Answer:Simple Covalent substance
Explanation:Simple covalent substance describes a substance that has a low melting point and poor electrical conductivity because:
(1)melting point :For the covalent bond and intermolecular force that are present in a simple covalent substance,energy is needed to break the forces of attraction present. In the simple covalent substance, little energy is needed because the intermolecular forces present are broken because they are weaker compared to the covalent bond present.
Therefore, when simple covalent substance melts,only the intermolecular forces are broken leaving only the covalent bond in the substance.
(2) poor conductivity: for a substance to conduct electricity,it must have charged particles which are free to move to and fro.
But in the simple covalent substance,there are no charged particles that can be separated due to the covalent bond present in simple covalent substance.
Answer:
1800J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Weight of the book = 20N
Total distance covered = 45m + 15m + 30m = 90m
Unknown:
Total work performed on the books = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem we must understand that work done is the force applied to move a body through a certain distance.
So;
Work done = Force x distance
Work done = 20 x 90 = 1800J
Answer:
Explanation:
Mass of a proton,
Mass of an electron,
The distance between the electron and the proton is,
We need to find the mutual attractive gravitational force between the electron and proton. The gravitational force is given by :
Where G is the universal Gravitational constant
So, the force between the electron and proton is .
let the length of the beam be "L"
from the diagram
AD = length of beam = L
AC = CD = AD/2 = L/2
BC = AC - AB = (L/2) - 1.10
BD = AD - AB = L - 1.10
m = mass of beam = 20 kg
m₁ = mass of child on left end = 30 kg
m₂ = mass of child on right end = 40 kg
using equilibrium of torque about B
(m₁ g) (AB) = (mg) (BC) + (m₂ g) (BD)
30 (1.10) = (20) ((L/2) - 1.10) + (40) (L - 1.10)
L = 1.98 m
The number of heat units needed to raise the temperature of a body by one degree.
