<span>2down votefavoriteI will quote a question from my textbook, to prevent misinterpretation:Let <span>GG</span> be a finite abelian group and let <span>mm</span> be the least common multiple of the orders of its elements. Prove that <span>GG</span> contains an element of order <span>mm</span>.I figured that, if <span><span>|G|=n</span><span>|G|=n</span></span>, then I should interpret the part with the least common multiple as <span><span>lcm(|<span>x1</span>|,…,|<span>xn</span>|)=m</span><span>lcm(|<span>x1</span>|,…,|<span>xn</span>|)=m</span></span>, where <span><span><span>xi</span>∈G</span><span><span>xi</span>∈G</span></span> for <span><span>0≤i≤n</span><span>0≤i≤n</span></span>, thus, for all such <span><span>xi</span><span>xi</span></span>, <span><span>∃<span>ai</span>∈N</span><span>∃<span>ai</span>∈N</span></span> such that <span><span>m=|<span>xi</span>|<span>ai</span></span><span>m=|<span>xi</span>|<span>ai</span></span></span>. I guess I should use the fact that <span><span>|<span>xi</span>|</span><span>|<span>xi</span>|</span></span> divides <span><span>|G|</span><span>|G|</span></span>, so <span><span>∃k∈N</span><span>∃k∈N</span></span> such that <span><span>|G|=k|<span>xi</span>|</span><span>|G|=k|<span>xi</span>|</span></span> for all <span><span><span>xi</span>∈G</span><span><span>xi</span>∈G</span></span>. I'm not really sure how to go from here, in particular how I should use the fact that <span>GG</span> is abelian.</span>

A black hole can be considered a star that has
lubasha [3.4K]
The first option, collapsed in on itself. The star's core mass becomes so dense that the resulting gravity implodes the star. Interesting enough, the third option is kindof true too...some large and tenacious black holes that absorb other stars will form incredibly bright accretion disks around their perimeter before filling absorbing the star.

Which is not a reason why mass of an atom is expressed in atomic mass units rather than in grams?
Tasya [4]
What are your answer choices? Scientists express the weight in AMU’s so that they can easily think about the weight of the atom. If it is expressed in grams, they’re constantly dealing with a weight that’s around 10^-24 grams, which is hard to deal with.

Orbitals which valence electrons are found for calcium
galina1969 [7]
The 4th energy level (row), 's' orbital block, 2nd group (column). The valence electrons are found in the highest energy level of the electron configuration in the 's' and 'p' orbitals. In the case of calcium this is 4s2 . This gives calcium an 's' orbital with a pair of electrons in its valence shell
