Answer: The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is PbS_2

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here metal lead is having an oxidation state of +4 called as Pb^{4+} cation and sulphur non metal has oxidation state of -2 called as S^{2-}. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral PbS_2

The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is PbS_2

Dave and Alex push on opposite ends of a car that has a mass of 875 kg. Dave pushes the car to the right with a force of 250 N,
White raven [17]

The net force acting on the car is 65 N to the left

The net force acting on an object is simply defined as the resultant force acting on the object.

From the question given, we obtained the following data:

  • Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 250 N
  • Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 315 N
  • Net force (Fₙ) =?

The net force acting on the car can be obtained as follow:

Fₙ = Fₗ – Fᵣ

Fₙ = 315 – 250

<h3>Fₙ = 65 N to the left </h3>

Therefore, the net force acting on the car is 65 N to the left

What are some changes that can be caused. By sound energy
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Hearing loss due to sound energy damaging the nerve cells in the inner ear. Many animals behavior is influenced by sound energy. They learn to associate events with sounds, so they run when something crunches in the dry grass (might be a coyote), but won't be bothered by the sound of a waterfall. Mood is affected by sound energy. A wine glass can break with sound energy, if the frequency matches the resonant frequency of the wine glass and the amplitude is great enough (one Mythbusters show featured a professional singer who broke a wine glass with his voice without any amplification).

Sound energy causes the particles in the medium it is traveling through to vibrate.

Unlike sound electromagnetic waves can travel trough empty space
