Matter can be many things, but is mostly made of atoms. Atoms are small things that cannot be seen directly, as lights either passes through it or alters it. However, we know that atoms are made of 3 parts, those being the proton, neutron, and electron.

Protons have a positive electromagnetic charge.

Neutrons have no charge.

Electrons have a negative charge equal to the protons positive charge.

Protons and neutrons make up what's called the nucleus, which is orbited by the electrons.

Protons and neutrons also share another thing in common, that being their composition.

Until relatively recently, we thought that these were the smallest particles in the universe, and indestructible. However, modern discoveries have revealed that they are actually made of quarks and gluons.

These are actually indestructible, being part of the group that is elementary particles.

Answer:

20000 W

Explanation:

Power: This can be defined as the rate at which energy is dissipated or used. The S.I unit of power is Watt(W).

The expression of power is given as,

P = E/t.............................. Equation 1

Where P = power, E = Energy, t = time.

Given: E = 200 J, t = 0.01 s

Substitute into equation 1

P = 200/0.01

P = 20000 W.

Hence the average power = 20000 W

If some electrons are transferred from object A to object B,
Igoryamba

Answer: A. Object A will have a positive charge.

Explanation: If the number of protons and electrons are the same, their net charges cancel each other out, and you have a neutral charge. If electrons are transferred to another object, the amount of positive charge will outweigh the amount of negative charge. As a result, you are left with an overall positive charge in object A. Meanwhile, object B is now negative.
