An element forms an ionic compound with bromine having the formula XBr. If the mass number of the element X is 41 and the ion ha

s 18 electrons, what is the element X and how many neutrons does it have?
Physics
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

X is calcium and it has 21 neutrons

Explanation:

Calcium 41 is an isotope of calcium with mass number of 41 and atomic number of 20

Number of neutrons = mass number - number of electrons

The number of electrons is the same as the atomic number of the element (calcium)

Number of neutrons = 41 - 20 = 21

3. The largest asteroid in the solar system is 1 Ceres. It has a mass of 9.3835
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

2.8351×10^7 N/kg

Explanation:

We know that,

W = mg -------(1)

where W = weight, m = mass, g = gravitational acceleration

Also from Newton's law of gravitation we know that,

F = GMm/r²

Where,

F = gravitational force,

G = universal gravitational constant

M,m = masses of object under gravitational influence

r = distance between the two center of masses.

Here we get

F = (Gm/r²)M -------(2)

From 1 and 2

The acceleration due to gravity = gravitational field intensity

So if you consider the gravitational field intensity at the surface of the asteroid,it is equal to the acceleration due to gravity at the same place.

So we get,

g = (6.67×10^-11)×9.3835×10^20/(47²) = 2.8351×10^7 N/kg

The airplane hits even worse turbulence and you find yourself pinned against the ceiling of the airplane by a force of 100 N. Wh
brilliants [131]

Answer:

The correct answer is "12 m/s²".

Explanation:

Given:

F_{app} = 100 \ N

As we know,

⇒ F_{app} = mg-ma

Or,

⇒ a = g-(\frac{F_{app}}{m} )

By substituting the values, we get

⇒    =10-(-\frac{100}{50} )

⇒    =10+2

⇒    =12 \ m/s^2

If the radius of the equipotential surface of the point charge is 14.3 m at a potential of 2.20 kV, what will be the magnitude o
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The magnitude of the point charge is 3.496 x 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the surface, r = 14.3 m

magnitude of the potential, V = 2.2 kV = 2,200 V

The magnitude of the point charge is calculated as follows;

V = (\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0} )(\frac{Q}{r} )\\\\V = \frac{KQ}{r} \\\\Q = \frac{Vr}{K} \\\\Q = \frac{2,200 \times 14.3}{9\times 10^9} \\\\Q = 3.496 \times 10^{-6} \ C\\\\Q = 3.496 \ \mu C

Therefore, the magnitude of the point charge is 3.496 μC

Explain why competitive athletes do not smoke give as many reasons as you can
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Your muscles need oxygen to perform their function, and a reduction in the oxygen making its way to them means that muscles don't work as effectively. ... These negative effects are why most athletes don't smoke.

1.How is the law of conservation of energy demonstrated by the movement of the pendulum?
Snezhnost [94]
1. Law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created, nor destroyed, for example, windmills take kinetic energy(movement energy) and convert it into electrical energy using gears and a generator as well as the blades.

so this supports it because the pendulum never reaches the same height twice unless you reset it so the energy is always getting less and less and not randomly getting back onto the pendulum.

2.Gravity, friction and air resistance slow it down as well

3. at the top, potential energy is the amount of energy something has relative to the amount it can disperse before stopping, for example, a book on a shelf has more potential energy than that of a book on a table, this is because when the shelf book falls it will create more energy than the table book.
