Please help! Kiki makes a table to compare the particles in a magnesium atom to those in a magnesium ion. She knows that a magne

sium ion has an electric field that points away from the ion. What values should she use to complete her table?
(The table looks something like this:
Magnesium Atom  Magnesium Ion
Protons (Magnesium Atom)12  (and Magnesium Ion) X
Neutrons (MA)12  (MI)Y
Electrons (MA) 12  (MI) Z
A. X: 14 Y: 12 Z: 12
B.X: 12 Y: 12 Z: 10
C. X: 12 Y: 10 Z: 12 X: 12
D. Y: 12 Z: 14

Answer:

B.X: 12 Y: 12 Z: 10  

Explanation:

<u>Electric field points away from a positive ion and towards for a negative ion. An atom becomes an ion when it loses or gains electrons. </u>

A positive ion is formed when the electrons are lost to another atom and remaining atom has more number of protons than electrons.

Atomic number of magnesium is 12 which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons in a neutral atom. atomic mass of magnesium is 24 which means it has 12 neutrons.

A positive magnesium ion must have electrons less than protons. There would be no change in number of protons and neutrons.

<u>From the given options, in option B, number of protons and neutrons is same i.e. 12 where as number electrons is 10 which is less than the number of protons. This means these are the correct options for magnesium ion. </u>

What causes an electric current in a wire?
Rina8888 [55]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. It is the electrons that  flow because of electrical attraction and repulsion causes an electric current in a wire. Electrons, which continuously move in wire, are called Electric Current. Hope this answers the question.

What is the magnitude of the electric field strength between them, if the potential 7.95 cm from the zero volt plate (and 2.05 c
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

ΔVab = Ed

ΔVab = Va-Vb = Va-V0 = Va

E = Va/ d

   = 413V / 0.0795 m

    = 5194.97 V/M

Explanation:

the potential difference between two uniform plates is calculated by the formula of electric field.

A common physics demonstration is to drop a small magnet down a long, vertical aluminum pipe. Describe the motion of the magnet
Rzqust [24]

Answer and Explanation:

This experiment is known as Lenz's tube.

The Lenz tube is an experiment that shows how you can brake a magnetic dipole that goes down a tube that conducts electric current. The magnet, when falling, along with its magnetic field, will generate variations in the magnetic field flux within the tube. These variations create an emf induced according to Faraday's Law:

\varepsilon =-\frac{d\phi_B}{dt}

This emf induced on the surface of the tube generates a current within it according to Ohm's Law:

V=IR

This emf and current oppose the flux change, therefore a field will be produced in such a direction that the magnet is repelled from below and is attracted from above. The magnitude of the flux at the bottom of the magnet increases from the point of view of the tube, and at the top it decreases. Therefore, two "magnets" are generated under and above the dipole, which repel it below and attract above. Finally, the dipole feels a force in the opposite direction to the direction of fall, therefore it falls with less speed.
