On Earth, a cannonball with a mass of 20 kg would weigh 196 Newtons.
With the formula F=mg, where F is the weight in Newtons, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth which is 9.8m/s^2.
F=20kg x 9.8m/s^2= 196 Newtons
BUT on the moon, acceleration due to gravity is 1.6 m/s^2,
so F=mg=20kgx1.6m/s^2= 32 N
Answer:
The energy that the truck lose to air resistance per hour is 87.47MJ
Explanation:
To solve this exercise it is necessary to compile the concepts of kinetic energy because of the drag force given in aerodynamic bodies. According to the theory we know that the drag force is defined by
Our values are:
Replacing,
We need calculate now the energy lost through a time T, then,
But we know that d is equal to
Where
v is the velocity and t the time. However the time is given in seconds but for this problem we need the time in hours, so,
(per hour)
Therefore the energy that the truck lose to air resistance per hour is 87.47MJ
Answer:
B. The atom gains 1 electron, to make a total of 18 electrons.
Explanation:
Chlorine is the 17th element in the periodic table, so it has atomic number 17:
Z = 17
This means that a neutral atom of chlorine has 17 protons and 17 electrons.
When a chlorine atom gains 1 electron, its electric charge (initially zero) becomes -1, since the electron has negative charge of -1 (in elemntary charge units). This also means that the number of electrons in the ion is now
17 + 1 = 18
So the correct answer is
B. The atom gains 1 electron, to make a total of 18 electrons
Okay so don't quote me on this but I believe the answer is A) I'm saying this because B and C make no sense. and you can't change the mass of something without changing it totally.
