Answer:

10 N Left

Explanation:

Given parameters;

Forces acting on the box

Left force = 40N

Right force = 30N

Unknown:

Net force on the box and the direction = ?

Solution:

Force is a pull or push on a body;

← BODY →

40N 30N

The forces acting on the body are in the opposite directions, the greater force will determine the direction of pull.

Net force = Left force - Right force = 40 - 30 = 10N

The force will be directed left with a net value of 10N

A reaction in which a substance reacts with oxygen, emitting heat and forming oxygen-containing compounds is an example of a(n):

yaroslaw [1]

Answer: B) combustion reaction.

Explanation:

A) acid-base reaction: When an acid reacts with a base, to form metal salt and water, this type of reaction is Acid Base reaction.

Example: $HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O$

B) combustion reaction: When a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water, this type of reaction is combustion reaction.

$CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O$

C) precipitation reaction: a reaction in which aqueous solution of two compounds on mixing react to form an insoluble compound which separate out as a solid are called precipitation reactions.

$Na_2SO_4(aq)+BaCl_2(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)+NaCl(aq)$

D) gas evolution reaction: a reaction in which one of the product is formed as a gas.

$CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)$

A city in Laguna generates 0.96 kg per capita per day of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). Makati City in Metro Manila generates 1.9

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

i) amount of MSW generated:

Laguna: 19200 Kg/day

Makati: 38000 Kg/day

ii) number of trucks to collect twice weekly:

Laguna: 3 trucks

Makati: 5 trucks

iii) volume of MSW in tons that enter landfill/week:

Laguna: 147.84 ton/week

Makati: 292 ton/week

Explanation:

i) Laguna: 0.96 Kg person / day of MSW * 20000 = 19200 Kg MSW / day

⇒ Laguna: 19200 Kg/day * ( 7day/ week ) = 134400 Kg/week

Makati: 1.9 Kg person / day of MSW * 20000 = 38000 Kg MSW / day

⇒ Makati: 38000 Kg/day * ( 7day/week ) = 266000 Kg/week

ii) truck capacity = 4.4 ton * ( Kg / 0.0011 ton ) = 4000 Kg

⇒ quote/day = 4000 Kg * 0.75 = 3000 Kg

⇒ loads/day = 2 * 3000 kg = 6000 Kg

⇒ operate/week = 5 * 6000 Kg = 30000 Kg

∴ Laguna: number of trucks needed/week= 134400 / 30000 = 4.48 ≅ 5 trucks

⇒ number of trucks to collect twice weekly = 5 / 2 = 2.5 ≅ 3 trucks

∴ Makati : number of trucks needed/week = 266000 / 30000 = 8.86 ≅ 9 trucks

⇒ number of trucks to collect twice weekly = 9 / 2 = 4.5 ≅ 5 trucks

iii) enter landfill/week:

Laguna: 134400Kg MSW/week * ( 0.0011 ton/Kg ) = 147.84 ton/week

Makati: 266000Kg MSW/week * ( 0.0011 ton/Kg ) = 292 ton/week

slava [35]

Hey there!

Answer: Protons

The atom in a sample of an element must contain nuclei with the same number of protons. If the protons change in number, then the element will modify as well.

Thank you!
