Why are there two fluoride ions in magnesium fluoride but only one fluoride ion in lithium fluoride
postnew [5]
This would be more of a chemistry question. Remember magnesium has a charge of 2+, and would need to hand off its two extra electrons. Fluorine can only take one electron at a time, so there needs to be two fluorines to take one magnesium's 2 electrons. 

With lithium, it has a +1 charge, so it has one extra electron, which it can hand off to just 1 fluorine atom. 

Another way of looking at this is: Mg^{2+} + 2F^{-} = MgF2  (the charges must balance out to zero)

Li^{+} + F^{-} = LiF (the charges balance out to zero)

A cube has a drag coefficient of 0.8. what would be the terminal velocity of a sugar cube 1 cm on a side in air (ρ = 1.2 kg/m3)?
kramer
To answer this question, we should know the formula for the terminal velocity. The formula is written below:

v = √(2mg/ρAC)
where
m is the mass
g is 9.81 m/s²
ρ is density
A is area
C is the drag coefficient

Let's determine the mass, m, to be density*volume.
Volume = s³ = (1 cm*1 m/100 cm)³ = 10⁻⁶ m³
m = (1.6×10³ kg/m³)(10⁻⁶ m³) = 1.6×10⁻³ kg
A = (1 cm * 1 m/100 cm)² = 10⁻⁴ m²

v = √(2*1.6×10⁻³ kg*9.81 m/s²/1.6×10³ kg/m³*10⁻⁴ m²*0.8)
<em>v = 0.495 m/s</em>

an athlete in a hammer-throw event swings a 7.0-kilogram hammer in a horizontal circle at a constant speed of 12 meters per seco
Semenov [28]

Answer:

ac = 72 m/s²

Fc = 504 N

Explanation:

We can find the centripetal acceleration of the hammer by using the following formula:

a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}

where,

ac = centripetal acceleration = ?

v = constant speed = 12 m/s

r = radius = 2 m

Therefore,

a_c = \frac{(12\ m/s)^2}{2\ m}

<u>ac = 72 m/s²</u>

<u></u>

Now, the centripetal force applied by the athlete on the hammer will be:

F_c = ma_c\\F_c = (7\ kg)(72\ m/s^2)

<u>Fc = 504 N</u>
