What force holds the lattice structure in place in a crystal?

At the end it depends on the type of crystal.

There are ionic crystals (like sodium chloride), covalent cristals (like diamond) and metallic crystals (like aluminum).

The context of the question may tell you if it is referred to one type of crystal or other.

I gues it may be about salt compounds, which are ionic crystals. In this case, the force that holds the lattice structure in place in a crystal is ionic (electrical attraction between cations and anions).

In the other two cases, the force is covalent bond in one case and metallic bond in the other case.

Does the distance a person kicks a soccer ball
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Independent variable: how far the soccer ball is kicked.

Dependent variable: how well the person does on their math test

Explanation:

The distance the ball is kicked is what the scientist can change. On the other hand, in this experiment, how well the person does on their test supposedly relies on how far the soccer ball is kicked.

If you are driving 72 km/h along a straight road and you look to the side for 4.0 s, how far do you travel during this inattenti
Ann [662]
We know that speed equals distance between time. Therefore to find the distance we have that d = V * t. Substituting the values d = (72 Km / h) * (1h / 3600s) * (4.0 s) = 0.08Km.Therefore during this inattentive period traveled a distance of 0.08Km

alexira [117]
<span>Na+/K+ ATPase (sodium pump) is considered to be an electrogenic pump because during every transport cycle, it transports 3 Na+ ions out of the cell and 2 K+ ions into the cell. This leads to the movement of one net positive charge out of the cell making this process electrogenic.</span>

A small metal sphere has a mass of 0.14 g and a charge of -22.0 nc . it is 10 cm directly above an identical sphere with the sam
Allushta [10]
For this problem, we use the Coulomb's law written in equation as:

F = kQ₁Q₂/d²
where
F is the electrical force
k is a constant equal to 9×10⁹ 
Q₁ and Q₂ are the charge of the two objects
d is the distance between the two objects

Substituting the values:

F = (9×10⁹)(-22×10⁻⁹ C)(-22×10⁻⁹ C)/(0.10 m)²
F = 0.0004356 N

A car is up on a hydraulic lift at a garage. The wheels are free to rotate, and the drive wheels are rotating with a constant an
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Wheels are rotating with constant angular velocity let say \omega

Presence of constant angular velocity show that there is no angular acceleration thus there is no tangential acceleration.

But any particle on the rim will experience a constant acceleration towards center called centripetal acceleration.

(a) yes, there will be tangential velocity which is given by

v=r\cdot \omega

where r=radial distance from center

(b)tangential acceleration

there would be no tangential acceleration as velocity is constant

(c)centripetal acceleration

Yes, there will be centripetal acceleration given by

a_c=\omega ^2\times r
