Explanation: when a neutral atom loses an electron or gains a positive charge electron, it becomes a positive ion (positively charged) and when an neutral atom gains an electronic charge or losses a positive charge electron, it becomes a negative ion (negatively charged).

A student drops a rock from a bridge to the water 12.7 m below. with what speed does the rock strike the water? the acceleration

kolezko [41]

The rock strike the water with the speed of 15.78 m/sec.

The speed by which rock hit the water is calculated by the formula

v= $\sqrt{2gh}$

v= $\sqrt{2*9.8*12.7}$

v=15.78 m/sec

Hence, the rock strike the water with the speed of 15.78 m/sec.

A child is riding in a child-restraint chair, securely fastened to the seat of a car. Assume the car has speed 47 km/h when it h

Elina [12.6K]

Answer: F = 1235 N

Explanation: Newton's Second Law of Motion describes the effect of mass and net force upon acceleration: $F_{net}=m.a$

Acceleration is the change of velocity in a period of time: $a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

Velocity of the car is in km/h. Transforming it in m/s:

$v=\frac{47.10^{3}}{36.10^{2}}$

v = 13 m/s

At the moment the car decelerates, acceleration is

$a=\frac{13}{0.2}$

a = 65 m/s²

Then, force will be

$F_{net}=19(65)$

$F_{net}$ = 1235 N

The horizontal net force the straps of the restraint chair exerted on the child to hold her is 1235 newtons.

What are three characteristic properties of matter?

Licemer1 [7]

Physical characteristics of matter include its mass, weight, volume, and density. It also specifically describes its odor, shape, texture, and hardness. In addition, physical properties describe whether the object is a solid, a liquid, or a gas – its phase of matter at room temperature.
