What's a difference between mercury and oxygen? (They both are elements)

1 answer:

8 0

-- There are 80 protons in the nucleus of every atom of Mercury,
but only 8 of them in the nucleus of an atom of Oxygen.

-- Mercury must be warmer than 357°C in order to boil, but Oxygen
must only be warmer than -183°C.

-- Mercury must be colder than -39°C in order to freeze, but Oxygen
must be colder than -219°C.

-- Oxygen is required for human life. Mercury is a deadly poison.

A 0.350kg bead slides on a curved fritionless wire,

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

h2 = 0.092m

Explanation:

From a balance of energy from point A to point B, we get speed before the collision:

$m1*g*h-\frac{m1*V_B^2}{2}=0$ Solving for Vb:

$V_B=\sqrt{2gh}=6.56658m/s$

Since the collision is elastic, we now that velocity of bead 1 after the collision is given by:

$V_{B'}=V_B*\frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2} = \sqrt{2gh}* \frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2}=-1.34316m/s$

Now, by doing another balance of energy from the instant after the collision, to the point where bead 1 stops, we get the distance it rises:

$m1*g*h2-\frac{m1*V_{B'}^2}{2}=0$ Solving for h2:

h2 = 0.092m

What is the ACCELERATION of a 50 kg object pushed with a force of 500 newtons *

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

To find the acceleration of an object given the force and mass we use the formula

<h3> $acceleration = \frac{force}{mass}$ </h3>

From the question

mass of object = 50 kg

force = 500 N

So the acceleration is

<h3> $acceleration = \frac{500}{50} \\ = \frac{50}{5}$ </h3>

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

What is the term that describes waves that require a medium through which to travel?

gladu [14]

Answer:

Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium. This means that they have to have some sort of matter to travel through. These waves travel when molecules in the medium collide with each other passing on energy. One example of a mechanical wave is sound.
