What does newton's third law say about why momentum is conserved in collisions?

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, when force is exerted by one body to second body then the second body will also exert a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.

For example, when we hit a wall with our leg then the wall also applies a force on our leg and thus, our leg gets hurt.

Hence, we can conclude that newton's third law says that momentum is conserved in collisions because equal forces act in equal times, so the change in momentum for both objects must be equal.

What is the pH of 0.000134 M solution of HCI?

mafiozo [28]

Answer: The pH will be 3.87

Explanation:

pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^{-}$

According to stoichiometry,

1 mole of $HCl$ gives 1 mole of $H^+$

Thus $0.000134$ moles of $HCl$ gives = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.000134=0.0001342$ moles of $H^+$

Putting in the values:

$pH=-\log[0.000134]$

$pH=3.87$

Thus the pH will be 3.87

Consider two different ions. The anion has a valence of -2. The cation has a valence of +2. The two ions are separated by a dist

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Force of attraction = 35.96 $\times 10^{27}$ N

Explanation:

Given: charge on anion = -2

Charge on cation = +2

Distance = 1 nm = $10^{-9}$ m

To calculate: Force of attraction.

Solution: The force of attraction is calculated by using equation,

$F = \dfrac{k \times q_1 q_2}{ \r^2}$ ---(1)

where, q represents the charge and the subscripts 1 and 2 represents cation and anion.

k = $8.99 \times 10^9 \ Nm^{2}C^{-2}$

F = force of attraction

r = distance between ions.

Substituting all the values in the equation (1) the equation becomes

$F = \dfrac{8.99 \times 10^9 \times 2 \times 2}{ \left ( 10^-9 \right )^2 }$

Force of attraction = 35.96 $\times 10^{27}$ N
