Answer:

a neutral atom doesn't have a charge and an ion does.

Explanation:

When atoms bond they can gain or lose electrons which gives them a charge.

anion = negatively charged ion

cation = positively charged ion

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 0.10 km high. The ball strikes the ground at a point 65 m horizontally

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

given,

height of building = 0.1 km

ball strikes horizontally to ground at = 65 m

speed at which the ball strike = ?

vertical velocity = 0 m/s

time at which the ball strike

$s = \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2s}{g}}$

$t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 100}{9.8}}$

t = 4.53 s

vertical velocity at the time 4.53 s = g × t = 9.8 × 4.53 = 44.39 m/s

horizontal velocity = $\dfrac{65}{4.53}$ =14.35 m/s

speed of the ball = $\sqrt{44.39^2+14.35^2}$

= 46.65 m/s

hence, the speed of the ball just before it strike the ground = 47 m/s

The correct answer is option B

A laser of wavelength 720 nm illuminates a double slit where the separation between the slits is 0.22 mm. Fringes are seen on a

kumpel [21]

Answer:

The appropriate solution is "2.78 mm".

Explanation:

Given:

$\lambda = 720 \ nm$

or,

$= 720\times 10^{-9} \ m$

$D=0.85 \ m$

$d = 0.22 \ mm$

or,

$=0.22 \times 10^{-3} \ m$

As we know,

Fringe width is:

⇒ $\beta=\frac{\lambda D}{d}$

hence,

Separation between second and third bright fringes will be:

⇒ $\theta=\beta=\frac{\lambda D}{d}$

$=\frac{720\times 10^{-9}\times 0.85}{0.22\times 10^{-3}}$

$=2.78\times 10^{-3} \ m$

or,

$=2.78 \ mm$

An object is moving in a straight line along the y axis. As a function of time, its position is given by the equation y=3.0+4.8x

romanna [79]

Answer:

Explanation:

Instant Velocity and Acceleration

Give the position of an object as a function of time y(x), the instant velocity can be obtained by

$v(x)=y'(x)$

Where y'(x) is the first derivative of y respect to time x. The instant acceleration is given by

$a(x)=v'(x)=y''(x)$

We are given the function for y

$y(x)=3.0+4.8x +6.4x^2$

Note we have changed the last term to be quadratic, so the question has more sense.

The velocity is

$v(x)=y'(x)=4.8+12.8x$

And the acceleration is $a(x)=v'(x)=12.8$

A bullet fired vertically at a velocity of 36m/s .after 45 the bullet hit the top of a bulid how height is a bulid?

zzz [600]

Answer:

The height of the building is 8,302.5 m

Explanation:

Given;

velocity of the projectile, u = 36 m/s

time of motion, t = 45 s

Let the upward direction of the bullet be negative,

The height of the building is calculated as;

$h = ut - \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = (36\times 45) - (\frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times 45^2)\\\\h = 1620 - 9922.5\\\\h = -8,302.5 \ m\\\\The \ height \ of \ the \ building \ is \ 8,302.5 \ m$

A baseball has a mass of 0.15 kg and radius 3.7 cm. In a baseball game, a pitcher throws the ball with a substantial spin so tha

Answer:

Rotational kinetic energy = 0.099 J

Translational kinetic energy = 200 J

The moment of inertia of a solid sphere is $I = \frac{2}{5}mr^2$ .

Explanation:

Rotational kinetic energy is given by

$\text{RKE} = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2$

where I is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular speed.

For a solid sphere,

$I = \frac{2}{5}mr^2$

where m is its mass and r is its radius.

From the question,

ω = 49 rad/s

m = 0.15 kg

r = 3.7 cm = 0.037 m

$\text{RKE} = \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{2}{5} mr^2\omega^2 = \frac{1}{5} mr^2\omega^2$

$\text{RKE} = \frac{1}{5} (0.15\ \text{kg})(0.037\ \text{m})^2(49\ \text{rad/s})^2 = 0.099\text{ J}$

Translational kinetic energy is given by

$\text{TKE} = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

where v is the linear speed.

$\text{TKE} = \frac{1}{2} (0.15\ \text{kg})(52\ \text{m/s})^2 = 200\text{ J}$
