Describe the electron transfers that occur in the formation of calcium fluoride from elemental calcium and elemental fluorine.

Physics
1 answer:
boyakko [2]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Check explanation

Explanation:

In the formation of calcium fluoride we take calcium and fluorine.

in elemental form calcium exist in solid form and fluorine in gaseous form.

formation of compound takes place to complete their octet, in case of calcium  need to remove two electron and need to add one elecron in fluorine to complete their octet so two electron will ransferred from calcium to two fluorine atom.

An isolated conducting sphere has a 10 cm radius. One wire carries a current of 1.000 002 0 A into it. Another wire carries a cu
romanna [79]

Answer:

t = 5.56 ms

Explanation:

Given:-

- The current carried in, Iin = 1.000002 C

- The current carried out, Iout = 1.00000 C

- The radius of sphere, r = 10 cm

Find:-

How long would it take for the sphere to increase in potential by 1000 V?

Solution:-

- The net charge held by the isolated conducting sphere after (t) seconds would be:

                                   qnet = (Iin - Iout)*t

                                   qnet = t*(1.000002 - 1.00000) = 0.000002*t

- The Volt potential on the surface of the conducting sphere according to Coulomb's Law derived result is given by:

                                   V = k*qnet / r

Where,                        k = 8.99*10^9   ..... Coulomb's constant

                                   qnet = V*r / k

                                   t = 1000*0.1 / (8.99*10^9 * 0.000002)

                                   t = 5.56 ms

If we increase the force applied to an object, and all other factors remain the same, the amount of work will
soldier1979 [14.2K]
The question doesn't give us enough information to answer.
The answer depends on the mass of the object, how long the force
acts on the object, the OTHER forces on the object, and whether the
object is free to move.

-- If you increase the force with which you push on a brick wall,
the amount of work done remains unchanged, namely Zero.

-- If you push on a pingpong ball with a force of 1 ounce for 1 second,
the ball accelerates substantially, it moves a substantial distance, and
so the work done is substantial.

-- But if you push on a battleship, even with a much bigger force ...
let's say 1 pound ... and keep pushing for a month ... the ship accelerates
microscopically, moves a microscopic distance, and the work done by
your force is microscopic.

Describe what happens to radiant energy once it enters the atmosphere? How does Radiant energy cause weather?
Triss [41]
Once energy from the Sun gets to Earth, several things can happen to it:

Energy can be scattered or absorbed by aerosols in the atmosphere. Aerosols are dust, soot, sulfates and nitric oxides. When aerosols absorb energy, the atmosphere becomes warmer. When aerosols scatter energy, the atmosphere is cooled.
Short wavelengths are absorbed by ozone in the stratosphere.
Clouds may act to either reflect energy out to space or absorb energy, trapping it in the atmosphere.
The land and water at Earth's surface may act to either reflect energy or absorb it. Light colored surfaces are more likely to reflect sunlight, while dark surfaces typically absorb the energy, warming the planet.
Albedo is the percentage of the Sun's energy that is reflected back by a surface. Light colored surfaces like ice have a high albedo, while dark colored surfaces tend to have a lower albedo. The buildings and pavement in cities have such a low albedo that cities have been called "heat islands" because they absorb so much energy that they warm up.
