Answer:

It becomes an Ion with either positive or negative charge

Answer:

When an atom gains/loses an electron, the atom becomes charged, and is called an ion. Gaining an electron results in a negative charge, so the atom is an anion. Losing an electron results in a positive charge, so atom ion is a cation.

A person pulls a box across the floor with a rope. The rope makes an angle of 40 degrees tot he horizontal, and a total of 125 n
RSB [31]

Answer:

The angle formed of the rope with the surface = 40°

Force applied = 125Newtons

The displacement covered by the box =25metres

W= FDcos theta

[125×40×cos(40°) ] Joules

= [ (3125×0.76604444311)]Joules

= 2393.88888472 joules(ans)

The operating temperature of a tungsten filament in an incandescent light bulb is 2450 K, and its emissivity is 0.350. Find the
natulia [17]

Answer:

The value is   A =  2.80 *10^{-4} \  m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The  operating temperature is  T  =  2450 \  K

The emissivity is  e =  0.350

 The  power rating is  P  =  200 \  W

Generally the area is mathematically represented as

      A = \frac{P}{ e *  \sigma  *  T^2}

Where  \sigma is the Stefan Boltzmann constant  with value  

      \sigma  =  5.67 *10^{-8} \  W/m^2\cdot K^4

So

     A =  \frac{200}{0.350 *  5.67*10^{-8} *  2450^{4}}

     A =  2.80 *10^{-4} \  m^2

Describe how the student should measure the time taken for the toy parachute to
PolarNik [594]

The time must be measured with respect to gravity. As it falls, it has free fall that is the force acting on it will be the gravity.With the distance in account, d = 1/2 gt²

t = √(2d/g)

Two asteroids identical to those above collide at right angles and stick together; i.e, their initial velocities were perpendicu
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

velocity = 62.89 m/s  in 58 degree measured from the x-axis

Explanation:

Relevant information:

Before the collision, asteroid A of mass 1,000 kg moved at 100 m/s, and asteroid B of mass 2,000 kg moved at 80 m/s.

Two asteroids moving with velocities collide at right angles and stick together. Asteroid A initially moving to right direction and asteroid B initially move in the upward direction.

Before collision Momentum of A = 1000 x 100 = $ 10^5$ kg - m/s in the right direction.

Before collision Momentum of B = 2000 x 80 = 1.6 x $ 10^5$  kg - m/s in upward direction.

Mass of System of after collision = 1000 + 2000 = 3000 kg

Now applying the Momentum Conservation, we get

Initial momentum in right direction = final momentum in right direction = $ 10^5$

And, Initial momentum in upward direction = Final momentum in upward direction = 1.6 x $ 10^5$

So, $ V_x = \frac{10^5}{3000} $  = $ \frac{100}{3} $  m/s

and $ V_y=\frac{160}{3}$  m/s

Therefore, velocity is = $ \sqrt{V_x^2 + V_y^2} $

                                   = $ \sqrt{(\frac{100}{3})^2 + (\frac{160}{3})^2} $

                                   = 62.89 m/s

And direction is

tan θ = $ \frac{V_y}{V_x}$     = 1.6

therefore, $ \theta = \tan^{-1}1.6 $

                   = $ 58 ^{\circ}$  from x-axis

A constant force of 8.0 N is exerted for 4.0 s on a 16-kg object initially at rest. The change in speed of this object will be:
AfilCa [17]

The change in speed of this object is 3m/s

According to Newton's second law;

F = ma

F = mv/t

Given the following parameters

Force F = 8.0N

mass m = 16kg

time t = 4.0s

Required

speed v

Substitute the given parameters into the formula

v = Ft/m

v = 8 * 6/16

v = 48/16

v = 3m/s

Hence the change in speed of this object is 3m/s
