A 1200-kilogram automobile in motion strikes a 0.0001-kilogram insect. As a result, the insect is accelerated at a rate of 100 m
2 answers:
Answer:
force = 1 × N
Explanation:
given data
automobile mass = 1200 kg
insect mass = 0.0001 kg
insect accelerated = 100 m/s²
to find out
magnitude of the force the insect exerts on the car
solution
we get here force the insect exerts that is express as
force = mass × acceleration ............1
put here value we get
force = 0.0001 × 100 m/s²
force = 1 × N

The atom must lose 2 electrons
Explanation:
An atom consists of three types of particles:
- Protons, in the nucleus, with positive electric charge
- Neutrons, in the nucleus, with no electric charge
- Electrons, orbiting around the nucleus, with negative electric charge
As a result, the net electric charge of an atom is given by the number of protons minus the number of electrons:
Q = #p - #e
For a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons is the same, so the net charge is zero.
In order for an atom to have a positive charge of +2, it means that there must be 2 protons more than the number of electrons. Since atoms exchange electrons (and not protons), this means that the atom must have "lost" 2 electrons.
In this problem, we have an atom with 13 protons: this means that initially it also has 13 electrons. However, later the atom lost 2 electrons, and as a result, the final charge is +2e.
