If A = (6i-8j) units, B = (-8i-3j) units, and C = (26i-19j) units, determine a and b

Physics
1 answer:
-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

given equation

aA + bB + C = 0

Putting the given values

a(6i-8j) +b (-8i-3j) +(26i-19j) = 0

i ( 6a - 8b ) - j ( 8a + 3 b ) = - 26 i + 19 j

comparing the coefficients of i and j

6a - 8b = -26

8a + 3b = -19.

multiplying first equation by 4 and second equation by 3  

24a - 32 b = - 104

24a + 9b = -57

9b + 32b = -57 + 104

41 b = 47

b = 1.41

6 a - 8 x 1.41 = -26

6a = -14.72

a = - 2.45

What is the charge of a Sulfur atom if it has 17 electrons?
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

-1

Explanation:

An atom contains a proton, electron and neutron as subatomic particles. The number of protons, which is the positively charged particle (+) is always equal to the number of electrons, which is the negatively charged particle (-) in A NEUTRALLY CHARGED ATOM i.e. no charge.

However, a decrease or increase in charge is dependent on the number of electrons and protons in that atom. Sulfur atom has an electron number of 16 in its neutral atom, however, when it gains one more electron to become 17, it means that the charge has become -1 because the charge = number of protons - number of electrons i.e. 16 - 17 = -1.

Measure the length of the arrow in centimeters using correct significant figures.
Zinaida [17]

Based on the very tip of the arrow the best answer would be; 3.3cm

But i could very well be wrong and it may be 3.35, but i would say 3.3 if it just wants to the nearest 10th
