Aluminum oxide can be produced during rocket launches. Show that the sum of positive and negative charges in a unit of Al2O3 equ

Triss [41]

Answer:

The sum of positive and negative charges in a unit of Al2O3 equals zero.

Aluminium has a charge of +3 while Oxygen has a charge of -2 on each ion.

Al203 has 2 Al atoms and 3 O atoms.

Charge on Al2O3 = 2(charge on Al ion) + 3(charge on O ion)

= 2(3) + 3(-2)

= 6 - 6

= 0

Explanation:

Aluminium has 3 electrons in the outermost shell and has the tendency to lose those 3 electrons to form a positive ion and have a complete outermost shell.

Whereas, Oxygen has 6 electrons in the outermost and has the tendency to accept two more electrons to form a negative ion and have a complete outermost shell.

If the mass of an object is 44 kilograms and its velocity is 10 meters per second east, how much Kinetic Energy does it have?

aksik [14]

Answer: 2200J

Explanation:

M = 44kg

V = 10m/s

K.E =?

K.E = 1/2MV2 = 1/2 x 44 x (10)^2

K.E = 22 x 100

K.E = 2200J

In an electric shaver, the blade moves back and forth over a distance of 2.0 mm in simple harmonic motion, with frequency 124 Hz

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

(a) A = 1 mm

(b) $V_{max}=0.77872 m/s$

(c) $a_{max}=606.4 m/s^{2}/tex]Explanation:Distance moved back and forth = 2 mm Frequency, f = 124 HzSo, amplitude is the half of the distance traveled back and forth. (a) So, amplitude, A = 1 mm(b) Angular frequency, ω = 2 π f = 2 x 3.14 x 124 = 778.72 rad/s The formula for the maximum speed is given by [tex]V_{max}=\omega \times A$

$V_{max}=778.72 \times 0.001$

$V_{max}=0.77872 m/s$

(c) The formula for the maximum acceleration is given by

$a_{max}=\omega ^{2}A$

$a_{max}=778.72 ^{2}\times 0.001$

[tex]a_{max}=606.4 m/s^{2}/tex]

Neutron stars consist only of neutrons and have unbelievably high densities. a typical mass and radius for a neutron star might

Tanya [424]

<span>Density is 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Dime weighs 1.5x10^12 pounds The definition of density is simply mass per volume. So let's divide the mass of the neutron star by its volume. First, we need to determine the volume. Assuming the neutron star is a sphere, the volume will be 4/3 pi r^3, so 4/3 pi 1.9x10^3 = 4/3 pi 6.859x10^3 m^3 = 2.873x10^10 m^3 Now divide the mass by the volume 9.9x10^28 kg / 2.873x10^10 m^3 = 3.44588x10^18 kg/m^3 Since we only have 2 significant digits in our data, round to 2 significant digits, giving 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Now to figure out how much the dime weighs, just multiply by the volume of the dime. 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 * 2.0x10^-7 m^3 = 6.8x10^11 kg And to convert from kg to lbs, multiply by 2.20462, so 6.8x10^11 kg * 2.20462 lb/kg = 1.5x10^12 lb</span>
