Answer:
Explanation:
In all atoms, the number of protons = number of electrons, as a result the atom is neutral. Losing or gaining electrons will make the atom electrically charged and we call an electrically charged atom an ion.
Ca 2+ would be the symbol because losing two negative electrons makes calcium's nucleus more positive by two protons.
Answer:
Explanation:
When objects collide, energy can be transferred from one object to another, thereby changing their motion. In such collisions, some energy is typically also transferred to the surrounding air; as a result, the air gets heated and sound is produced.
(a) The plastic rod has a length of L=1.3m. If we divide by 8, we get the length of each piece:
(b) The center of the rod is located at x=0. This means we have 4 pieces of the rod on the negative side of x-axis, and 4 pieces on the positive side. So, starting from x=0 and going towards positive direction, we have: piece 5, piece 6, piece 7 and piece 8. Each piece is 0.1625 m long. Therefore, the center of piece 5 is at 0.1625m/2=0.0812 m. And the center of piece 6 will be shifted by 0.1625m with respect to this:
(c) The total charge is
. To get the charge on each piece, we should divide this value by 8, the number of pieces:
(d) We have to calculate the electric field at x=0.7 generated by piece 6. The charge on piece 6 is the value calculated at point (c):
If we approximate piece 6 as a single charge, the electric field is given by
where
and d is the distance between the charge (center of piece 6, located at 0.2437m) and point a (located at x=0.7m). Therefore we have
poiting towards the center of piece 6, since the charge is negative.
(e) missing details on this question.
Answer:
Explanation:
Impulse and Momentum
They are similar concepts since they deal with the dynamics of objects having their status of motion changed by the sudden application of a force. The momentum at a given initial time is computed as
When a force is applied, the speed changes to 
and the new momentum is
The change of momentum is
The impulse is equal to the change of momentum of an object and it's defined as the average net force applied times the time it takes to change the object's motion
Part 1
The T-ball initially travels at 10 m/s and then suddenly it's stopped by the glove. The final speed is zero, so
The impulse is
The magnitude is
Part 2
The force can be computed from the formula
The direction of the impulse the T-ball receives is opposite to the direction of the force exerted by the ball on the glove, thus 
Answer:
1/f = 1/D' + 1/D
The magnification equation relates the ratio of the image distance and object distance to the ratio of the image height (h^i) and object height (h^o). The magnification equation is stated as follows:
M= H^i/H^o = D^i/D^o
