An oxygen atom picks up two additional, free-floating electrons. Is the charge of the newly formed oxygen ion positive, negative

, or neutral?
Physics
1 answer:
Natalka [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

net charge of the oxygen atom is NEGATIVE

Explanation:

As we know that an oxygen atom is initially neutral

Atomic number of oxygen atom is 8

Atomic number of oxygen shows the total number of protons in it

now we can say that for neutral condition of oxygen atom we have

number of electrons = 8

number of protons = 8

Now if the neutral atom add up by two more electrons then

total number of electrons in it = 8 + 2 = 10

total number of protons = 8

so here net charge of the oxygen atom is NEGATIVE

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The rate of change of the shadow length of a person is 2.692 ft/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Height of a person, H = 20 ft

Height of a person, h = 7 ft

Rate = 5 ft/s

Now,

From Fig.1:

b = person's distance from the lamp post

a = shadow length

Also, from the similarity of the triangles, we can write:

\frac{a + b}{20} = \frac{a}{7}

a = \frac{7}{13}b

Differentiating the above eqn w.r.t t:

\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{7}{13}.\frac{db}{dt}

Now, we know that:

Rate = \frac{db}{dt} = 5\ ft/s

Thus

\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{7}{13}.\times 5 = 2.692\ ft/s

The displacement at any given time of an object is x = 6 sin 98t , where the symbols have their usual meanings. i). Proof that t
Fofino [41]

A simple harmonic motion is defined by the amplitude and angular frequency of the oscillation, which are represented in the given function as 6 units and 98 rad/s respectively.

<h3>General wave equation for simple harmonic motion</h3>

y = A sinωt

where;

  • A is amplitude of the motion
  • ω is angular frequency

<h3>Amplitude of the oscillation</h3>

A = 6 units

<h3>Angular frequency of the wave</h3>

ω = 98 rad/s

A simple harmonic motion is defined by the amplitude and angular frequency of the oscillation. Thus, the wave is executing simple harmonic motion.

Which example best illustrates the transfer of energy between two waves?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

A) A buoy rises in the water as a boat speeds past.

Explanation:

The passing boat transfers energy in the form of a wave. Other options illustrate other physics concepts like gravity (falling egg) or Newton's law (for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction).

Energy is transferred through a solid
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy through direct contact between particles of a substance, without moving the particles to a new location. Usually occurs in solids. When heat is supplied to one end, molecules at that end start to move more quickly.
