Changing the number of electrons changes the <em>net electric charge</em> of the atom.

If the atom was originally neutral, then it becomes an <em>ion</em> . (If it wasn't originally neutral, then it was already an ion.)

Let's assume this is a drawing of particles of a gas substance. This assumption is made upon the fact that these particles are not close and are represented in motion characteristic for gases. Gases can become solid by skipping the liquid phase. This process is called deposition. Also, a gas can become a liquid through the process of condensation as a result of energy loss at molecular level. Likewise, this is enabled thanks to heat loss or applied pressure.

Sierra did 500 J of work to move her couch. If she exerts 250 N of force on the couch, how far did she move it?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

2 m

Explanation:

Work = force × distance

500 J = 250 N × d

d = 2 m

She moved the couch 2 meters.

1.)Two objects, one of m=20,000 kg, and another of 12,500 kg, are placed at a distance of 5 meters apart. What is the force of g

Delvig [45]

1) $6.67\cdot 10^{-4} N$

The force of gravitation between the two objects is given by:

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} kg^{-1} m^{3} s^{-2}$ is the gravitational constant

m1 = 20,000 kg is the mass of the first object

m2 = 12,500 kg is the mass of the second object

r = 5 m is the distance between the two objects

Substituting the numbers inside the equation, we find

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(20,000 kg)(12,500 kg)}{(5 m)^2}=6.67\cdot 10^{-4} N$

2) $2.7\cdot 10^{-3} N$

From the formula in exercise 1), we see that the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance:

$F \sim \frac{1}{r^2}$

this means that if we cut in a half the distance without changing the masses, the magnitude of the forces changes by a factor

$F'\sim \frac{1}{(r/2)^2}=4 \frac{1}{r^2}=4F$

So, the gravitational force increases by a factor 4. Therefore, the new force will be

$F' = 4 F=4(6.67\cdot 10^{-4} N)=2.7\cdot 10^{-3} N$

3) 12.5 Nm

The torque is equal to the product between the magnitude of the perpendicular force and the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation:

$\tau=Fd$
