Why is the chemical formula magnesium sulfide written as MgS and NOT Mg2S2?

Because you need only 1 atom of magnesium and 1 atom of sulfur to produce magnesium sulfate. Writing a two after each is not correct as that would be dimagnesium disulfide.

In electronic circuits:______.
trapecia [35]

Answer:

(a), (c) and (e) s correct.

Explanation:

a. the power used by a circuit is the resistance times the current squared.

The power is given by P = I^2 R, so the statement is correct.  

b. electric and magnetic fields are transporting the energy.

false

c. electrons are transporting the energy.

The energy is transferred by flow of electrons. It is correct.  

d. the power used by a circuit is the voltage times the current squared.

The power is given by P  = V I, the statement is wrong.  

e. the power used by a circuit is the current times the voltage.

The power is given by P  = V I, the statement is correct.

He distance between two consecutive crests is 2.5 meters. Which characteristic of the wave does this distance represent? amplitu
kupik [55]

Frequency is measured in units of reciprocal time.
Period is measured in units of time.
Phase is a number without units that represents a fraction of a wave.

None of these is measured in meters, so none of them can be the answer.
It must be either amplitude or wavelength.

Amplitude is a quantity that's measured at one or two points in the same wave.
The question is talking about points on consecutive waves.

<em>Wavelength is</em> the only choice left.  That must be it.

A man on the moon with a mass of 90 kilograms weighs 146 newtons. The radius of the moon is 1.74 x 106 meters, find the mass of
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

7.36 × 10^22 kg

Explanation:

Mass of the man = 90kg

Weight on the moon = 146N

radius of the moon =1.74×10^6

Weight =mg

g= weight/mass

g= 146/90 = 1.62m/s^2

From the law of gravitational force

g = GM/r^2

Where G = 6.67 ×10^-11

M = gr^2/G

M= 1.62 × (1.74×10^6)^2/6.67×10^-11

= 4.904×10^12/6.67×10^-11

=0.735×10^23

M= 7.35×10^22kg. (approximately) with option c
