Balance the following chemical equations
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Enter an equation of a chemical reaction and click 'Balance'. The answer will appear below

Always use the upper case for the first character in the element name and the lower case for the second character.

To enter an electron into a chemical equation use {-} or e

To enter an ion specify charge after the compound in curly brackets: {+3} or {3+} or {3}. Example: Fe{3+} + I{-} =...

Substitute immutable groups in chemical compounds to avoid ambiguity. For instance equation C6H5C2H5 + O2 = C6H5OH + CO2...

A proton and an electron are moving in the +x direction in a magnetic field in the +z
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

A proton and electron are moving in the positive x direction, this shows that their velocity will be in the positive x direction

V = v•i

Magnetic field Is the positive z direction

B = B•k

A. For proton.

Proton has a positive charge of q

Direction of force on proton

Force is given as

F = q(v×B)

F = q( v•i × B•k)

F = qvB (i×k)

From vectors i×k = -j

F = -qvB •j

Then, for the positive charge, the force will act in the negative direction of the y-axis

B. For electron

Electron has a negative of -q

Direction of force on proton

Force is given as

F = q(v×B)

F = -q( v•i × B•k)

F = -qvB (i×k)

From vectors i×k = -j

F = --qvB •j

F = qvB •j

Then, for the negative charge, the force will act in the positive direction of the y-axis

a team of dogs is pulling a sled with a net force of 2000 N. The sled is accelerating a 2.2 m/s^2. What is the mass of the sled?
sweet-ann [11.9K]
Force, F = ma

Where m = mass in kg, a = acceleration in m/s²,  Force, F is in N.

F = ma

2000 = m*2.2

2.2m = 2000

m = 2000/2.2

m ≈ 909.09

Mass is ≈ 909.09 kg.

Astronaut Rob leaves Earth in a spaceship at a speed of 0.960c relative to an observer on Earth. Rob's destination is a star sys
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

A) 15.0 years

Explanation:

Due to the distance to the star system is in light-year units, we can compute the time by using:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{14.4 l-y}{0.960}=15l-y

then, Rob will take to complete the trip about 15 light-years.

hope this helps!!
