When looking at the chemical symbol, the charge of the ion is displayed as the
-superscript
-subscript
-coefficient
-product
Answer:
superscript
Explanation:
When looking at the chemical symbol, the charge of the ion is displayed as the Superscript. This is because the charge of ions is usually written up on the chemical symbol while the atom/molecule is usually written down the chemical symbol. The superscript refers to what is written up on the formula while the subscript is written down on the formula.
An example is H2O . The 2 present represents two molecule of oxygen and its written as the subscript while Fe2+ in which the 2+ is written up is known as the superscript.

A 750 kg car is moving at 20.0 m/s at a height of 5.0 m above the bottom of a hill when it runs out of gas. From there, the car coasts. a. Ignoring frictional forces and air resistance, what is the car’s kinetic energy and velocity at the bottom of the hill
Answer:
Explanation:
Kinetic energy at the height = 1/2 m v²
= 1/2 x 750 x 20²
= 150000 J
Its potential energy = mgh
= 750 x 9.8 x 5
=36750 J
Total energy = 186750 J
Its total kinetic energy will be equal to 186750 J , according to conservation of mechanical energy
If v be its velocity at the bottom
1/2 m v² = 186750
v = √498
= 22.31 m /s
Five identical cylinders are each acted on by forces of equal magnitude. Which force exerts the biggest torque about the central axes of the cylinders
Answer:
From the image, the force as shown in option A will exert the biggest torque on the cylinder about its central axes.
Explanation:
The image is shown below.
Torque is the product of a force about the center of rotation of a body, and the radius through which the force acts. For a given case such as this, in which the cylinders are identical, and the forces are of equal magnitude, the torque at the maximum radius away from the center will exert the maximum torque. Also, the direction of the force also matters. To generate the maximum torque, the force must be directed tangentially away from the circle formed by the radius through which the force acts away from the center. Option A satisfies both condition and hence will exert the most torque on the cylinder.
Which of the following changes will increase the frequency of the lowest frequency standing sound wave on a stretching string?Choose all that apply.A. Replacing the string with a thicker stringB. Plucking the string harderC. Doubling the length of the string
Answer:
A, C
Explanation:
Since the frequency is inversely proportional to the length of a string, then I want to increase the frequency of the lowest
A. Replacing the string with a thicker string.
Thicker strings have more density. The more density the string has, the lower the sound.
Mathematically, we can see the proportionality (direct and inverse) by looking at those formulas for Frequency and Speed, when combined:
For:
[tex]f=\frac{v}{\lambda}[/tex]
[tex]f=\frac{v}{\lambda}*\sqrt{\frac{T}{D} }[/tex]
See above, how density (D) and [tex](\lambda)[/tex] wave length are inversely proportional.
C. Doubling the length of the string.
Because the length of the string is inversely proportional to the frequency.
The longer the string, the lower the frequency.
So, if we double string, we'll hear lower sounds in any string instrument
--
In short, for A, and C We can justify both since length and density are inversely proportional to the Frequency, we need longer or thicker string.

A 1,470-N force pushes a 500-kg piano up along a ramp. What is the work done by the 1,470-N pushing force on the piano as it moves 10 m up the ramp
Answer:
W = 14700 J
Explanation:
This is an exercise on Newton's second law.
To solve it we must fix a coordinate system, the most common is an axis parallel to the ramp and the other perpendicular axis, we write Newton's second law
Y Axis . Perpendicular to the ramp
N - Wy = 0
X axis. Parallel to the ramp, we assume it is positive when the ramp is going up
F - Wx = m a
in this case F = 1470 N and it is parallel to the plane.
Work is defined by
W = F .d
boldface indicates vectors
W = F d cos θ
let's calculate
W = 1470 10 cos 0
W = 14700 J
An ice skater is in a fast spin with her arms held tightly to her body. When she extends her arms, which of the following statements in NOT true?
A. Het total angular momentum has decreased
B. She increases her moment of inertia
C. She decreases her angular speed
D. Her moment of inertia changes
Answer:
A. Her total angular momentum has decreased
Explanation:
Total angular momentum is the product of her moment of inertia and angular velocity. In this scenario it doesn’t decrease but rather remains constant as the movement of the arms doesn’t have any effect on the total angular momentum.
The movement of the arm under certain conditions however has varying effects and changes on parameters such as the moment of inertia and the angular speed.
A dumbbell-shaped object is composed by two equal masses, m, connected by a rod of negligible mass and length r. If I1 is the moment of inertia of this object with respect to an axis passing through the center of the rod and perpendicular to it and I2 is the moment of inertia with respect to an axis passing through one of the masses, it follows that:
a. I1 > I2
b. I2 > I1.
c. I1 = I2.
Answer:
B: I2>I1

