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>

When a falling meteoroid is at a distance above the earth's surface of 2.60 times the earth's radius, what is its acceleration d
Mice21 [21]

The gravitational acceleration at any distance r is given by

g=  \frac{GM}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant, M the Earth's mass and r is the distance measured from the center of the Earth.

The Earth's radius is r_e=6.37 \cdot 10^6 m, so the meteoroid is located at a distance of:

r=r_e+2.60 r_e =3.60 r_e =  2.29 \cdot 10^7 m

And by substituting this value into the previous formula, we can find the value of g at that altitude:

g=  \frac{GM}{r^2} =  \frac{(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})(5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg)}{(2.29 \cdot 10^7 m)^2} =0.75 m/s^2

According to Wien's Law, how many times hotter is an object whose blackbody emission spectrum peaks in the blue, at a wave lengt
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:1.55 times

Explanation:

Given

First wavelength(\lambda _1)=450 nm

Second wavelength(\lambda _2)=700 nm

According wien's diplacement law

\lambda T=constant

where \lambda =wavelength

T=Temperature

Let T_1 and T_2 be the temperatures corresponding to \lambda _1 & \lambda _2 respectively.

\lambda _1\times T_1=\lambda _2\times T_2

\frac{T_1}{T_2}=\frac{\lambda _2}{\lambda _1}

\frac{T_1}{T_2}=\frac{700}{450}=1.55

Thus object with \lambda 450 nm is 1.55 times hotter than object with wavelength \lambda =700 nm

Suppose that sunlight is incident upon both a pair of reading glasses and a pair of sunglasses. Which pair would you expect to b
Ainat [17]

Answer: the pair of sunglasses

Explanation:

A good pair of sunglasses are composed of abosorbent lenses that filter the sunlight that affects the eyes retina, especially ultraviolet (UV). So, these sunglasses are used to reduce the amount of light or radiant energy transmitted.

On the other hand, normal reading glasses (in which the lens glass has not been treated to filter ultraviolet sunlight) will let UV rays pass through.

Therefore, if both glasses are exposed to sunlight, the sunglasses are expected to be warmer by absorbing that radiant energy and preventing it from reaching the eyes.
