Question

directions: type the correct answer in each box. use numerals instead of words. elements can have a positive charge, a negative charge, or no charge. determine the magnitude of each element given below. element a has a charge of 5. what is the magnitude of the charge? element b has a charge of -3. what is the magnitude of the charge? element c has a charge of 0. what is the magnitude of the charge?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall magnitude concept

The magnitude of a number is its absolute - value.

Step2: Calculate magnitude of Element A

The charge of Element A is 5. The magnitude of 5 is $|5| = 5$.

Step3: Calculate magnitude of Element B

The charge of Element B is - 3. The magnitude of - 3 is $|-3|=3$.

Step4: Calculate magnitude of Element C

The charge of Element C is 0. The magnitude of 0 is $|0| = 0$.

Answer:

5
3
0
