Answer:

Option C is correct

Explanation:

"The time is determined by the vertical distance. The formula is sqr(2d/a) = t. There still is no acceleration in the horizontal direction."

For the first drive

d = d

t = sqr(2d/a)

r = v  

For the Second drive

d = ??

t = sqr(2d/a)

r = 2v

Since the times are same, equate the results.

t = d/v = d1/2v

v*d1 = 2v*d The v's cancel because they are related.

d1 = 2d.

You go twice as far as you did before.

Option C is correct

In ionic bonds what happens to electrons?
OverLord2011 [107]
I think the correct answer from the choices would be that metals donate electrons to nonmetals. Ionic bonding involves transfer of valence electrons. The metal looses its valence electrons which makes it a cation while the nonmetal accepts these electrons.

What is true about empirical and molecular formulas?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Molecular formulas explains how many atoms of each element are in a compound, and empirical formulas explains the simplest or reduced ratio of elements in a compound. For instance, If a compound's molecular formula cannot be further reduced any more, then the empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula.
