The mass of magnesium oxide must be 40 grams

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that the total mass of the reactant in a chemical reaction must be equal to the total mass of the products after the reaction has completed.

In this problem, we have:

Reactants:

Magnesium metal (mass: 24 grams)

Oxygen gas (mass: 16 grams)

Products:

Magnesium oxide (mass: ?)

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the magnesium oxide must be equal to the sum of the mass of the magnesium metal and the oxygen gass. Therefore:

Mass (magnesium oxide) = 24 g + 16 g = 40 g

An electric motor is connected to a battery. The current flows through brushes to a commutator ring, which is attached to a elec
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Commutator is a ring which reverse the direction of current in AC circuit so that the coil connected to it will continuous to move in the same direction.

Explanation:

In motors there exist a coil which is rotated due to torque of magnetic field when current flow through it. Since AC current is used to run the motor so we know that AC current changes its direction after half cycle.

So here commutator plays an important role to reverse the direction of current after every half cycle so that the current goes in same direction always into the coil.

This will produce a constant direction torque on the coil so that it will rotate in same sense always.

So commutator role is to provide same direction current to the coil by reversing its direction after every half cycle

Explain the universal law of gravity and it's calculate from as well as the value of g​
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

According to the Newton's law of gravitational every object in the universe attracts every other objects with a force which is called gravitational force.This gravitational force is (i) directly proportional to the product of their masses and (ii) inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centres.

Explanation:

Newton's law of gravitational is called the universal law because it is applicable to all the bodies either terrestrial or celestial having any shape,size,mass or at any distance apart with any medium between them,at any time(past,present or future).

A particle moves horizontally in uniform circular motion, over a horizontal xy plane. At one instant, it moves through the point
seropon [69]

since centripetal acceleration is always towards the center of the circle

so at the given position where speed and acceleration is given the center coordinate will be towards the center of circle

also we know that

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

11.6 = \frac{2.5^2}{R}

R = 0.54 m

so the coordinates of the center will be

(x, y) = (3.20 , (3.5 + 0.54))

(x, y) = (3.20, 4.04)

so the coordinate is (3.20 m, 4.04 m)

If a 0.15 kg ball falls and has a KE of 20 J just before striking the ground, from what height did it fall. A. 1.36m B. 3m C. 13
RUDIKE [14]
According to the conservation of mechanical energy, the kinetic energy just before the ball strikes the ground is equal to the potential energy just before it fell. 

Therefore, we can say KE = PE
We know that PE = m·g·h

Which means KE = m·g·h

We can solve for h:

h = KE / m·g
   = 20 / (0.15 · 9.8) 
   = 13.6m

The correct answer is: the ball has fallen from a height of 13.6m.
