Answer:

The Arsenic has three electron-containing orbitals. The orbitals s, p and d.

Explanation:

Arsenic is an element with an atomic number equal of 33, it means that it has 33 electrons in its orbitals in the following way:

$1s^{2}$

$2s^{2}$

$2p^{6}$

$3s^{2}$

$3p^{6}$

$3d^{10}$

$4s^{2}$

$4p^{3}$

Therefore, the Arsenic has three electron-containing orbitals (s, p d).

What is the purpose of the three R’s of resource management?

svlad2 [7]

The three R's – reduce, reuse and recycle – all help to cut down on the amount of waste we throw away. They conserve natural resources, landfill space and energy.

Hope that helped :)

A particle that has mass m and charge q enters a uniform magnetic field that has magnitude B and is directed along the x axis. T

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

a) The trajectory will be a helical path.

b) θ = 2*π rad

Explanation:

a) Since the initial velocity of the particle has a component parallel (x-component) to the magnetic field B , the trajectory will be a helical path.

b) Given

t = 2*π*m/(q*B)

We can use the equation

θ = ω*Δt

where

θ is the angular displacement

ω is the angular speed, which is obtained as follows:

ω = q*B/m

then we have

θ = (q*B/m)*2*π*m/(q*B)

⇒ θ = 2*π rad

The planet Mars has a mass of 6.1 × 1023 kg and radius of 3.4 × 106 m. What is the acceleration of an object in free fall near t

Oksanka [162]

The acceleration due to gravity of Mars is $3.5\ m / s^{2}$

Explanation:

As per universal law of gravity, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. But in the present case, the gravity need to be determined between Mars and the object on Mars. Since the mass of Mars is greater than the mass of any object. Thus,

$\text {Gravitational force of planet}=\frac{G M m}{R^{2}}$

Here, G is the gravitational constant, R is the radius of Mars and M, m is the mass of Mars and the object respectively..

Also, according to Newton’s second law of motion, the acceleration of any object will be equal to the ratio of force exerted on it to the mass of the object.

So in order to determine the acceleration due to gravity of Mars, divide the gravitational force of Mars by mass of object on the surface of Mars.

$Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity\ of\ mars =\frac{\text {Gravitational force of Mars}}{m \text { of object }}$

$Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity\ of\ mars =\frac{G M m}{R^{2} \times m}=\frac{G M}{R^{2}}$

$\text { Acceleration due to gravity of mars }=\frac{6.67259 \times 10^{-11} \times 6.1 \times 10^{23}}{3.4 \times 3.4 \times 10^{12}}=\frac{40.703 \times 10^{12}}{11.56 \times 10^{12}}$
