Answer:

Acids break down fabrics and can cause burns if the acids are strong.

Explanation:

A protective apron or lab coat is important when working with acids because acids break down fabrics and can cause burns if the acids are strong.

An acid is a substance that interacts with water to produce excess hydroxonium ions in an aqueous solution.
A strong acid ionizes completely in solution.
When they come in contact with a fabric, they break them down violently.
So, if they come in contact with the skin, it causes a violent break down of body tissues.
The apron acts a protective layer.

A 2 kg rubber ball is thrown at a wall horizontally at 3 m/s, and bounces back the way it came at an equal speed. A 2 kg clay ba

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

THE RUBBER BALL

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the rubber ball is $m_r = 2 \ kg$

The initial speed of the rubber ball is $u = 3 \ m/s$

The final speed at which it bounces bank $v - 3 \ m/s$

The mass of the clay ball is $m_c = 2 \ kg$

The initial speed of the clay ball is $u = 3 \ m/s$

The final speed of the clay ball is $v = 0 \ m/s$

Generally Impulse is mathematically represented as

$I = \Delta p$

where $\Delta p$ is the change in the linear momentum so

$I = m(v-u)$

For the rubber is

$I_r = 2(-3 -3)$

$I_r = -12\ kg \cdot m/s$

=> $|I_r| = 12\ kg \cdot m/s$

For the clay ball

$I_c = 2(0-3)$

$I_c = -6 \ kg\cdot \ m/s$

=> $| I_c| = 6 \ kg\cdot \ m/s$

So from the above calculation the ball with the a higher magnitude of impulse is the rubber ball

Basile [38]

The correct answer is the last option. The force that moving, charged particles exert on one another is called electromagnetic force. This force involves physical interaction between two electrically charged particles. It is seen as electromagnetic fields such as electric fields, magnetic fields and light.
