When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion?

Physics
1 answer:
fomenos3 years ago
6 0
The correct answer is answer choice C. +1. Since electrons have negative charges, losing one electron will cause the atom to have a positive charge of 1. This charge comes from the protons, which, until one electron was lost, balanced out the negative charge of the electrons and caused the atom to be neutral.

Determine the kinetic energy of a 1000 kg roller coaster car that is moving with speed of 40.0 m/s​
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

KE=800,000

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is KE=1/2mv^2 or Kinetic Energy= 0.5*mass*velocity^2

so 1000 is the mass and 40 is the velocity

KE=0.5*1000*40^2

KE=0.5*1,000*1,600

KE=800,000 Joules

One of the longer sides of a kite is 39 feet. one of the shorter sides is 25 feet. half the length of the shorter diagonal is 15
pychu [463]
The area of a triangle is found by multiplying the height of the triangle by the length of the base and dividing them both by 2. The length of the shorter side in the equation is useless information, so just multiply 39 by 25 and divide that by 2. A=487.5 sq ft. Also, that's a pretty big kite.

The total resistance of a 15-ohm, an 65-ohm and a 35-ohm resistor connected in parallel ​
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

I think its 9.0397 Ohms

Explanation:

take the reciprocal of all the resistances: 1/15, 1/65, 1/35

then add them: = 151/1365

then reciprocal the answer: =1365/151

And chuck it on a calculator: =9.04 Ohms

I think this is right but I'm not entirely sure. Tell me if I'm right by the way!

Ted William drops a ball from 14.5 meter to a desk that is 1.9 meters tall. What is the final speed of the ball right before it
makkiz [27]

Answer:

15.7m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we use the right motion equation.

 Here, we have been given the height through which the ball drops;

 Height of drop = 14.5m - 1.9m  = 12.6m

The right motion equation is;

      V²  = U² + 2gh

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity  = 0

g is the acceleration due to gravity  = 9.8m/s²

h is the height

  Now insert the parameters and solve;

       V² = 0² + 2 x 9.8 x 12.6

      V²  = 246.96

       V = √246.96  = 15.7m/s

Which statement best explains the relationship between the electric force between two charged objects and the distance between t
spin [16.1K]
Unfortunately, the given statements are missing from the problem. However, we can still determine the relationship between the electric force between two objects and the distance between them. The formula for the electric force is given below:

F = (k*Q1*Q2)/d^2

k is a constant, while Q1 and Q2 are the respective charges of the objects. F is force, while d is distance.

As seen in the formula, we can see that the electric force F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.
