Physics
1 answer:

Answer: No, because the atomic number shown in the symbol (Z = 15) is not the atomic number of oxygen (Z = 8)

Explanation:

When we have an atom, the number in the top left is the mass number A, is equal to the sum between the number of neutrons and protons in the atom.

In this case, between protons and neutrons, we have 32.

The number at the bottom left is the atomic number Z, which is equal to the number of protons in the atom.

Particularly, this number is different for every element. For example, for the oxygen we would have Z = 8, this means that the oxygen has 8 protons.

In the image, we can see Z = 15, then the atom has 15 protons, this means that it can not be oxygen (Z = 15 is for phosphorus, then this atom would be phosphorrs). Then the symbol can not be used, because that is not oxygen.

Acid mine drainage is:
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Acid mine drainage is dissolved toxic materials wash from mines into nearby lakes and streams.

Explanation:

Acid mine drainage is the flow of acidic water with pH typically between 2 and 4, and high concentrations of other dissolved toxic materials from mines into nearby lakes and streams. It mainly occurs during metal sulfide mining, when the metal sulfide ore such as pyrite (FeS2) is exposed to water and oxygen from air to produce soluble iron and sulfuric acid.

Microorganisms, especially acidophile bacteria like Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans grow by pyrite oxidation, i.e., oxidizing the Fe²⁺ in pyrite to Fe³⁺, which again react with pyrite and water to produce sulfuric acid. Then the acidic water flows into nearby water sources and reduces the pH value of water in those sources. As a result, heavy metals such as copper, lead, mercury, etc in other mineral ores also get dissolved into the water. The action of acidophile bacteria also increases the rate and degree of acid-mine drainage process.

The acid mine drainage causes water pollution and adversely affect the aquatic plants and animals. It also results in the contamination of drinking water, corrosion of infrastructures such as bridges, etc.

In physics what does 7.56 × 5.746 equal ?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

43.43

Explanation:

5.746 x 7.56 = 43.43976

As the least number of desimal is two so our awnser should contain two digits after the decimal point.

Ans: 43.43.

A 1000 kg truck moving at 2.0 m/s runs into a concrete wall. It takes 0.5 s for the truck to completely stop. What is the magnit
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Momentum is given by

p

=

m

v

. Impulse is the change of momentum,

I

=

Δ

p

and is also equal to force times time:

I

=

F

t

. Rearranging,

F

=

I

t

=

Δ

p

t

=

0

−

20

,

000

5

=

−

4000

N

.

Explanation:

Momentum before the collision is

p

=

m

v

=

2000

⋅

10

=

20

,

000

k

g

m

s

−

1

.

Assuming the truck comes to a complete halt, the momentum after the collision is

0

k

g

m

s

−

1

.

The change in momentum,

Δ

p

, is initial minus final

→

0

−

20

000

=

−

,

000

This is called the impulse:

I

=

Δ

p

. Impulse is also equal (check the units) to force times time:

I

=

F

t

.

We can rearrange this expression to make

F

the subject:

F

I

t

=

Δ

N

The negative sign just means the force acting is in the opposite direction to the initial momentum.

(This will be the average force acting during the collision: collisions are chaotic so the force is unlikely to be constant.)
