The atom must lose 2 electrons
Explanation:
An atom consists of three types of particles:
- Protons, in the nucleus, with positive electric charge
- Neutrons, in the nucleus, with no electric charge
- Electrons, orbiting around the nucleus, with negative electric charge
As a result, the net electric charge of an atom is given by the number of protons minus the number of electrons:
Q = #p - #e
For a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons is the same, so the net charge is zero.
In order for an atom to have a positive charge of +2, it means that there must be 2 protons more than the number of electrons. Since atoms exchange electrons (and not protons), this means that the atom must have "lost" 2 electrons.
In this problem, we have an atom with 13 protons: this means that initially it also has 13 electrons. However, later the atom lost 2 electrons, and as a result, the final charge is +2e.

Answer:
The force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A' is 240 N
Explanation:
The given parameters for the pole AB are;
The length of the pole, l = 10.0 m
The weight of the pole, W = 600 N ↓
The distance of the center of gravity of the pole from the side 'A' = 4.0 m
Let '' represent the force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A' and let a force applied in the upwards direction be positive
For equilibrium, the sum of moment about the point 'B' = 0, therefore, taking moment about 'B', we have
× 10.0 m - W × 4.0 m = 0
∴ × 10.0 m = W × 4.0 m = 600 N × 4.0 m
× 10.0 m = 600 N × 4.0 m
∴ = 600 N × 4.0 m/(10.0 m) = 240 N
The force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A', = 240 N.
