You have to follow the Aufbau principle, which states that electrons populate the atomic orbitals situated at the lowest energy first.


The orbitals are:

1

22

333

4444

5555

666

Darin skateboarded to the north at 4 m/s. In 5 seconds, he sped up to 7 m/s. What was his acceleration?
Julli [10]
To solve this problem we can use following equation.

v =u + at

Where v is the final velocity (m/s), u is the initial velocity (m/s), a is the acceleration (m/s²) and t is the time taken (s).

v = 7 m/s
u = 4 m/s
a = ?
t = 5 s

By applying the equation, we can get
    7 m/s = 4 m/s + a x 5 s
    3 m/s = a x 5 s
          a = 0.6 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration is 0.6 m/s² towards north.

Answer is "C".

The muscles on the run in transform chemical potential energy into_____
LekaFEV [45]

Mechanical Energy

Mechanism energy is the energy associated with the position and motion of an object. Therefore it is also the summation of the kinetic and potential energies of the object.

Explanation:

Mechanism energy is the energy associated with the position and motion of an object. Therefore it is also the summation of the kinetic and potential energies of the object.

In the muscles, to have movement, the chemical bonds in ATP is broken to enable the sliding action of the myosin and actin fibres of a sarcomere (the basic unit of muscle). This sliding action is responsible for contraction of muscle.  The coordinated contractions and relaxations of sarcomeres on muscles result in movement which translates to mechanical energy.

This process is never 100% efficient with some energy lost as heat energy.

Find the formula for the compound that contains 72.40% iron and 27.60% oxygen.
Vikki [24]
Oxygen = 16
Iron = 55.8
16 x 27.6% = 4.4 /4 = 1.1
55.8 x 72.4% = 40.4 /4 = 10.1
1 oxygen and 10 iron, so Fe10 O
