Answer:
Explanation:
A 40kg child throw stone of 0.5kg
At a direction of 5m/s
Recoil can be calculated using recoil of a gun formula
m_1•v_1 + m_2•v_2
m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2
The negative sign show that the momentum of the boy is directed oppositely to that of the stone
m_1 Is mass of boy
v_1 is the recoil velocity of the boy
m_2 is mass of stone
v_2 is the velocity of stone
Then,
m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2
40•v_1 = -0.5 × 5
40•v_1 = -2.5
v_1 = -2.5 / 40
v_1 = -0.0625 m/s
The recoil velocity of the boy is 0.0625 m/s
The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
The compound magnesium phosphate has the chemical formula Mg3(PO4)2. In this compound, phosphorus and oxygen act together as one charged particle, which is connected to magnesium, the other charged particle. What does the 2 mean in the formula 5Mg3(PO4)2? A. There are two elements in magnesium phosphate. B. There are two molecules of magnesium phosphate. C. There are two magnesium ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate. D. There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.
Answer:
There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.
Explanation:
The compound magnesium phosphate is an ionic compound. Ionic compounds always consists of two ions, a positive ion and a negative ion.
In this case, the positive ion is Mg^2+ while the negative ion is PO4^3-.
The subscript, 2 after the formula of the phosphate ion means that there are two phosphate ions in each formula unit of magnesium phosphate.
Answer:
mass = 9.7 kg
Explanation:
Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity (g)
16.5 = mass x 1.7
mass = = 9.7 kg
Answer:
a. 299,792,458 m/s
Explanation:
Since the speed of light in a vacuum is invariant and has the value of 299,792,458 m/s, we would measure this value of 299,792,458 m/s for the speed of light from the star as it arrives on Earth.
