Answer:

10.6 mA

Explanation:

t = time interval = 1.00 s

q = magnitude of charge on each ion = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

n₁ = number of Na⁺ ions = 2.68 x 10¹⁶

q₁ = charge due to Na⁺ ions = n₁ q = (2.68 x 10¹⁶) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) = 0.004288 C

n₂ = number of Cl⁻ ions = 3.92 x 10¹⁶

q₂ = charge due to Cl⁻ ions = n₂ q = (3.92 x 10¹⁶) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) = 0.006272 C

i₁ = Current due to Na⁺ ions = \frac{q_{1}}{t} = \frac{0.004288}{1} = 0.004288 A

i₂ = Current due to Cl⁻ ions = \frac{q_{2}}{t} = \frac{0.006272}{1} = 0.006272 A

Current passing between the electrodes is given as

i = i₁ + i₂

i = 0.004288 + 0.006272

i = 0.01056 A

i = 10.6 x 10⁻³ A

i = 10.6 mA

A roofer drops a nail that hits the ground traveling at 26 m/s. How fast was the nail traveling 1 second before it hits the grou
ELEN [110]
This problem can be solved using a kinematic equation. For this case, the following equation is useful:

v_final = v_initial + at

where,
v_final = final velocity of the nail
v_initial = initial velocity of the nail
a = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2
t = time 

First, we determine the time it takes for the nail to hit the ground. We know that the initial velocity is 0 m/s since the nail was only dropped. It has a final velocity of 26 m/s. We substitute these values to the equation and solve for t:

26 = 0 + 9.8*t
t = 26/9.8 = 2.6531 s

The problem asks the velocity of the nail at t = 1 second. We then subtract 1 second from the total time 2.6531 with v_final as unknown.

v_final = 0 + 9.8(2.6531-1) = 16.2004 m/s.

Thus, the nail was traveling at a speed of 16. 2004 m/s, 1 second before it hit the ground.

Why do we break up angled forces into components? How does that help us solve force problems?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

As the angle is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. The explanation of this relates to the components that we have been drawing. As the angle increases, the component of force parallel to the incline increases and the component of force perpendicular to the incline decreases.

Why is declaring faith the first of the five pillars of Islam?
Pie

The philosophy is simple that no one can start the journey towards being a Muslim unless he professes the basic principles mentioned in the  "Declaration of Faith", which is "<span>“There is none worthy of worship but Allah and Muhammad is His Messenger”.
The declaration consists of the two most fundamental elements of Islamic ideology:
1) Unity of Allah: Declaring that there is only One God and none else is mandatory to be a Muslim.
2) Faith in the prophet hood of Muhammad, the messenger of Islam.</span>
