Answer:

The electron tends to go to the region of 4. higher electric potential.

Explanation:

When a charged particle is immersed in an electric field, it experiences a force given by

F=qE

where

q is the charge of the particle

E is the electric field

The direction of the force depends on the sign of the charge. In particular:

- The force and the electric field have the same direction if the charge is positive

- The force and the electric field have opposite directions if the charge is negative

Therefore, an electron (negative charge) moves in the direction opposite to the electric field lines.

However, electric field lines go from points at higher potential to points at lower potential: so, electrons move from regions at lower potential to regions of higher potential.

Therefore, the correct answer is

The electron tends to go to the region of 4. higher electric potential.

Part A<br>Does the number of particles change as the substance changes its state?​
vovangra [49]

No, the number of particles does not change as the substance changes its state.

<h3><u>Explanation: </u></h3>

Change of state from one phase to another is achieved by providing or absorbing heat or pressure. For instance, liquid water if heated becomes vapour steam and if cooled becomes solid ice. Vapour can be compressed to form liquid water again and thus change of state is a reversible action.

The "chemical composition of the matter remains the same" irrespective of its state. Unless a chemical change is carried out, no change occurs with the number of particles. Phase change only affects the "arrangement of molecules", its structure and its motion.

Consider the following equilibrium at 979 K for the dissociation of molecular iodine into atoms of iodine. I2(g) equilibrium rea
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:  I_2=  0.0050 M

I = 0.0155 M

Explanation:

Initial moles of  I_2 = 0.072 mole

Volume of container = 3.9 L

Initial concentration of I_2=\frac{moles}{volume}=\frac{0.072moles}{3.9L}=0.018M  

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

                 I_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2I(g)

Initial conc.         0.018 M            0

At eqm. conc.    (0.018-x) M      (2x) M  

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

K_c=\frac{[I]^2}{[I_2]}

K_c=\frac{(2x)^2}{0.2-x}

we are given :  K_c=1.60\times 10^{-3}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :

1.60\times 10^{-3}=\frac{(2x)^2}{(0.018-x)}

x=0.0025

So, the concentrations for the components at equilibrium are:

[I]=2\times x=2\times 0.0025=0.0050

[I_2]=0.018-x=0.018-0.0025=0.0155

Hence, concentrations of I_2 and I are 0.0050 M ad 0.0155 M respectively.

Use the work—energy theorem to solve each of these problems. You can use Newton's laws to check your answers. Neglect air resist
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

a) It is moving at 43.15\frac{m}{s^{2}} when reaches the ground.

b) It is moving at 101.44\frac{m}{s^{2}} when reaches the ground.

Explanation:

Work energy theorem states that the total work on a body is equal its change in kinetic energy, this is:

W=K_f-K_i (1)

with W the total work, Ki the initial kinetic energy and Kf the final kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is defined as:

K=\frac{mv^2}{2} (2)

with m the mass and v the velocity.

Using (2) on (1):

W=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_i^2}{2} (3)

In both cases the total work while the objects are in the air is the work gravity field does on them. Work is force times the displacement, so in our case is weight (w=mg) of the object times displacement (d):

W=Fd=wd=mgd (4)

Using (4) on (3):

mgd=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_i^2}{2} (5)

That's the equation we're going to use on a) and b).

a) Because the branch started form rest initial velocity (vi) is equal zero, using this and solving (5) for final velocity:

v_f=\sqrt{\frac{2mgd}{m}}=\sqrt{2gd}=\sqrt{2*9.8*95}

v_f=43.15\frac{m}{s^{2}}

b) In this case the final velocity of the boulder is instantly zero when it reaches its maximum height, another important thing to note is that in this case work is negative because weight is opposing boulder movement, so we should use -mgd:

-mgd=-\frac{mv_i^2}{2}

Solving for initial velocity (when the boulder left the volcano):

v_i=\sqrt{\frac{2mgd}{m}}=\sqrt{2gd}=\sqrt{2*9.8*525}

v_i=101.44 \frac{m}{s^{2}}

12345 [234]

When I become a CEO (Chief Executive Officer) of a large company (like Amazon or Tesla), I would make the company more humane, with great parameters of working conditions, paying good salaries, so we would improve production and people would be happier , being an example to the whole world of a company that values and respects its employees.

<h3>Who is the CEO?</h3>

The CEO is essentially the highest-ranking executive in the company. He has most of the power. He reports directly to the board of directors. On the other hand, the president is below the CEO in the company hierarchy.

<h3>What does the CEO of a company do?</h3>

Direct the company's next steps through strategic planning; Take care, together with directors and shareholders of the company's health; Implement or modify processes within the company or sectors; Represent and relate to external audiences.

With this information, we can conclude that  I would make the company more humane, with great parameters of working conditions
