+1 An electron has a negative charge so losing a charge of -1 from an uncharged, or neutral, atom will leave an ion with a positive charge.

<em>≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡Ф</em>

Answer:

The correct answer is answer choice D. +1

Explanation:

<em>Since electrons have negative charges, losing one electron will cause the atom to have a positive charge of 1. This charge comes from the protons, which, until one electron was lost, balanced out the negative charge of the electrons and caused the atom to be neutral.</em>

A wheel, starting from rest, rotates with a constant angular acceleration of 2.80 rad/s2. During a certain 5.00 s interval, it t
igomit [66]

Answer:

a) time t1 = 2.14s

b) initial angular speed w1 = 6 rad/s

Explanation:

Given that;

Initial Angular velocity = w1

Angular distance = s = 65 rad

time = t = 5 s

Angular acceleration a = 2.80 rad/s^2

Using the equation of motion;

s = w1t + (at^2)/2

w1 = (s-0.5(at^2))/t

Substituting the values;

w1 = (65 - (0.5×2.8×5^2))/5

w1 = 6rad/s

Time to reach w1 from rest;

w1 = at1

t1 = w1/a = 6/2.8 = 2.14s

a) time t1 = 2.14s

b) initial angular speed w1 = 6 rad/s

For installation with a 25-kVA, 3-phase transformer, a 440-volt primary, and a 120-volt secondary. Calculate the maximum overcur
andre [41]

Answer:

41.053 A

Explanation:

given,

three phase kVA = 25-kVA

voltage = 440 Volt

current = ?

To determine three phase kVA when volts and amperes are know

   three phase kVA = 1.73 x V x I

    I = \dfrac{three\ phase\ kVA}{1.73 \times V}

    I = \dfrac{25000}{1.73 \times 440}

           I = 32.84 A

the maximum overcurrent protection value is equal to

            = 125 % of I

            = 1.25 x 32.84

            = 41.053 A

Does it take more force to slow something down than to speed it up.
ANTONII [103]
To bring something to a stop the same force that was applied to speed it up can be used to stop it. If a greater force is used it will stop quicker.
