Answer:

The orbital diagram represents the filling of electrons in the sub levels of an orbit. The filling of the orbitals in sub- levels follow some basic rules and principles.

The orbital diagram of an orbit containing 16 electrons will be as follows:

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁴

The maximum number of electrons in each sublevel of the orbitals are:
2 electrons for s-sublevel with one orbital
6 electrons for p-sublevel with three orbital
10 electrons for d-sublevel with five orbital
14 electrons for f-sublevel with seven orbital

The force exerted by the wind on the sails of a sailboat is Fsail = 330 N north. The water exerts a force of Fkeel = 210 N east.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration is $a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2$

The direction is $\theta = 32.5 6^o$ north of east

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The force exerted by the wind is $F_{sail} = (330 ) \ N \ north$

The force exerted by water is $F_{keel} = (210 ) \ N \ east$

The mass of the boat(+ crew) is $m_b = 260 \ kg$

Now Force is mathematically represented as

$F = ma$

Now the acceleration towards the north is mathematically represented as

$a_n = \frac{F_{sail}}{m_b}$

substituting values

$a_n = \frac{330 }{260}$

$a_n = 1.269 \ m/s^2$

Now the acceleration towards the east is mathematically represented as

$a_e = \frac{F_{keel}}{m_b }$

substituting values

$a_e = \frac{210}{260}$

$a_e =0.808 \ m/s^2$

The resultant acceleration is

$a_r = \sqrt{a_e^2 + a_n^2}$

substituting values

$a_r = \sqrt{(0.808)^2 + (1.269)^2}$

$a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2$

The direction with reference from the north is evaluated as

Apply SOHCAHTOA

$tan \theta = \frac{a_e}{a_n}$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{a_e}{a_n } ]$

substituting values

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{0.808}{1.269 } ]$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [0.636 ]$

$\theta = 32.5 6^o$

What is something the screw can do that the other simple machines can't

Naya [18.7K]

Geometrically, a screw can be viewed as a narrow inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. Like the other simple machines a screw can amplify force; a small rotational force (torque) on the shaft can exert a large axial force on a load.

Failures to arrive at an answer in a scientific investigation can still be useful because they show us what doesn't work. Answer

kipiarov [429]

True
From what Ive learned its like how you create your own hypothesis for a science experiment it may not work completely that way but you learn what didnt work and what does work