An 88.0 kg spacewalking astronaut pushes off a 645 kg satellite, exerting a 110 N force for the 0.450 s it takes him to straighten his arms. How far apart are the astronaut and the satellite after 1.40 min?
Answer:
The astronaut and the satellite are 53.718 m apart.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of spacewalking astronaut, = 88 kg
mass of satellite, = 645 kg
force exerts by the satellite, F = 110N
time for this action, t = 0.45 s
Determine the acceleration of the satellite after the push
F = ma
a = F / m
a = 110 / 645
a = 0.171 m/s²
Determine the final velocity of the satellite;
v = u + at
where;
u is the initial velocity of the satellite = 0
v = 0 + 0.171 x 0.45
v = 0.077 m/s
Determine the displacement of the satellite after 1.4 m
d₁ = vt
d₁ = 0.077 x (1.4 x 60)
d₁ = 6.468 m
According to Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite;
Determine the backward acceleration of the astronaut after the push;
F = ma
a = F / m
a = 110 / 88
a = 1.25 m/s²
Determine the final velocity of the astronaut
v = u + at
The initial velocity of the astronaut = 0
v = 1.25 x 0.45
v = 0.5625 m/s
Determine the displacement of the astronaut after 1.4 min
d₂ = vt
d₂ = 0.5625 x (1.4 x 60)
d₂ = 47.25 m
Finally, determine the total separation between the astronaut and the satellite;
total separation = d₁ + d₂
total separation = 6.468 m + 47.25 m
total separation = 53.718 m
Therefore, the astronaut and the satellite are 53.718 m apart.
The voltage between the cathode and the screen of a television set is 30 kV. If we assume a speed of zero for an electron as it leaves the cathode, what is its speed (m/s) just before it hits the screen
Answer:
The speed is [tex]v =10.27 *10^{7} \ m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The voltage is [tex]V = 30 kV = 30*10^{3} V[/tex]
The initial velocity of the electron is [tex]u = 0 \ m/s[/tex]
Generally according to the law of energy conservation
Electric potential Energy = Kinetic energy of the electron
So
[tex]PE = KE[/tex]
Where
[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2} * m* v^2[/tex]
Here m is the mass of the electron with a value of [tex]m = 9.11 *10^{-31} \ kg[/tex]
and
[tex]PE = e * V[/tex]
Here e is the charge on the electron with a value [tex]e = 1.60 *10^{-19} \ C[/tex]
=> [tex]e * V = \frac{1}{2} * m * v^2[/tex]
=> [tex]v = \sqrt{ \frac{2 * e * V}{m} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]v = \sqrt{ \frac{2 * (1.60*10^{-19}) * 30*10^{3}}{9.11 *10^{-31}} }[/tex]
[tex]v =10.27 *10^{7} \ m/s[/tex]

Answer:
Length of a tube = 1.574 m
Explanation:
Given:
Fundamental frequency (f1) = 108 Hz
First overtone (f2) = 216 Hz
Speed of sound (v) = 340 m/s
Find:
Length of a tube
Computation:
We know that,
f = v / λ
f = nv / 2L [n = number 1,2,3]
So,
f1 = 1(340) / 2L
f1 = 170 / L
L = 170 / 108 = 1.574 m
f2 = 2(340) / 2L
L = 340 / 216
L = 1.574 m

