+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 force of gravity pulls downward on a book on a table. What force prevents the book from accelerating downward?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer: The Normal Force

Explanation:

According to Third Newton's Law,  also konwn as The principle of action and reaction :

<em>"If a body A exerts an action on another body B, it performs on A another action that is the same and in the opposite direction."</em>

In this case this is what happens with the book on a table,  gravity force pulls it downward, but the Normal Force (perpendicular to the surface of the table) acts in the opposite direction with the same magnitude, preventing the book from accelerating downward.

   Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)..

From the ground to the highest point,
the rocket's AVERAGE speed is

                     (86 m) / (3.7 sec)  =  23.2 m/s  (rounded) .

It is claimed that if a lead bullet goes fast enough, it can melt completely when it comes to a halt suddenly, and all its kinet
TEA [102]

Answer:

v=346.05\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

initial temperature of the lead bullet, T_i=43^{\circ}C

latent heat of fusion of lead, L_f=2.32\times 10^4\ J.kg^{-1}

melting point of lead, T_m=327.3^{\circ}C

We have:

specific heat capacity of lead, c=129\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}

<em>According to question the whole kinetic energy gets converted into heat which establishes the relation:</em>

\rm KE=(heat\ of\ rising\ the\ temperature\ from\ 43\ to\ 327.3\ degree\ C)+(heat\ of\ melting)

\frac{1}{2} m.v^2=m.c.\Delta T+m.L_f

\frac{1}{2} m.v^2=m(c.\Delta T+L_f)

\frac{v^2}{2} =129\times(327.3-43)+23200

v=346.05\ m.s^{-1}

A zone reconnaissance involves a directed effort to obtain detailed information on all routes, obstacles, terrain, enemy forces,
son4ous [18]

Answer:

It is True

Explanation:.

A  commander assigns a zone reconnaissance mission when he seeks additional information on a zone before committing other forces in the zone. It is appropriate when the enemy situation is vague,  existing knowledge of the terrain is limited, or combat operations have altered the terrain. A zone  reconnaissance could include several route or area reconnaissance missions assigned to subordinate units.
