Answer:

T = (27 da * 24 hr/da + 7 hr + 43 min/60 min/hr) * 3600 sec/hr = 2.36 * 10E6 sec       period of moon in sec

C = v t  = 2 pi R        circumference of orbit where v is orbital speed

ac (centripetal acceleration) =  v^2 / R = v^2 / (v t / 2 pi) = 2 pi v / t

ac = 2 pi * 1.03 * 10E3 m/s / 2.36 * 10E6 sec = 2.74 * 10E-3 m /s^2

An electron in a hydrogen atom is in a p state. Which of the following statements is true?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

The electron’s wavefunction has at least one node (i.e., at least one place in space where it goes to zero).

Explanation:

We know that the p-orbitals have nodes. A node is a region where the probability of finding an electron goes down to zero.

P orbitals are oriented along the x,y,z Cartesian axes and are known to have angular nodes along the axes.

Hence, if an electron in a hydrogen atom is in a p state, the electron’s wavefunction has at least one node

Four point charges are individually brought from infinity and placed at the corners of a square. Each charge has the identical v
Brut [27]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept of voltage given by Coulomb's laws. From there we will define the charges and the distance, and we will obtain the total value of the potential difference in the system.

The length of diagonal is given as

l = 2a

The distance of the center of the square from each of the corners is

r = \frac{2a}{2}= a

The potential electric at the center due to each cornet charge is

V_1 = \frac{kQ_1}{r_1}

V_2 = \frac{kQ_2}{r_2}

V_3 = \frac{kQ_3}{r_3}

V_4 = \frac{kQ_4}{r_4}

The total electric potential at the center of the given square is

V = V_1+V_2+V_3+V_4

V = \frac{kQ_1}{r_1}+ \frac{kQ_2}{r_2}+\frac{kQ_3}{r_3}+\frac{kQ_4}{r_4}

Al the charges are equal, and the distance are equal to a, then

V = \frac{kQ}{a}+ \frac{kQ}{a}+\frac{kQ}{a}+\frac{kQ}{a}

V = \frac{4kQ}{a}

Therefore the correct option is E.

Help it multiple-choice 16 and 17 only
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

16. c

17. d

Explanation:

16. Newton’s third law states that a force will always have an opposite but equal force as a reaction, so every force comes as a pair of action-reaction forces. For example, if you push on a book, the book also pushes on you.

17. If 1cm represents 15N, then 5cm must represent 15N*5=75N.
