Answer:

Comparison

Displacement and force are factors of both work and power

Work=Force× Displacement

power=(Force×Displacement)/time

Therefore power is the derivative of work with respect to time.

Contrast

Work is defined as a product of force and distance while power is the rate at which the work is done.

What type of bond results from the side‑on overlap of orbitals?

Serga [27]

Answer:

A pi bond

Explanation:

A pi bond is a type of covalent bond that results from the formation of a molecular orbital by the side-to-side overlap of atomic orbitals along a plane perpendicular to a line connecting the nuclei of the atoms.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the breeze = 4 m/s

w = Width of the valley = 5000 m

h = Height of the valley = 1000 m

Volumetric flow rate is given by

$\dot{V}=vwh\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=4\times 5000\times 1000\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=2\times10^{7}\ \text{m}^3/\text{s}$

$\dot{m}$ = Mass flow rate of pollutant = 25 g/s = $25\times 10^6\ \mu\text{g/s}$

Concentration is given by

$C=\dfrac{\dot{m}}{\dot{V}}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{25\times 10^6}{2\times 10^7}\\\Rightarrow C=1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$

The steady state concentration of pollutants in the valley, is $1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$ .

Doss [256]

Answer:

The resultant velocity is 169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis or the east-west line.

Explanation:

Considering west direction along negative x-axis and north direction along positive y-axis

Given:

The car travels at a speed of 120 km/h in the west direction.

The car then travels at the same speed in the north direction.

Now, considering the given directions, the velocities are given as:

Velocity in west direction is, $\overrightarrow{v_1}=-120\ \vec{i}$

Velocity in north direction is, $\overrightarrow{v_2}=120\ \vec{j}$

Now, since $v_1\ and\ v_2$ are perpendicular to each other, their resultant magnitude is given as:

$|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{|\overrightarrow{v_1}|^2+|\overrightarrow{v_2}|^2}$

Plug in the given values and solve for the magnitude of the resultant.This gives,

$|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{(120)^2+(120)^2}\\\\|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=120\sqrt{2} = 169.71\ km/h$

Let the angle made by the resultant be 'x' degree with the east-west line or the x-axis.

So, the direction is given as:

$x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{|v_2|}{|v_1|})\\\\x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{120}{-120})=\tan^{-1}(-1)=-45\ deg(clockwise\ angle\ with\ the\ x-axis)$

Therefore, the resultant velocity is 169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis or the east-west line.
