A good scientific question should be pre-determined and also have a meaning or relation to science.
The freezing point of water is 32°F, 0°C.
Consider two variables said to be "inversely proportional" to each other. If all other variables are held constant, the magnitude or absolute value of one inversely proportional variable decreases if the other variable increases, while their product (the constant of proportionality k) is always the same.
Answer:
O²⁻
Explanation:
Number of protons = 8
Number of neutrons = 9
Number of electrons = 10
What type of atom or ion is it = ?
Solution:
Protons are the positively charged particle in an atom
Neutrons do not carry any charges
Electrons are negatively charged particles
For this atom, the number of protons helps to identify what specie it is; so this is an oxygen atom.
Now,
Charge = Number of protons - Number of electrons
Charge = 8 - 10 = -2
The charge on the atom is -2 and so it is an oxygen ion with -2 charge
The ion is O²⁻
Answer:
<em>6.77m/s</em>
Explanation:
Using the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v
m1 and m2 are the masses of the object
u1 and u2 are the velocities before collision
v is the final collision
Given
m1 = 300g = 0.3kg
u1 = 6.0m/s
m2 = 10g = 0.01kg
u2 = 30m/s
Required
The bird's speed immediately after swallowing v
Substitute the given values into the formula
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v
0.3(6) + 0.01(30) = (0.3+0.01)v
1.8+0.3 = 0.31v
2.1 = 0.31v
v = 2.1/0.31
<em>v = 6.77m/s</em>
<em>Hence the bird's speed immediately after swallowing is 6.77m/s</em>
