Answer:

$\boxed{ \sf{The \: electron \: has \: a \: negative \: charge \: and \: is \: found \: outside \: of \: the \: nucleus}}$

Option A is correct

Explanation:

Let's check the options:

A: The electron has a negative charge and is found outside of the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ Yeah! It's TRUE . An electron is a negatively charged particle and is located outside the nucleus of an atom.

B : The neutron has a negative charge and is found in the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ No! It's FALSE . A neutron carries no charge. i.e it is a neutral particle and found inside the nucleus.

C : The proton has no charge and is found in the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ No! It's FALSE.A proton is a positively charged particle present inside nucleus of an atom.

D : The neutron has no charge and is found outside of the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ I agree that the neutron has no charge. But it is found inside the nucleus not outside . So, this statement is FALSE .

Hence, we found our answer! :D

A. The electron has a negative charge and is found outside of the nucleus is the correct statement about an atom.

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

What is the ground-state electron configuration of a neutral atom of titanium?

Georgia [21]

Answer:

$\bold {1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^2}$

Explanation:

electronic configuration of an atom is the spatial arrangement of the electrons around the nucleus in the energy orbits

We know that the atomic number of Titanium is 22

The electronic configuration of Titanium is

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^2$

What is necessary to designate a position? A. a reference point B. a direction C. fundamental units D. motion E. all of these

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

E. all of these

Explanation:

The designation of a point in space all the points that necessary

- reference point

- a direction

- fundamental units

- a direction

- motion

all are necessary to designate a point in space. Hence option E is correct.

For example in simple harmonic motion we need to specify all the above factors of the object in order to designate the position of the object.

A man walking on a tightrope carries a long a pole which has heavy items attached to the two ends. If he were to walk the tight-

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

I_weight = M L²

this value is much larger and with it it is easier to restore balance.I

Explanation:

When man walks a tightrope, he carries a linear velocity, this velocity is related to the angular velocity by

v = w r

For man to maintain equilibrium needs the total moment to be zero

∑τ = I α

S τ = 0

The forces on the home are the weight of the masses, the weight of the man and the support on the rope, the latter two are zero taque the distance to the center of rotation is zero.

Therefore the moment of the masses and the open is the one that must be zero.

If the man carries only the bar, we could approximate it by two open one on each side of the axis of rotation formed by the free of the rope

I = ⅓ m L² / 4

As the length of half the length of the bar and the mass of the bar is small, this moment is small, therefore at the moment if there is some imbalance it is difficult to recover.

If, in addition to the opening, each of them carries a specific weight, the moment of inertia of this weight is

I_weight = M L²

this value is much larger and with it it is easier to restore balance.
