The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.

Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides of a right angled triangle and its angles.

Let x represent the east component of the cars displacement.

Using trigonometric ratio:

cos(30) = x / 20

x = 20 * cos(30)

x = 17.3 miles

The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.

two electrons are an angstrom (1x10^-10m) apart. What electrostatic force do they exert on one another?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

2.30 × 10⁻⁸ N if the two electrons are in a vacuum.

Explanation:

The Coulomb's Law gives the size of the electrostatic force F between two charged objects:

\displaystyle F = -\frac{k\cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}},

where

  • k is coulomb's constant. k = 8.99\times 10^{8}\;\text{N}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\cdot\text{C}^{-2} in vacuum.
  • q_1 and q_2 are the signed charge of the objects.
  • r is the distance between the two objects.

For the two electrons:

  • q_1 = q_2 = 1.60\times 10^{-19}\;\text{C}.
  • r = 1\times 10^{-10}\;\text{m}.
  • \displaystyle F = -\frac{k\cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}} = -\frac{8.99\times 10^{8}\times (1.60\times 10^{-19})^{2}}{(1\times 10^{-10})^{2}} = 2.30\times 10^{-8}\;\text{N}.

The sign of F is negative. In other words, the two electrons repel each other since the signs of their charges are the same.

What must happen to an atom of magnesium in order to become a magnesium ion Mg+2?
igomit [66]

Answer:

Answer is: c. It must lose two electrons and become an ion.

Magnesium (Mg) is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons (two valence electrons).

Magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.

Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.
