How many electrons does a neutral atom of the element oxygen have?

Physics
1 answer:
sesenic [268]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

8 electrons

Explanation:

Now you can figure out how many electrons, protons and neutrons Oxygen has: Atomic number (which is always the smaller of the two numbers) is 8. Hence 8 protons. Because the atom is neutral, there are also 8 electrons.

A parallel-plate capacitor in air has a plate separation of 1.76 cm and a plate area of
Monica [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Plate separation, d = 1.76 cm = 0.0176 m

Area of plates, A = 25 cm^2 = 0.0025 m^2

V = 255 V

(a) Capacitance of capacitor

C = \frac{\epsilon _0A}{d}

C = \frac{8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 0.0025}{0.0176}

C = 1.258 x 10^-12 F

charge is same before and after immersion as the battery is disconnected

q = C V

q = 1.258 x 10^-12 x 255 = 3.2 x 10^-10 C

(b)

Capacitance before, C = 1.258 x 10^-12 C

capacitance after, C' = k x C = 80 x 1.258 x 10^-12 = 100.64 x 10^-12 C

Where, k is the dielectric constant of water = 80

Potential difference after immersion, V' = V / k = 255 / 80 = 3.1875 V

(c) initial energy,

U = \frac{q^{2}}{2C}

U = \frac{(3.2\times 10^{-10})^{2}}{2\times 1.258\times 10^{-12 }}=4.07\times 10^{-8}J

Final energy

U' = \frac{q^{2}}{2C'}

U' = \frac{(3.2\times 10^{-10})^{2}}{2\times 100.64\times 10^{-12}}=5.08\times 10^{-10}J

At what distance along the z-axis is the electric field strength a maximum?
Lesechka [4]
The axial field is the integration of the field from each element of charge around the ring. Because of symmetry, the field is only in the direction of the axis. The field from an element ds in the ring is 

<span>dE = (qs*ds)cos(T)/(4*pi*e0)*(x^2 + R^2) </span>

<span>where x is the distance along the axis from the plane of the ring, R is the radius of the ring, qs is the linear charge density, T is the angle of the field from the x-axis. </span>

<span>However, cos(T) = x/sqrt(x^2 + R^2) </span>

<span>so the equation becomes </span>

<span>dE = (qs*ds)*[x/sqrt(x^2 + R^2)]/(4*pi*e0)*(x^2 + R^2) </span>

<span>dE =[qs*ds/(4*pi*e0)]*x/(x^2 + R^2)^1.5 </span>

<span>Integrating around the ring you get </span>

<span>E = (2*pi*R/4*pi*e0)*x/(x^2 + R^2)^1.5 </span>

<span>E = (R/2*e0)*x*(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 </span>

<span>we differentiate wrt x, the term R/2*e0 is a constant K, and the derivative is </span>

<span>dE/dx = K*{(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 +x*[(-1.5)*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5]*2x} </span>

<span>dE/dx = K*{(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 - 3*x^2*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5} </span>

<span>to find the maxima set this = 0, giving </span>

<span>(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 - 3*x^2*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5 = 0 </span>

<span>mult both side by (x^2 + R^2)^2.5 to get </span>

<span>(x^2 + R^2) - 3*x^2 = 0 </span>

<span>-2*x^2 + R^2 = 0 </span>

<span>-2*x^2 = -R^2 </span>

<span>x = (+/-)R/sqrt(2) </span>

A particle with an initial linear momentum of 2.00 kg-m/s directed along the positive x-axis collides with asecond particle, whi
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of momentum along x and y axis.

Let the final momentum of second particle be p₁ along x axis and p₂ along y axis.

Considering momentum along x axis

2 + 0 = 3 cos 45 + p₁

p₁ = 2-2.12 = - 0.12 kg m/s

Considering momentum along y axis

4 + 0 = 3 sin 45 + p₂

p₂ = 4-2.12 = 1.88  kg m/s

Final momentum = √ ( p₁² + p₂² )

=√ ( .12² + 1.88² )

= 1.88 approx
