Answer:

If an object is electrically neutral it has no net charge becuase it has the same number of protons as it does electrons, which are opposite charges that offset each other. No, that just means that the sum of all its positive and negative amounts of charge equals zero.

A person is trying to lift a crate that has a mass of 30 kg. The normal force of the floor is currently supplying 150N of force.

alexdok [17]

Here when an object is placed on the level floor then in that case there are two forces on the object

1). Weight of object downwards (mg)

2). Normal force due to floor which will counterbalance the weight (N)

so when no force is applied on the box at that time normal force is counter balanced by weight.

Now here it is given that A person tried to lift the box upwards

So now there are two forces on the box

1). Applied force of person

2). Normal force due to ground

So now these two forces will counter balance the weight of the crate

So we can write an equation for force balance like

$F_g = F_n + F_a$

given that

$F_g = mg$

here

m = 30 kg and

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s^2

$F_n = 150 N$

now from above equation

$30*10 = 150 + F_a$

$F_a = 300 - 150 = 150 N$

So force applied by the person must be 150 N

Is distance traveled by a moving train qualitative discrete continuous or na?

butalik [34]

Continuous. Discrete values are values like 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. - they're values that are distinct, and typically there's some idea of a next and a previous value. When we're counting whole numbers, there's a definitive answer to which number comes after, and which number comes before. With continuous values, there's no real "next" or "last" value.

Motion is measured with continuous values; a train might move 300 yards in 1 minute, but we can look at smaller and smaller chunks of time to keep getting shorter and shorter distances. There is no "next" distance the train moves after those 300 yards - it just doesn't make sense for there to be.

It's also measured quantitatively, not qualitatively. This just means that we can use numerical values to measure it, rather than other descriptors like color, smell, or taste.

Which statement about an atom is correct?

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \sf{The \: electron \: has \: a \: negative \: charge \: and \: is \: found \: outside \: of \: the \: nucleus}}$

Option A is correct

Explanation:

Let's check the options:

A: The electron has a negative charge and is found outside of the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ Yeah! It's TRUE . An electron is a negatively charged particle and is located outside the nucleus of an atom.

B : The neutron has a negative charge and is found in the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ No! It's FALSE . A neutron carries no charge. i.e it is a neutral particle and found inside the nucleus.

C : The proton has no charge and is found in the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ No! It's FALSE.A proton is a positively charged particle present inside nucleus of an atom.

D : The neutron has no charge and is found outside of the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ I agree that the neutron has no charge. But it is found inside the nucleus not outside . So, this statement is FALSE .

Hence, we found our answer! :D

A. The electron has a negative charge and is found outside of the nucleus is the correct statement about an atom.

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
