Answer:

HfCl3

Explanation:

Step 1

Divide the percent by mass of each element by its relative atomic mass

Hf- 62.2/178.5, Cl-37.4/35.5

0.348, 1.054

Step2

Divide through by the lowest ratio

0.348/0.348, 1.054/0.348

1, 3

Therefore the empirical formula is HfCl3

Los hermanos Ana Victoria y José Leonardo están patinando en el hielo, con 25 y 20 kg respectivamente de masa, si Victoria empuj
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Utiliando las leyes de Newton encontraremos que la aceleración de Ana es -1.6 m/s^2.

La segunda ley de Newton dice que:

F = m*a

Fuerza es igual a masa por aceleración.

La tercera ley de Newton dice que cuando dos objetos interactuan, cadan objeto ejerce una fuerza de <u>igual magnitud pero opuesta direccion</u> en el otro.

Ahora veamos como aplicar esto.

Sabemos que la niña empuja al niño, asumamos que con una fuerza F.

Tendremos entonces la ecuación:

F = 20kg*(2m/s^2) = 40N

Y por la tercer ley de Newton, esta misma fuerza (pero en opuesta dirección) se aplica a la niña, entonces tendremos:

-40N = 25kg*a

-40N/25kg = a = -1.6 m/s²

La aceleración con la que retrosede la niña es -1.6 m/s²
