Answer:

<u><em>Ions</em></u> are atoms that carry an electric charge.

Explanation:

An ion is an atom or molecule that does not have a neutral electric charge. In other words, ions are atoms or groups of atoms that have an electric charge. Ions with a positive charge are called cations. Those with a negative charge are called anions.

Ionization is the formation of electrically charged molecules or atoms. Atoms are electrically neutral. The loss of one or more electrons from a neutral atom forms a cation. Conversely, an anion is an ion whose net charge is negative due to an increase in the number of electrons.

Cations and anions are usually represented with the symbol of the corresponding atom or group of atoms and the symbol "+" or "-", respectively. If the number of electrons gained or lost is greater than one, this is indicated by the corresponding number.

yarga [219]

Hello! The nontoxic, nonflammable chemicals containing atoms of carbon, chlorine, and fluorine that have created a hole in the ozone layer are the Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)

These are compounds developed and improved by Thomas Midgley in the late 1920s. They were used as refrigerants and aerosol propellants.

These compounds created a hole in the ozone layer by the following reactions:

CCl₃F → CCl₂F· + Cl· (In the presence of light. Radical Reaction)
Cl· + O₃ → ClO + O₂
ClO + O₃ → Cl· + O₂

The last 2 reactions can repeat in a radical mechanism and explain why these compounds are so harmful to the ozone layer.

1. Is the relationship between velocity and centripetal force a direct, linear relationship or is it a nonlinear square relation

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

non linear square relationship

Explanation:

formula for centripetal force is given as

a = mv^2/r

here a ic centripetal acceleration , m is mass of body moving in circle of radius r and v is velocity of body . If m ,and r are constant we have

a = constant × v^2

a α v^2

hence non linear square relationship

A 42.0-kg parachutist is moving straight downward with a speed of 3.85 m/s. (a) If the parachutist comes to rest with constant a

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

-414.96 N

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-3.85^2}{2\times 0.75}\\\Rightarrow a=-9.88\ m/s^2$

$F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=42\times -9.88\\\Rightarrow F=-414.96\ N$

The force the ground exerts on the parachutist is -414.96 N

If the distance is shorter than 0.75 m then the acceleration will increase causing the force to increase

A ray is incident on a film of thickness t and the index of refraction n=1.6 at an angle θ = 35 degrees. Find the angle of refra

lidiya [134]

Answer

Given,

refractive index of film, n = 1.6

refractive index of air, n' = 1

angle of incidence, i = 35°

angle of refraction, r = ?

Using Snell's law

n' sin i = n sin r

1 x sin 35° = 1.6 x sin r

r = 21°

Angle of refraction is equal to 21°.

Now,

distance at which refractive angle comes out

d = 2.5 mm

α be the angle with horizontal surface and incident ray.

α = 90°-21° = 69°

t be the thickness of the film.

So,

$tan \alpha = \dfrac{t}{d/2}$

$tan 61^0 = \dfrac{t}{2.5/2}$

t = 2.26 mm

Hence, the thickness of the film is equal to 2.26 mm.

A soccer player icks a rock horizontally off a 40m high cliff into a pool f water if the player hears the sound of the splash s

Semenov [28]

Answer:

v = 9.936 m/s

Explanation:

given,

height of cliff = 40 m

speed of sound = 343 m/s

assuming that time to reach the sound to the player = 3 s

now,

time taken to fall of ball

$t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2s}{g}}$

$t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 40}{9.8}}$

t = 2.857 s

distance

d = v x t

d = v x 2.875

time traveled by the sound before reaching the player

$t_0 = t - t_{fall}$

$t_0 = 3 - 2.875$

$t_0 = 0.143 s$

distance traveled by the wave in this time'

r = 0.143 x 343

r= 49.05 m

now,

we know.

d² + h² = r²

d² + 40² = 49.05²

d =28.387 m

v x 2.875=28.387 m

v = 9.936 m/s