A 30 L electrical radiator containing heating oil is placed in a 50 m3room. Both the roomand the oil in the radiator are initially at 10◦C. The radiator with a rating of 1.8 kW is nowturned on. At the same time, heat is lost from the room at an average rate of 0.35 kJ/s.After some time, the average temperature is measured to be 20◦C for the air in the room,and 50◦C for the oil in the radiator. Taking the density and the specific heat of the oil to be950 kg/m3and 2.2 kJ/kg◦C, respectively, determine how long the heater is kept on. Assumethe room is well sealed so that there are no air leaks.
Answer:
Explanation:
Heat absorbed by oil
= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature
= 30 x 10⁻³ x 950 x 2.2 x 10³ x ( 50-10 )
= 25.08 x 10⁵ J
Heat absorbed by air
= 50 x 1.2 x 1.0054 x 10³ x ( 20-10 )
= 6.03 x 10⁵ J
Total heat absorbed = 31.11 x 10⁵ J
If time required = t
heat lost from room
= .35 x 10³ t
Total heat generated in time t
= 1.8 x 10³ t
Heat generated = heat used
1.8 x 10³ t = .35 x 10³ t + 31.11 x 10⁵
1.45 x 10³ t = 31.11 x 10⁵
t = 31.11 x 10⁵ / 1.45 x 10³
t = 2145.5 s
A solenoid with 500 turns, 0.10 m long, carrying a current of 4.0 A and with a radius of 10-2 m will have what strength magnetic field at its center
Answer:
B = 0.025T
Explanation:
In order to calculate the strength of the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid, you use the following formula:
[tex]B=\frac{\mu N i}{L}[/tex] (1)
μ: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4π*10^-7 T/A
N: turns of the solenoid = 500
i: current = 4.0A
L: length of the solenoid = 0.10m
You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (1):
[tex]B=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(500)(4.0A)}{0.10m}=0.025T[/tex]
The strength of the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid = 0.025T
Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic flux through the surface of a circular plate is 6.80 10-5 T · m2 when it is placed in a region of uniform magnetic field that is oriented at 43.0° to the vertical. The radius of the plate is 8.50 cm. Determine the strength of the magnetic field. mT A circular plate of radius r is lying flat. A field of arrows labeled vector B rising up and to the right pass through the plate.
Answer:
B = 4.1*10^-3 T = 4.1mT
Explanation:
In order to calculate the strength of the magnetic field, you use the following formula for the magnetic flux trough a surface:
[tex]\Phi_B=S\cdot B=SBcos\alpha[/tex] (1)
ФB: magnetic flux trough the circular surface = 6.80*10^-5 T.m^2
S: surface area of the circular plate = π.r^2
r: radius of the circular plate = 8.50cm = 0.085m
B: magnitude of the magnetic field = ?
α: angle between the direction of the magnetic field and the normal to the surface area of the circular plate = 43.0°
You solve the equation (1) for B, and replace the values of the other parameters:
[tex]B=\frac{\Phi_B}{Scos\alpha}=\frac{6.80*10^{-5}T.m^2}{(\pi (0.085m)^2)cos(43.0\°)}\\\\B=4.1*10^{-3}T=4.1mT[/tex]
The strength of the magntetic field is 4.1mT

