Calcium would lose 2 electrons when forming an ionic bond, so it’s new electron configuration would be 2-8-8. it loses 2 because it’s closer to having a full valence shell by losing the 2

The mass of your new motorcycle is 250kg. What is the weight on the moon in newtons
Hunter-Best [27]

Weight of motorcycle on the moon = mg

Here, g= 1.622 m/s²

So, W = 250 * 1.622 = 405.5 Kgm/s² = 405.5 N.

Prove that young modulus of elasticity and pressure have the same dimensions​
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The dimensions of Young's Modulus, as well as material stress, are the same as pressure because stress is like pressure in a solid, except with some key differences that warrant the use of different terminology.

If the ac peak voltage across a 100-ohm resistor is 120 V, then the average power dissipated by the resistor is ________
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The average power dissipated is 72 W.

Explanation:

Given;

peak voltage of the AC circuit, V₀ = 120 V

resistance of the resistor, R = 100 -ohm

The average power dissipated by the resistor is given by;

P_{avg} = \frac{1}{2} I_oV_o= I_{rms}V_{rms} = \frac{V_{rms}^2}{R}

where;

V_{rms} is the root-mean-square-voltage

V_{rms} = \frac{V_o}{\sqrt{2}} \\\\V_{rms} = \frac{120}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\V_{rms} = 84.853 \ V

The average power dissipated by the resistor is calculated as;

P_{avg} = \frac{V_{rms}^2}{R}\\\\P_{avg} = \frac{84.853^2}{100}\\\\P_{avg} = 72 \ W

Therefore, the average power dissipated is 72 W.

In a popular classroom demonstration, a cotton ball is placed in the bottom of a strong test tube. A plunger fits inside the tub
mario62 [17]

Answer:

An increase in air temperature because of its compression.

Explanation:

The Gay-Lussac's Law states that a gas pressure is directly proportional to its temperature in an enclosed system to constant volume.  

P = kT  

<em>where P: is the gas pressure, T: is the gas temperature and k: is a constant.</em>

Therefore, due to Gay-Lussac's Law, when the plunger is pushed down very rapidly, the pressure of the air increase, which leads to its temperature increase. That is why cotton flashes and burns.      

I hope it helps you!
