What happens when you change the number of electrons in an atom

aalyn [17]

<h2>Answer: It becomes an Ion </h2>

When an atom has gained or lost electrons (negative charge), it becomes an ion.

In this sense:

<h2>Ions are atoms that have <u>gained or lost</u> electrons in their electronic cortex. </h2><h2> </h2>

If a neutral atom <u>loses electrons</u>, it remains with an excess of positive charge and transforms into a positive ion or <u>cation</u>, whereas if a neutral atom <u>gains electrons</u>, it acquires an excess of negative charge and transforms into a negative ion or <u>anion</u>.

It is then how ions form bonds with other atoms differently depending on the number of electrons they have.

Monochromatic light from a distant source is incident on a slit 0.750 mm wide. On a screen 2.00 m away, the distance from the ce

jasenka [17]

Answer:

$\lambda= 506.25 nm$

Explanation:

Diffraction is observed when a wave is distorted by an obstacle whose dimensions are comparable to the wavelength. The simplest case corresponds to the Fraunhofer diffraction, in which the obstacle is a long, narrow slit, so we can ignore the effects of extremes.

This is a simple case, in which we can use the Fraunhofer single slit diffraction equation:

$y=\frac{m \lambda D}{a}$

Where:

$y=Displacement\hspace{3}from\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} centerline \hspace{3}for \hspace{3}minimum\hspace{3} intensity =1.35mm\\\lambda=Light\hspace{3} wavelength \\D=Distance\hspace{3}between\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}screen\hspace{3}and\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}slit=2m\\a=width\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}slit=0.750mm\\m=Order\hspace{3}number=1$

Solving for λ:

$\lambda=\frac{y*a}{mD}$

Replacing the data provided by the problem:

$\lambda=\frac{(1.35\times 10^{-3})*(0.750\times 10^{-3})}{1*2} =5.0625\times 10^{-7}m =506.25nm$

The World-War II battleship U.S.S Massachusetts used 16-inch guns whose barrel lengths were 15 m long. The shells each of mass 1

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel is 23437500 newtons.

Explanation:

Let suppose that shells are not experiencing any effect from non-conservative forces (i.e. friction, air viscosity) and changes in gravitational potential energy are negligible. The explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel can be estimated by Work-Energy Theorem, represented by the following formula:

$F\cdot \Delta s = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot (v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2})$ (1)

Where:

$F$ - Explosive force, measured in newtons.

$\Delta s$ - Barrel length, measured in meters.

$m$ - Mass of the shell, measured in kilograms.

$v_{o}$ , $v_{f}$ - Initial and final speeds of the shell, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $m = 1250\,kg$ , $v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v_{f} = 750\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $\Delta s = 15\,m$ , then the explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel is:
