Answer:

metallic bond

sea of delocalized electrons

Explanation:

Copper has Cu2+ atoms arranged in layers and held together by a sea of electrons in lattice form. The sea of electrons or de-localized electrons are provided by Cu. Each copper atom contributes 2 electrons to the sea for binding of Cu2+ atom layer.

The sea of electrons are highly mobile and require a very small potential difference across the atoms to push these electrons to form a current. The mobility, ease and freeness of these electrons allows copper to be a good electrical conductor

Answer:

a. metallic bond

b. the valence electrons from the s and p orbitals of the interacting metal atoms delocalize. That is to say, instead of orbiting their respective metal atoms, they form a “cloud” of electrons that surrounds the positively charged atomic nuclei of the interacting metal ions.

c. due to the presence of free electrons in its outer energy levels

Car A with a mass of 725 kilograms is traveling east at an initial velocity of 15 meters/second. It collides head–on with car B,
ikadub [295]

Answer:

p_t_o_t_a_l=250kg\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

<u>The total momentum of a system is defined by:</u>

(mv)_t_o_t=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...

Where,

(mv)_t_o_t is the total momentum or it could be expressed also as p_t_o_t_a_l.

m_1 and m_2 represents the masses of the objects interacting in the system.

v_1 and v_2 are the velocities of the objects of the system.

<em>Remember: </em><em>The momentum is a fundamental physical magnitude of vector type.</em>

We have:

m_1=725 kg

v_1=15\frac{m}{s}\\m_2=625 kg

We are going to take the east side as positive, and the west side as negative. Then the velocity of the car B, has to be <u>negative</u>. It goes in a different direction from car A.

v_2=-17\frac{m}{s}

Then the total momentum of the system is:

p_t_o_t_a_l=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\p_t_o_t_a_l=(725kg)(15\frac{m}{s})+(625kg)(-17\frac{m}{s})\\p_t_o_t_a_l=10875kg\frac{m}{s}-10625kg\frac{m}{s}\\p_t_o_t_a_l=250kg\frac{m}{s}

What must you know to find the amount of work done on an object
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The work is calculated by multiplying the force by the amount of movement of an object (W = F * d). A force of 10 newtons, that moves an object 3 meters, does 30 n-m of work. A newton-meter is the same thing as a joule, so the units for work are the same as those for energy – joules.

A 16.2 kg person climbs up a uniform ladder with negligible mass. The upper end of the ladder rests on a frictionless wall. The
S_A_V [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the balance of forces. We will decompose the forces in the vertical and horizontal sense, and at the same time, we will perform summation of torques to eliminate some variables and obtain a system of equations that allow us to obtain the angle.

The forces in the vertical direction would be,

\sum F_x = 0

f-N_w = 0

N_w = f

The forces in the horizontal direction would be,

\sum F_y = 0

N_f -W =0

N_f = W

The sum of Torques at equilibrium,

\sum \tau = 0

Wdcos\theta - N_wLsin\theta = 0

WdCos\theta = fLSin\theta

f = \frac{Wd}{Ltan\theta}

The maximum friction force would be equivalent to the coefficient of friction by the person, but at the same time to the expression previously found, therefore

f_{max} = \mu W=\frac{Wd}{Ltan\theta}

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{d}{\mu L})

Replacing,

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{0.9}{0.42*2})

\theta = 46.975\°

Therefore the minimum angle that the person can reach is 46.9°

A car is moving at 25.5 m/s when it accelerates at 1.94 m/s^2 for 2.3 s. What is the car's final speed? (Keep in mind direction
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

29.96m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial speed  = 25.5m/s

Acceleration  = 1.94m/s²

Time  = 2.3s

Unknown:

Final speed of the car  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we are going to apply the right motion equation:

    v = u  + at

v is the final speed

u is the initial speed

a is the acceleration

t is the time taken

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

      v  = 25.5 + (1.94 x 2.3)  = 29.96m/s
