By collapsing and crumpling, the force and energy is absorbed by the crumple zone and it is not transferred to the passengers inside. This is a safety feature for the passengers.

An iron atom (Fe) has 26 protons in it. If the atom has 20 electrons in it, explain what type of charge it has and how you can t
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The iron atom has a positive charge, making it a cation.

Explanation:

The atom has a nucleus, where the protons and neutrons, which are the subatomic particles with the highest mass, are located. Practically all the mass of the atom is concentrated in the nucleus.Protons have a positive electrical charge, while neutrons have no charge.

Electrons move around the nucleus with other negatively charged particles.

An iron atom (Fe) has 26 protons and 20 electrons in it.  That is, there are 6 more protons than electrons. As mentioned, protons are positively charged. So <u><em>the iron atom has a positive charge, making it a cation</em></u>.

39. A dog runs on a waxed floor at an initial speed of 2 m/s. It slides to a stop with an
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the one-dimensional equation

v_f=v_0+at where vf is the final velocity of the dog, v0 is the initial velocity of the dog, a is the acceleration of the dog, and t is the time it takesto reach that final velocity. For us:

0 = 2 + -.43t and

-2 = -.43t so

t = 4.7 seconds

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a gravitational force of 45 units. If the mass of Object 1 is doubled, then the new grav
Novosadov [1.4K]

Explanation:

Fgravity = G*(mass1*mass2)/D²

so, if you double one of the masses, what does that do to our equation ?

Fgravitynew = G*(2*mass1*mass2)/D²

due to the commutative property of multiplication

Fgravitynew = 2* G*(mass1*mass2)/D² = 2* Fgravity

so, the correct answer will be 2×45 = 90 units.
