<h2>Answer: Ion </h2>

An ion is an atom that is electrically charged by <u>gaining or losing one or more electrons. </u>

To understand it better:

An atom has a nucleus with electrons around it and has a neutral charge. When an electron is added or detached, this atom is electrically charged, that is, it ceases to have a neutral charge and becomes an <u>ion</u>.

In this sense, there are two types of ions:

-Anions: ions negatively charged, by the gain of electrons in the atom.

-Cations: ions positively charged, by the loss of electrons in the atom.

A 1120 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 27.40 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 9 490 kg truck m
asambeis [7]

Answer:

41.5 m/s

Explanation:

Since there are no external forces, momentum must be conserved.

Momentum P = mv.

Total momentum before the collision:

P = m_{car}v_{car} + m_{tru}_{ck}v_{tru}_{ck} = 1120 * 27.4 + 490 * 20 = 40.488

Total momentum after the collision:

P = 1120 * 18 + 490 * v_{tru}_{ck} = 40.488

solving for v:

v_{truck} = 41.5

What is entropy?
AysviL [449]

Answer: Entropy, the measure of a system's thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work. Because work is obtained from ordered molecular motion, the amount of entropy is also a measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system.

A rotating space station is said to create "artificial gravity" - a loosely-defined term used for an acceleration that would be
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

\omega=0.31\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

The artificial gravity generated by the rotating space station is the same centripetal acceleration due to the rotational motion of the station, which is given by:

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}(1)

Here, r is the radius and v is the tangential speed, which is given by:

v=\omega r(2)

Here \omega is the angular velocity, we replace (2) in (1):

a_c=\frac{(\omega r)^2}{r}\\\\a_c=\omega^2r

Recall that r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{200m}{2}=100m.

Solving for \omega:

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{a_c}{r}}\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}{100m}}\\\omega=0.31\frac{rad}{s}

1 Calculate the size of the quantum involved in the excitation of (a) an electronic motion of frequency 1.0 × 1015 Hz, (b) a mol
torisob [31]

Answer: a) E= 6.63x10^-19J

E= 3.97×10^2KJ/mol

b) E = 3.31×10^-19J

E= 18.8×10^4 KJ/mol

C) E = 1.32×10^-33J

E= 8.01×10^-10KJ/mol

Explanation:

a) E = h ×f

h= planks constant= 6.626×10^-34

E=(6.626×10^-34)×(1.0×10^15)

E=6.63×10^-19J

1mole =6.02×10^23

E=( 6.63×10^-19)×(6.02×10^23)

E=3.97×10^2KJ/mol

b) E =(6.626×10^-34)/(1.0×10^15)

E=3.13×10^-19J

E= 3.13×10^-19) ×(6.02×10^23)

E= 18.8×10^3KJ/MOL

c) E= (6.626×10^-34) /0.5

E= 1.33×10^-33J

E= (1.33×10^-33) ×(6.02×10^23)

E= 8.01×10^-10KJ/mol
