Cations are formed by losing electrons

Cations are basically positive ions


It's not lose or gain protons because atoms can't lose or gain protons. The protons don't move.
It's not gain electrons because electrons are negative. More electrons=more negative

If you can't remember cations are positive
CAT-ions are PAWS-itively charged

17. A volleyball weighs about 300 grams.
atroni [7]

Answer:

PE = 44.1 J

Explanation:

Ok, to have the specific data, the first thing we must do is convert from grams to kilograms. Since mass must always be in kilograms (kg)

We have:

  • 1 kilograms = 1000 grams.

We convert it using a rule of 3, replacing, simplifying units and solving:

  • \boxed{\bold{x=\frac{gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ kg}{1000}=\boxed{\bold{0.3\ kg}}}}

==================================================================

Earth's gravity is known to be 9.8 m/s², so we have:

Data:

  • m = 0.3 kg
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • h = 15 m
  • PE = ?

Use formula of potencial energy:

  • \boxed{\bold{PE=m*g*h}}

Replace and solve:

  • \boxed{\bold{PE=0.3\ kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*15\ m}}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{PE=44.1\ J}}}

Since the decimal number, that is, the number after the comma is less than 5, it cannot be rounded, then we have this result.

The potential energy of the volleyball is <u>44.1 Joules.</u>

Greetings.

Researcher measures the thickness of a layer of benzene (n = 1.50) floating on water by shining monochromatic light onto the fil
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Minimum thickness; t = 9.75 x 10^(-8) m

Explanation:

We are given;

Wavelength of light;λ = 585 nm = 585 x 10^(-9)m

Refractive index of benzene;n = 1.5

Now, let's calculate the wavelength of the film;

Wavelength of film;λ_film = Wavelength of light/Refractive index of benzene

Thus; λ_film = 585 x 10^(-9)/1.5

λ_film = 39 x 10^(-8) m

Now, to find the thickness, we'll use the formula;

2t = ½m(λ_film)

Where;

t is the thickness of the film

m is an integer which we will take as 1

Thus;

2t = ½ x 1 x 39 x 10^(-8)

2t = 19.5 x 10^(-8)

Divide both sides by 2 to give;

t = 9.75 x 10^(-8) m

Jack has two boxes. One is 148g and one is 78g. If jack pushes both boxes with the same amount of force, which will accelerate f
Step2247 [10]
The 78g box, since it has less weight, would accelerate faster. If you had a frictionless surface, and you conducted this experiment, both boxes, without any outside forces, would accelerate at the same rate forever. However, in this problem we must assume the surface is not frictionless. Friction is determined by weight; the more weight, the more friction. Since the 78g box has less weight, it has less friction, making it easier to push with less force.
