Answer:

In conductive materials, the outer electrons in each atom can easily come or go, and are called free electrons. In insulating materials, the outer electrons are not so free to move. All metals are electrically conductive.

IN THIS FORMULA FOR WATER WHAT DOES THE SUBSCRIPT 2 INDICATE
masha68 [24]
The chemical formular for water is H2O.
The H aspect of the formula stands for hydrogen gas and the subscript 2 which is attached to the H symbol signifies that two atoms of hydrogen are joined together, that is two atom of hydrogen are present.
The chemical formula of water indicates that, two atom of hydrogen react with one atom of oxygen to form one molecule of water.
In chemical formulae, subscripts are normally used to indicate the number of atoms that are present in a molecule.

A diver shines an underwater searchlight at the surface of a pond (n = 1.33). At what angle (relative to the surface) will the l
allsm [11]

Answer:

41.2°

Explanation:

Total internal reflection is the reflection of the incident ray at the interface between two media in which one of the media has a lower refractive index than the other. It occurs when the angle of incidence in the denser medium exceeds the critical angle.

The critical angle is the angle of incidence in the denser medium when the angle of incidence in the less dense medium is 90°.

Since

n= 1/sin C

C= sin^-(1/n)

C= sin^-(1/1.33)

C= 48.8°

Hence angle of incidence= 90-48.8 = 41.2°

What can always be said about a negatively-charged ion?
KiRa [710]

Answer: A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

Explanation:

First, we know that the elementary negative charge is the electron, while the positive one is the proton. Such that both have the same charge in magnitude, but a different sign. Such that if we have the same number of electrons and protons in an atom, the charge of this atom will be neutral.

And an ion is an atom with a different number of electrons and protons, so the charge of the atom is not neutral.

Then if we have a negatively-charged ion, the charge of this atom is negative. Then we must have a larger number of electrons (the negative ones) than protons (the positive ones)

Then the correct option is:

A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

A Thomson's gazelle can run at very high speeds, but its acceleration is relatively modest. A reasonable model for the sprint of
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration = 4.2 m/s²

Time = 6.5 s

Suppose we need to find the gazelles top speed

The speed is equal to the product of acceleration and time.

We need to calculate the gazelles top speed

Using formula of speed

v=at

Where, v = speed

a = acceleration

t = time

Put the value into the formula

v=4.2\times6.5

v=27.3\ m/s

Hence, The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.

Heartburn is a form of indigestion felt as a burning sensation in the chest when stomach acid comes back up into the esophagus.
xenn [34]
The antacid is basic so it neutralizes acidity or lowers it. Then if it goes into the esophagus, it's not as strong and it doesn't hurt, and it also calms your stomach because the acidity in your stomach is also lower. Antacids are therefore taken by many people, especially as they grow older and things like heartburn become more common.
