How does an atom of chlorine-37 become a chloride ion with a -1 charge?

Physics
1 answer:
kirill115 [55]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B. The atom gains 1 electron, to make a total of 18 electrons.

Explanation:

Chlorine is the 17th element in the periodic table, so it has atomic number 17:

Z = 17

This means that a neutral atom of chlorine has 17 protons and 17 electrons.

When a chlorine atom gains 1 electron, its electric charge (initially zero) becomes -1, since the electron has negative charge of -1 (in elemntary charge units). This also means that the number of electrons in the ion is now

17 + 1 = 18

So the correct answer is

B. The atom gains 1 electron, to make a total of 18 electrons

A 1400 kg wrecking ball hangs from a 20-m-long cable. the ball is pulled back until the cable makes an angle of 30.0 ∘ with the
anastassius [24]

From the geometry of the problem, the 20 m-long cable creates the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with the extended of the other two sides of size 20 m * cos(30 deg), which is around 17.3 m. Therefore, the ball has increased by 20 m - 17.3 m = 2.7 m. 

The potential energy will have altered by m*g*h, which is 1400 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 1.6 m , or about 37044 joules.

A Boeing 747 ""Jumbo Jet"" has a length of 59.7 m. The runway on which the plane lands intersects another runway. The width of t
Reika [66]

Answer:

1.7 seconds

Explanation:

To clear the intersection, the total distance to be covered = 59.7 + 25 =84.7m

first we need to find the initial speed to just enter the intersection by using the third equation of motion

v^2 - u^2 = 2*a*s

45^2 - u^2 = 2 * -5.7 * 84.7

u^2 = 45^2 +965.58

u^2 = 2990.58

u = 54.7 m/s

Now for time we apply the first equation of motion

v-u =a * t

t = (v-u)/a = (45 - 54.7)/-5.7 = 1.7seconds

Why cable color codes are important ? what if we use three phase cables without color
Degger [83]

Answer:

Cable color codes are very important for example, If something is not wired properly, it can result in injuries, deaths, fires, and many other problems. This is why there are well-established wire color codes to ensure those working with an around this type of equipment can ensure everything is wired safely and effectively. If we used three phase cables without color code, this can lead too incorrect things that might be a hazard too get not fix and learning new color codes would be hard therefore we should stick too the same color codes for cables and it saves the hassle for needing too check every cable cord color then the original one signed too it.

An airplane has an effective wing surface area of 19.4 m2 that is generating the lift force. In level flight the air speed over
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

W =23807.68 N

Explanation:

given,

surface area of wing = 19.4 m²

speed over top wing = 67 m/s

speed under wing = 51 m/s

density of air =  1.3 kg/m³

weight of plane

From Bernoulli's principle

P_1 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho_2^2

where 1 and 2 are two different locations at the same geo potential level  

so if we call 1 the lower surface and 2 the upper surface,

we find the pressure differential, P₁ -P₂

\Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)

\Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.3 \times (67^2-51^2)

\Delta P =1227.2\ N/m^2

then the force acting on the plane is

F=P A

F=1227.2 x 19.4

F =23807.68 N

weight of the plane

W =23807.68 N
