What is the net electrical charge on a magnesium ion that is formed when a neutral magnesium atom loses two electrons?

Physics
2 answers:
Snezhnost [94]3 years ago
6 0

As we know that fundamental charge due to an electron is given by

e = -1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

so here we will say that charge on an atom due to loss of electron is termed as positive charge while due to gain of electron it is negative charge

Here when magnesium loses two electrons it will become positively charged

And total charge on it is given as

Q = Ne

now we know that

N = 2 electrons

so charge on it is given as

Q = 2(1.6 \times 10^{-19}C)

Q = 3.2 \times 10^{-19} C

What is the purpose of using significant figures? How does it relate to accuracy, precision, resolution, and uncertainty?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

#see solution for details

Explanation:

-Uncertainty refers to an estimate of the amount by which a result may differ from this value,

-Precision refers to how closely repeated measurements agree with each other.

-Accuracy refers to how closely a measured value agrees with the correct value.

-The number of significant figures is the number of digits believed to be correct by the person doing the measuring. Therefore, choosing the correct number of significant figures reduces the deviation from the point of accuracy/uncertainty or precision and thereby reducing margin of error in the ensuing calculations.

A force acts on a 5kg object at rest. How fast will the object accelerate on a frictionless surface?
MakcuM [25]

Answer: The answer is C.) 25 m/s^2.

Explanation: If you input 5 as s, you would have to use the exponent 2.  This means that you have to multiply 5 by 5.  5 x 5= 25.  

Edit: Also, because the surface is frictionless, it will make the object go faster too.  Nothing can really slow it down unless something blocks it.

A helicopter carrying Dr. Evil takes off with a constant upward acceleration of 5.0 m/s2. Secret agent Austin Powers jumps on ju
denpristay [2]

Answer:

a) h=250\ m

b) \Delta h=0.0835\ m

Explanation:

Given:

  • upward acceleration of the helicopter, a=5\ m.s^{-2}
  • time after the takeoff after which the engine is shut off, t_a=10\ s

a)

<u>Maximum height reached by the helicopter:</u>

using the equation of motion,

h=u.t+\frac{1}{2} a.t^2

where:

u = initial velocity of the helicopter = 0 (took-off from ground)

t = time of observation

h=0+0.5\times 5\times 10^2

h=250\ m

b)

  • time after which Austin Powers deploys parachute(time of free fall), t_f=7\ s
  • acceleration after deploying the parachute, a_p=2\ m.s^{-2}

<u>height fallen freely by Austin:</u>

h_f=u.t_f+\frac{1}{2} g.t_f^2

where:

u= initial velocity of fall at the top = 0 (begins from the max height where the system is momentarily at rest)

t_f= time of free fall

h_f=0+0.5\times 9.8\times 7^2

h_f=240.1\ m

<u>Velocity just before opening the parachute:</u>

v_f=u+g.t_f

v_f=0+9.8\times 7

v_f=68.6\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Time taken by the helicopter to fall:</u>

h=u.t_h+\frac{1}{2} g.t_h^2

where:

u= initial velocity of the helicopter just before it begins falling freely = 0

t_h= time taken by the helicopter to fall on ground

h= height from where it falls = 250 m

now,

250=0+0.5\times 9.8\times t_h^2

t_h=7.1429\ s

From the above time 7 seconds are taken for free fall and the remaining time to fall with parachute.

<u>remaining time,</u>

t'=t_h-t_f

t'=7.1428-7

t'=0.1428\ s

<u>Now the height fallen in the remaining time using parachute:</u>

h'=v_f.t'+\frac{1}{2} a_p.t'^2

h'=68.6\times 0.1428+0.5\times 2\times 0.1428^2

h'=9.8165\ m

<u>Now the height of Austin above the ground when the helicopter crashed on the ground:</u>

\Delta h=h-(h_f+h')

\Delta h=250-(240.1+9.8165)

\Delta h=0.0835\ m

A racquetball strikes a wall with a speed of 30 m/s and rebounds in the opposite direction with a speed of 26 m/s. The collision
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The average acceleration of the ball during the collision with the wall is a=2,800m/s^{2}

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

We will asume initial speed has a negative direction, v_{i}=-30m/s, final speed has a positive direction, v_{f}=26m/s, \Delta t=20ms=0.020s and mass m_{b}.

<u>Initial momentum</u>

p_{i}=mv_{i}=(-30m/s)(m_{b})=-30m_{b}\ m/s

<u>final momentum</u>

p_{f}=mv_{f}=(26m/s)(m_{b})=26m_{b}\ m/s

<u>Impulse</u>

I=\Delta p=p_{f}-p_{i}=26m_{b}\ m/s-(-30m_{b}\ m/s)=56m_{b}\ m/s

<u>Average Force</u>

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{56m_{b}\ m/s}{0.020s} =2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}

<u>Average acceleration</u>

F=ma, so a=\frac{F}{m_{b}}.

Therefore, a=\frac{2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}}{m_{b}} =2800m/s^{2}
