Answer:

t = 0.196 s

Explanation:

The speed of a pulse is determined by the characteristics of the medium, its density and its resistance to stress, as long as these remain the speed will be constant for which we can use the kinetic expressions of the uniform movement

          v = x / t

          t = x / v

calculate

          t = 2/102

          t = 0.196 s

When very electronegative atoms, like oxygen, bond to atoms with lower electronegativity, like lithium, what's the result?
umka2103 [35]

(A) The oxygen atom becomes strongly negative.

Explanation:

When a very electronegative atom like oxygen bonds to an atom with a lower electronegativity, like lithium, the oxygen atom becomes strongly negative and the lithium becomes strongly positive.

The attraction between these oppositely charged ions results in the formation ionic bond.

  • An ionic bond is an interatomic bond in which a highly electronegative atom is bonded to less electronegative one.
  • The electronegative nature of the oxgyen allows is to gain the electrons lost by weakly electronegative lthium.
  • Most metals have low electronegativity.
  • They then both will form ions.
  • The attraction between the oppositely charged ions results in an ionic/electrovalent bonding.

When bouncing a ball, the bouncing motion results in the ball ____________.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: "B" Changing Position

Great Question!

Explanation: <u><em>When a ball bounces to the ground it hits the ground with some energy. The amount of energy with which it hits the ground is kinetic energy. When it comes in the contact with the ground kinetic energy gets converted into potential energy. This potential energy again gets converted into kinetic energy and balls moves again from the ground and bounces multiple times. So, the ball ends up changing position</em></u>

One isotope of a metallic element has the mass number 65 and 35 neutrons in the nucleus. the cation derived from the isotope has
Lina20 [59]
The mass number of an isotope is the sum of the numbers of protons and the numbers of the neutron. Given that the mass number is 65 and the number of neutrons is 35, the number of protons is 30. The atom is then Zinc (Zn). The charge is equal to +2, as it lacks 2 more electrons.
