No mate. Ca denotes calcium. Ca3 means three calcium atoms. N denotes nitrogen. N2 denotes two nitrogen atoms

No, there are not any carbon atoms inside this compound.

The compound is $Ca_3N_2$ . This means there are 3 "Ca" atoms and 2 "N" atoms.

Ca is calcium
N is nitrogen

Thus, none of the elements in this compound are carbon, meaning there are no carbon atoms. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

As more and more resistors are added in parallel to a circuit, the equivalent resistance of the circuit ____________ (increases,

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Decreases, Increases

Explanation:

Resistance is parallel can be calculated using

1/Req = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 +....

Then, as more resistor is added in parallel the equivalent resistance is reduced.

Let use a simple sample

Let all the resistor have equal resistances

Let say R = R1 = R2 = R3 =...Rn

Then, 1/Req = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 +....

1/Req = 1/R + 1/R + 1/R +.... 1/Rn

Req = R/n

Check attachment on how I got that.

This implies that, the equivalent resistance will always be less than the original resistance, since n>1

So, as n increases (I.e. as the number of resistance increases), the equivalent resistance reduces.

B. Now, to know if the current reduces or increases

Using Ohms law

V = iR

Then, I = V/R

So, let assume the voltage is constant, then, the current is inversely proportional to the resistance, so as we know that the resistance is reducing, then the current will be increasing.

So current increase as we add more resistor in parallel to a circuit

Fluid pressure changes with depth are assumed to be linear. Which statement best explains why this does not hold true for atmosp

ankoles [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pressure due to fluid is directly proportional to the depth of fluid, density of the fluid and the value of acceleration due to gravity.

P = h d g

Where, h is the depth, d be the density and g be the acceleration due to gravity.

If we talk about teh atmospheric pressure, the density of air goes on decreasing as we go up and up. o we cannot say that it is directly depends only on the depth of air, it also depends on the changing density of air.

Calculate the distance traveled by a projectile as a function of launch angle. Compare the distances for two projectiles launche

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

$R = x_{max} = \frac{v^2\sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{\sin(2\theta_1}{\sin(2\theta_2}$

Explanation:

Using kinematics equations:

$\Delta x = v_{0x}t\\\Delta y = -\frac{1}{2}gt^2+v_{0y}t$

Use $\Delta y = 0$ due to condition of distance traveled.

Solving second equation for time, there are two solutions. t=0 and

$t=\frac{2v_{0y}}{g}$

Use the expression in the first equation to have

$R = \frac{2v^2 \cos\theta\sin\theta}{g}$

Using trigonometric identities, you have the answer of the distance.

By doing the ratio for two different angles, you have the second answer. Due to sine function properties, the distances can be the same to complementary angles. Example, for 20° and 70°, the distance is the same.

A skater slides across the ice with an initial velocity of 5.0 m/s. She slows 10 points

zvonat [6]

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial velocity of a skater is, u = 5 m/s

She slows to a velocity of 2 m/s over a distance of 20 m.

We can find the acceleration of skater. It is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So, it can be calculated using third equation of motion as follows :

$v^2-u^2=2as$
