Answer:

A.  5 N to the left

<em>Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:</em>

<em>With a force of 5 newtons, Amanda pushes the stack of books to the right. At the same time, Jeremy, her little brother, pushes the stack of books to the left with a force of 10 newtons. </em>

<em>What is the direction and magnitude of the resulting force? </em>

<em>A.  5 N to the left </em>

<em>B.  5 N to the right </em>

<em>C.  10 N to the right </em>

<em>D.  10 N to the left </em>

Explanation:

Forces are vector quantities.

Vector quantities are quantities that can be represented both in magnitude and direction.

Forces have both magnitude and direction. Forces can be directed positively or negatively.

For example, in the question above, if forces acting to the right are considered to be in the positive direction, forces acting to the left are considered to be acting in a negative direction.

In the addition of forces, both their magnitude and direction are taken into consideration.

In the example above, taking forces acting to the right as positive and to the left as negative, the sum of the forces is:

Resultant force, F = (5 N) + (-10N)

F = -5 N

Therefore, the net force is 5 N and is directed towards the left

The sun shines with equal intensity on a farm field, an asphalt road, and the ocean. Which material will heat up most during the
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The sun shines with equal intensity on a farm field, an asphalt road and the ocean. So basically asphalt road are heated the most during the day

Explanation:

The heat of water is more than the specific heat of sand.

Therefore sand is hot.

.Water is reflecting solar radiation.  

The land retains more heat since the land absorb solar radiation.

Therefore the land surfaces warm faster.

Since water is a slow conductor of heat, it need more energy than the sand. so its temperature is increasing.  soil loses heat faster.  

The ocean heats slower than land , the land air is more warmer than lean air. After the sun set the land loses heat quickly .The air above it cools.

Answer: devices are powered by moving water and are different from traditional hydropower turbines in that they are placed directly in a river, ocean or tidal current. They generate power only from the kinetic energy of moving water (current).

How many moles of O2 are produced when 0.500mol of KO2 reacts in this fashion?
Shtirlitz [24]
I think you means the KO2 reacts with H2O. The equation of this reaction is 4KO2+2H2O->4KOH +3O2. The ratio of mole number of O2 and KO2 is 3:4. So the mole number of O2 produced is 0.500/4*3=0.375 mol.

Calculate moles of oxygen atoms in 0.68mol of KMnO4
Dominik [7]
Alright, so that means we have 0.68 mol of the compound


For each 1 mol of the compound, we have 4*1 oxygens (because there are four oxygens in the formula)
Therefore for each 0.68 mol of the compound, we have 4*0.68 moles of oxygen!
