Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in this explanation section.

Explanation:

A binary ionic compound, a metal will always be the first element. in the formula,While a nonmetal will always be the second.The metal cation is named first,followed by the nonmetal anion.Subscript in the formula do not effects the name.

The overall charge of the compound is zero.Potassium ion is k+,While fluoride ion is F-,Since the magnitude of the charges is this would also be the case for a compound such as MgS,in which the ions are Mg2+ and S2-,For sodium nitride the sodium ion is Na=while the nitride ion is N3-.

a body initially at rest, starts moving with a constant acceleration of 2ms-2 .calculate the velocity acquired and the distance
Marta_Voda [28]

a) 10 m/s

b) 25 m

Explanation:

a)

The body is moving with a constant acceleration, therefore we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the body in this problem:

u = 0 (the body starts from rest)

a=2 m/s^2 is the acceleration

t = 5 s is the time

So, the final velocity is

v=0+(2)(5)=10 m/s

b)

In this second part, we want to calculate the distance travelled by the body.

We can do it by using another suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance travelled

Here we have

u = 0 (the body starts from rest)

a=2 m/s^2 is the acceleration

v = 10 m/s is the final velocity

Solving for s,

s=\frac{10^2-0^2}{2(2)}=25 m

15. Two like charges: A. Attract each other B. Repel each other C. Must be neutrons D. Neutralize each other
seropon [69]

Answer:

B. Repel each other

Explanation:

Two like charges have the same sign. Example an electron with a negative charge (-e) and another electron with same charge(-e). Or a proton with a positive charge (+e) and another proton with same charge (+e). Since each of  these pair charges have the same sign, they will repel each other.

On the other hand, if the charges are opposite, ie  negative charge and positive charge, they will attract each other.

B. Repel each other

Why did early organisms evolve eyes that could process visible light?
____ [38]
Scientists think the earliest version of the eye was formed in unicellular organisms, who had something called 'eyespots'. These eyespots were made up of patches of photoreceptor proteins that were sensitive to light. ... Over time, the unicellular creature would evolve, and its eyespot evolved along with it.
