Nonmetals in the periodic table have a negative oxidation number. Which statement best explains why?

1 answer:

7 0

They have a negative oxidation number because nonmetals gain electrons, thus making them negatively charged ions (anions). Metals become cations and have a positive charge because they lose electrons.

A car and a motorcycle start from rest at the same time on a straight track, but the motorcycle is 25.0 m behind the car. The ca

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

t = 8.45 sec

car distance d = 132.09 m

bike distance d = 157.08 m

Explanation:

GIVEN :

motorcycle is 25 m behind the car , therefore distance need to covered by bike to overtake car is 25+ d, when car reache distance d at time t

for car

by equation of motion

$d = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

u = 0 starting from rest

$d = \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$t^2 = \frac{2d}{a}$

for bike

$d+25 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}*4.40t^2$

$t^2= \frac{d+25}{2.20}$

equating time of both

$\frac{2d}{a} = \frac{d+25}{2.20}$

solving for d we get

d = 132 m

therefore t is $= \sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2*132}{3.70}}$

t = 8.45 sec

each travelled in time 8.45 sec as

for car

$d = \frac{1}{2}*3.70 *8.45^2$

d = 132.09 m

fro bike

$d = \frac{1}{2}*4.40 *8.45^2$

d = 157.08 m

An optical disk drive in your computer can spin a disk up to 10,000 rpm (about 1045 rad/s 1045 rad/s ). If a particular disk is

Scilla [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the average angular acceleration of the disk is $4139.74\ rad/s^2$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular velocity, $\omega_i=968.7\ rad/s$

The disk comes to rest, $\omega_i=0$

Time, t = 0.234 s

We need to find the magnitude of the average angular acceleration of the disk. It is given by change in angular velocity per unit time. So,

$\alpha =\dfrac{\omega f}{t}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{968.7\ rad/s}{0.234\ s}\\\\\alpha =4139.74\ rad/s^2$

So, the magnitude of the average angular acceleration of the disk is $4139.74\ rad/s^2$ .
