Answer:

93.125 × 10^(19)

Explanation:

We are told the asteroid has acquired a net negative charge of 149 C.

Thus;

Q = -149 C

charge on electron has a value of:

e = -1.6 × 10^(-19) C

Now, for us to determine the excess electrons on the asteroid, we will just divide the net charge in excess on the asteroid by the charge of a single electron.

Thus;

n = Q/e

n = -149/(-1.6 × 10^(-19))

n = 93.125 × 10^(19)

Thus, it has 93.125 × 10^(19) more electrons than protons

nydimaria [60]

Answer: If there is a higher friction, the opposition force is higher so that it can reduce our speed. So, a factor that affects friction is the roughness or smoothness of the surface of the object. In comparison of the table with the fabric, the fabric will have a more opposition force. As the surface of the fabric is usually rougher than the surface of a smooth table. As there is more friction on a fabric, we will feel more opposition force on our finger tip.

Hope it helped! :>

what is the main reason that attitudes are more often revealed in spoken rather than written language
pishuonlain [190]
It's a combination of all those things. probably because we are taught from an early age to write in an academic fashion, giving balanced arguments and a conclusion. When speaking from the heart, there is no opposing argument nor is there a conclusion, just emotion.
