An object has a -4 c charge. the object breaks into two pieces. one piece has a charge of -5

Let's call Q the initial charge of the object, which is:
Q=-4

When it breaks, the two pieces will have charge Q_1 and Q_2, and since the total charge must be conserved, the sum of these two charges must be equal to the initial charge of the object:
Q=Q_1+Q_2

We also know the charge of one of the two pieces:
Q_1=-5

So, by substituting Q and Q1 into the equation, we can find the charge of the second piece, Q2:
Q_2=Q-Q_1=-4 -(-5)=-4+5=+1

A biologist wants to increase the rate of his chemical reaction but has a limited amount of enzyme. He continues to increases th
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The substrate concentration reached Vmax

Explanation:

In this scenerio, further increase in the rate of reaction was prevented because the substrate concentration hit Vmax.

Beyond the Vmax, the substrate can no longer proceed.

  • The substrate is the reactant on which the enzyme works on.
  • Enzymes are natural organic chemical  catalysts.
  • Increasing the concentration of reactants is one of the known and proven ways to speed up the rate of reaction.
  • Since we have limited amount of enzymes, once they all bound to the substrate, no further increase in the substrate will have an effect on the rate.
  • At the optimum reaction point, all the available substrate will bond with the enzyme.
  • Beyond this, the enzymes are saturated will not further any reaction.

According to the chart, one gram of copper and
ad-work [718]

Answer:

C) three

Explanation:

Let gram of gold required be m . Let temperature change in both be Δ t .

heat absorbed = mass x specific heat x change in temperature

for copper

heat absorbed = 1 x .385 x Δt

for gold

heat absorbed = m x .129 x Δt

So

m x .129 x Δt = 1 x .385 x Δt

m = 2.98

= 3 g approximately .

Ok plz answer and tell me how to do it
kirza4 [7]
Answer: 25N

method: total force in the right hand direction is 100N and total force in the left hand direction is 125N. To get the net force, we add forces if they are in the same direction and substract if they are in opposite directions. since 100N and 125N are in opposite directions, we substract the larger value from the smaller value. Then we get 25N in the left hand direction as the final answer.
