<h3>Answer and explanation;</h3>

A neutral sodium atom contains 11 protons, 12 neutrons and 11 electrons. By removing an electron from this atom we get a positively charged Na+ ion that has a net charge of +1. Thus; Sodium atom is neutral whereas sodium ion is a charged species with a charge of +1.
Sodium ion is positively charged. In sodium ion, there are 11 protons and 12 neutrons but 10 electrons, i.e., sodium ion contains lesser number of electrons. Additionally,the size of sodium ion is smaller than that of sodium atom.

To analyze the motion of a body that is traveling along a curved path, to determine the body's acceleration, velocity, and posit

DiKsa [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the kinematic equations of linear motion and centripetal motion. For this purpose we will be guided by the definitions of centripetal acceleration to relate it to the tangential velocity. With these equations we will also relate the linear velocity for which we will find the points determined by the statement. Our values are given as

$R = 350ft$
