When an oxygen atom forms an ion, it gains two electrons

1 answer:

5 0

Note the atom of the Oxygen is electrically neutral, meaning it has equal numbers of electrons and protons.

So if it gains 2 electrons, it would have excess of 2 electrons, hence its charge would be -2.

Option B.

An object is dropped from a platform 100 feet high. Ignoring wind resistance, what will its speed be when it reaches the ground?

ICE Princess25 [194]

if we assume the origin is at the dropping point and the object is merely dropped and not thrown up or down then y0 = 0 and v0 = 0. The equation reduces to 

y = 0 + 0t + ½gt² 
y = ½gt² 

t = √(2y/g) 

in the ft - lb - s system 

y = -100 ft 
g = -32.2 ft / s² 

t = √(2y/g) 
t = √(2(-100) / (-32.2)) 
t = 2.5 s

To answer the two questions, we need to know two important equations involving centripetal movement:

v = ωr (ω represents angular velocity in radians)

a = $\frac{v^{2}}{r}$

Let's apply the first equation to question a:

v = ωr

v = ((1800*2π) / 60) * 0.26

Wait. 2π? 0.26? 60? Let's break down why these numbers are written differently. In order to use the equation v = ωr, it is important that the units of ω is in radians. Since one revolution is equivalent to 2π radians, we can easily do the conversion from revolutions to radians by multiplying it by 2π. As for 0.26, note that the question asks for the units to be m/s. Since we need meters, we simply convert 26 cm, our radius, into meters. The revolutions is also given in revs/min, and we need to convert it into revs/sec so that we can get our final units correct. As a result, we divide the rate by 60 to convert minutes into seconds.

Back to the equation:

v = ((1800*2π)/60) * 0.26

v = (1800*2(3.14)/60) * 0.26

v = (11304/60) * 0.26

v = 188.4 * 0.26

v = 48.984

v = 49 (m/s)

Now that we know the linear velocity, we can find the centripetal acceleration:

a = $\frac{v^{2}}{r}$

a = $\frac{49^{2}}{0.26}$

a = 9234.6 (m/ $s^{2}$ )

Wow! That's fast!

We now have our answers for a and b:

a. 49 (m/s)

b. 9.2 * $10^{3}$ (m/ $s^{2}$ )

If you have any questions on how I got to these answers, just ask!

A box full of charged plastic balls sits on a table. The electric force exerted on a ball near one upper corner of the box has c

tatuchka [14]

We have that the values for F north, F east, F up are

$F_N=1.09090909*10^{-5}$
$F_E=5.18181818*10^{-6}$
$F_E=2*10^{-6}$

From the Question we are told that

electric force $F_1 = 1.2 x 10^{-3} N(N)$

electric force , $F_2=5.7 x 10^{-4} N(E)$

electric force , $F_3=2.2 x 10^{-4} N (U)$

charge on this ball one $q_1= 110 nC.$

charge on this ball two $q_2= -50 nC.$

Generally the equation for the F north is mathematically given as

$F_N=\frac{F_1}{q_1}\\\\F_N=\frac{ 1.2 * 10^{-3} )}{110}$

$F_N=1.09090909*10^{-5}$

For F East

$F_E=\frac{F_2}{q_1}\\\\F_E=\frac{5.7 x 10^-4 }{110}$

$F_E=5.18181818*10^{-6}$

For F UP

$F_U=\frac{F_3}{q_1}\\\\F_U=\frac{2.2 x 10^-4 }{110}$

$F_E=2*10^{-6}$

What is the study of kinematics based upon ? thankyou ~

NikAS [45]

Kinematics is the study of the motion of a system of bodies without directly considering the forces or potential fields affecting the motion. In other words, kinematics examines how momentum and energy are shared among interacting bodies.
