Answer:

add a subscript of 4 after the O

Explanation:

The chemical formula of a compound is said to contain the elements in that compound with the respective number of atoms in each element. When writing chemical formula of a compound, the chemical symbols of each comprising element must be known. In this case involving Phosphorus tetraoxide, the symbols of the elements in this compound has been identified as P for Phosphorus and O for oxygen.

After identification of elemental symbols in the compound, Sebastian must now allocate the number of atoms that each element contains. According to the name of the compound, TETRA preceding oxygen means four (4), hence, four will be added as a subscript to O. Hence, at the end, the chemical formula will be PO4.

Please note that, the order of the chemical formula will go as the name implies Phosphorus tetraoxide, so phosphorus symbol (P) comes first, followed by oxygen symbol (O)

The object is not moving.

My explanation is that say if you sit a ball on the table and it is a smooth surface with no bumps or anything. The ball will sit still since it can’t roll unless you hit it.

Hope this helps!

A charge of 4.4 10-6 C is located in a uniform electric field of intensity 3.9 105 N/C. How much work (in Joules) is required to
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The work required to move this charge is 0.657 J

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of charge, q = 4.4 x 10⁻⁶ C

Electric field strength, E =  3.9 x 10⁵ N/C

distance moved by the charge, d = 50 cm = 0.5m

angle of the path, θ = 40°

Work done is given as;

W = Fd

W = FdCosθ

where;

F is the force on the charge;

According the coulomb's law;

F = Eq

F = 3.9 x 10⁵ x 4.4 x 10⁻⁶  = 1.716 N

W = FdCosθ

W = 1.716 x 0.5 x Cos40

W = 0.657 J

Therefore, the work required to move this charge is 0.657 J

A pump is used to transport water to a higher reservoir. if the water temperature is 15ºc, determine the lowest pressure that ca
Reika [66]
Normally, the water pressure inside a pump is higher than the vapor pressure: in this case, at the interface between the liquid and the vapor, molecules from the liquid escapes into vapour form. Instead, when the pressure of the water becomes lower than the vapour pressure, molecules of vapour can go inside the water forming bubbles: this phenomenon is called cavitation. 

So, cavitation occurs when the pressure of the water becomes lower than the vapour pressure. In our problem, vapour pressure at 15^{\circ} is 1.706 kPa. Therefore, the lowest pressure that can exist in the pump without cavitation, at this temperature, is exactly this value: 1.706 kPa.

How long was a 60 W light bulb turned on if it used a total of 580 J of energy?
icang [17]
Here's the tool you need.  You can't answer the question without this:

           "1 watt"
means
           "1 joule of energy, generated, used, or moved, every second".

So      60 watts  =  60 joules per second

           Total energy generated,
            used, or moved                  = (power) x (time).

                                     580 joules  =  (60 watts) x (time)

Divide each side
by  (60 watts):              Time  =  (580 joules) / (60 joules/sec) 

                                               =  (9 and 2/3)  seconds  .

Why the unit of power is called derived unit? <br>​
Lilit [14]
A :-) it was given the name Newton (N). from this, the derived unit of energy (or work) is defined ,as the work produced when the unit of force causes a displacement equal to the unit of length of its point of application along its direction . It was given the name Joule (J).