An object attached to a horizontal spring is oscillating back and forth along a frictionless surface. The maximum speed of the object is 1.38 m/s, and its maximum acceleration is 6.83 m/s2. How much time elapses betwen an instant when the object's speed is at a maximum and the next instant when its acceleration is at a maximum
Answer:
t = 0.31s
Explanation:
In order to calculate the time that the object takes to travel from the point with its maximum speed to the point with the maximum acceleration, you first use the following formulas, for the maximum speed and the maximum acceleration:
[tex]v_{max}=\omega A\\\\a_{max}=\omega^2A[/tex]
A: amplitude
v_max = 1.38m/s
a_max = 6.83m/s^2
w: angular frequency
From the previous equations you can obtain the angular frequency w.
You divide vmax and amax, and solve for w:
[tex]\frac{v_{max}}{a_{max}}=\frac{\omega A}{\omega^2 A}=\frac{1}{\omega}\\\\\omega=\frac{a_{max}}{v_{max}}=\frac{6.83m/s^2}{1.38m/s^2}=4.94\frac{rad}{s}[/tex]
Next, you take into account that the maximum speed is obtained when the object passes trough the equilibrium point, and the maximum acceleration for the maximum elongation, that is, the amplitude. In such a trajectory the time is T/4 being T the period.
You calculate the period by using the information about the angular frequency:
[tex]T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{4.94rad/s}=1.26s[/tex]
Then the required time is:
[tex]t=\frac{T}{4}=\frac{1.26s}{4}=0.31s[/tex]
A wave with a frequency of 1200 Hz propagates along a wire that is under a tension of 800 N. Its wavelength is 39.1 cm. What will be the wavelength if the tension is decreased to 600 N and the frequency is kept constant
Answer:
The wavelength will be 33.9 cm
Explanation:
Given;
frequency of the wave, F = 1200 Hz
Tension on the wire, T = 800 N
wavelength, λ = 39.1 cm
[tex]F = \frac{ \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }}{\lambda}[/tex]
Where;
F is the frequency of the wave
T is tension on the string
μ is mass per unit length of the string
λ is wavelength
[tex]\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } = F \lambda\\\\\frac{T}{\mu} = F^2\lambda^2\\\\\mu = \frac{T}{F^2\lambda^2} \\\\\frac{T_1}{F^2\lambda _1^2} = \frac{T_2}{F^2\lambda _2^2} \\\\\frac{T_1}{\lambda _1^2} = \frac{T_2}{\lambda _2^2}\\\\T_1 \lambda _2^2 = T_2\lambda _1^2\\\\[/tex]
when the tension is decreased to 600 N, that is T₂ = 600 N
[tex]T_1 \lambda _2^2 = T_2\lambda _1^2\\\\\lambda _2^2 = \frac{T_2\lambda _1^2}{T_1} \\\\\lambda _2 = \sqrt{\frac{T_2\lambda _1^2}{T_1}} \\\\\lambda _2 = \sqrt{\frac{600* 0.391^2}{800}}\\\\\lambda _2 = \sqrt{0.11466} \\\\\lambda _2 =0.339 \ m\\\\\lambda _2 =33.9 \ cm[/tex]
Therefore, the wavelength will be 33.9 cm
An empty parallel plate capacitor is connected between the terminals of a 9.0-V battery and charged up. The capacitor is then disconnected from the battery, and the spacing between the capacitor plates is doubled. As a result of this change, what is the new voltage between the plates of the capacitor
Answer:
The new voltage between the plates of the capacitor is 18 V
Explanation:
The charge on parallel plate capacitor is calculated as;
q = CV
Where;
V is the battery voltage
C is the capacitance of the capacitor, calculated as;
[tex]C = \frac{\epsilon _0A}{d} \\\\q =CV = (\frac{\epsilon _0A}{d})V = \frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d}[/tex]
[tex]q = \frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d}[/tex]
where;
ε₀ is permittivity of free space
A is the area of the capacitor
d is the space between the parallel plate capacitors
If only the space between the capacitors is doubled and every other parameter is kept constant, the new voltage will be calculated as;
[tex]q = \frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d} \\\\\frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d} = \frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d} \\\\\frac{V_1}{d_1} = \frac{V_2}{d_2} \\\\V_2 = \frac{V_1d_2}{d_1} \\\\(d_2 = 2d_1)\\\\V_2 = \frac{V_1*2d_1}{d_1} \\\\(V_1 = 9V)\\\\V_2 = \frac{9*2d_1}{d_1} \\\\V_2 = 9*2\\\\V_2 = 18 \ V[/tex]
Therefore, the new voltage between the plates of the capacitor is 18 V
A commercial diffraction grating has 500 lines per mm. Part A When a student shines a 480 nm laser through this grating, how many bright spots could be seen on a screen behind the grating
Answer:
The number of bright spot is m =4
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The number of lines is [tex]s = 500 \ lines / mm = 500 \ lines / 10^{-3} m[/tex]
The wavelength of the laser is [tex]\lambda = 480 nm = 480 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]
Now the the slit is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]d = \frac{1}{s} = \frac{1}{500} * 10^{-3} \ m[/tex]
Generally the diffraction grating is mathematically represented as
[tex]dsin\theta = m \lambda[/tex]
Here m is the order of fringes (bright fringes) and at maximum m [tex]\theta = 90^o[/tex]
So
[tex]\frac{1}{500} * sin (90) = m * (480 *10^{-3})[/tex]
=> [tex]m = 4[/tex]
This implies that the number of bright spot is m =4

a. The distance between the maxima decreases.
b. The distance between the minima decreases.
c. The distance between the maxima stays the same.
d. The distance between the minima increases.
e. The distance between the minima stays the same.
Answer:
he correct answers are a, b
Explanation:
In the two-slit interference phenomenon, the expression for interference is
d sin θ= m λ constructive interference
d sin θ = (m + ½) λ destructive interference
in general this phenomenon occurs for small angles, for which we can write
tanθ = y / L
tan te = sin tea / cos tea = sin tea
sin θ = y / La
un
derestimate the first two equations.
Let's do the calculation for constructive interference
d y / L = m λ
the distance between maximum clos is and
y = (me / d) λ
this is the position of each maximum, the distance between two consecutive maximums
y₂-y₁ = (L 2/d) λ - (L 1 / d) λ₁ y₂ -y₁ = L / d λ
examining this equation if the wavelength decreases the value of y also decreases
the same calculation for destructive interference
d y / L = (m + ½) κ
y = [(m + ½) L / d] λ
again when it decreases the decrease the distance
the correct answers are a, b
An asteroid that has an orbital period of 3 years will have an orbital with a semi-major axis of about _____ years.
Answer:
An asteroid that has an orbital period of 3 years will have an orbital with a semi-major axis of about 2 years.
Explanation:
Given;
orbital period of 3 years, P = 3 years
To calculate the years of an orbital with a semi-major axis, we apply Kepler's third law.
Kepler's third law;
P² = a³
where;
P is the orbital period
a is the orbital semi-major axis
(3)² = a³
9 = a³
a = [tex]a = \sqrt[3]{9} \\\\a = 2.08 \ years[/tex]
Therefore, An asteroid that has an orbital period of 3 years will have an orbital with a semi-major axis of about 2 years.

Complete Question
3) What is the transmitted intensity of light if unpolarized light passes through a single polarizing filter and the initial intensity is 80 W/m²?
- What is the transmitted intensity of light if an additional polarizer is added perpendicular to the first polarizer in the setup described in Question 3 (the setup)? Show all work in your answer.
The image of this setup attached to this question as obtained from online is attached to this solution.
Solution
3) When unpolarized light passes through a single polarizer, the intensity of the light is cut in half.
Hence, if the initial intensity of unpolarized light is I₀ = 80 W/m²
The intensity of the light rays thay pass through the first single polarizer = I₁ = (I₀/2) = (80/2) = 40 W/m²
- According to Malus' law, the intensity of transmitted light through a polarizer is related to the intensity of the incident light and the angle at which the polarizer is placed with respect to the major axis of the polarizer before the current polarizer of concern.
I₂ = I₁ cos² θ
where
I₂ = intensity of light that passes through the second polarizer = ?
I₁ = Intensity of light from the first polarizer that is incident upon the second polarizer = 40 W/m²
θ = angle between the major axis of the first and second polarizer = 30°
I₂ = 40 (cos² 30°) = 40 (0.8660)² = 30 W/m²
In the same vein, the intensity of light that passes through the third/additional polarizer is related to the intensity of light that passes through the second polarizer and is incident upon this third/additional polarizer through
I₃ = I₂ cos² θ
I₃ = intensity of light that passes through the third/additional polarizer = ?
I₂ = Intensity of light from the second polarizer that is incident upon the third/additional polarizer = 30 W/m²
θ = angle between the major axis of the second and third/additional polarizer = 60° (although, it is 90° with respect to the first polarizer, it is the angle it makes with the major axis of the second polarizer, 60°, that matters)
I₃ = 30 (cos² 60°) = 30 (0.5)² = 7.5 W/m²

When a nerve cell fires, charge is transferred across the cell membrane to change the cell's potential from negative to positive. For a typical nerve cell, 9.2pC of charge flows in a time of 0.52ms .What is the average current through the cell membrane?
Answer:
The average current will be "17.69 nA".
Explanation:
The given values are:
Charge,
q = 9.2 pC
Time,
t = 0.52ms
The equivalent circuit of the cell surface is provided by:
⇒ [tex]i_{avg}=\frac{charge}{t}[/tex]
Or,
⇒ [tex]i_{avg}=\frac{q}{t}[/tex]
On substituting the given values, we get
⇒ [tex]=\frac{9.2\times 10^{-12}}{0.52\times 10^{-3}}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=17.69^{-9}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=17.69 \ nA[/tex]
Two identical small charged spheres are a certain distance apart, and each one initially experiences an electrostatic force of magnitude F due to the other. With time, charge gradually leaks off of both spheres. When each of the spheres has lost half its initial charge, the magnitude of the electrostatic force will be
Answer:
F' = F/4
Thus, the magnitude of electrostatic force will become one-fourth.
Explanation:
The magnitude of force applied by each charge on one another can be given by Coulomb's Law:
F = kq₁q₂/r² -------------- equation 1
where,
F = Force applied by charges
k = Coulomb's Constant
q₁ = magnitude of first charge
q₂ = magnitude of 2nd charge
r = distance between the charges
Now, in the final state the charges on both spheres are halved. Therefore,
q₁' = q₁/2
q₂' = q₂/2
Hence, the new force will be:
F' = kq₁'q₂'/r²
F' = k(q₁/2)(q₂/2)/r²
F' = (kq₁q₂/r²)(1/4)
using equation 1:
F' = F/4
Thus, the magnitude of electrostatic force will become one-fourth.
The magnitude of the electrostatic force will be F' = F/4
The magnitude of the electrostatic force:Here we used Coulomb's Law:
F = kq₁q₂/r² -------------- equation 1
Here
F = Force applied by charges
k = Coulomb's Constant
q₁ = magnitude of first charge
q₂ = magnitude of 2nd charge
r = distance between the charges
Now
q₁' = q₁/2
q₂' = q₂/2
So, the new force should be
F' = kq₁'q₂'/r²
F' = k(q₁/2)(q₂/2)/r²
F' = (kq₁q₂/r²)(1/4)
So,
F' = F/4
