Which provides the best analogy for an electron in an atomic orbital?

<h2>Answer: a bee trying to escape from a closed jar  </h2>

In an atom the electrons will occupy orbitals so that their energy is as small as possible. That is why the orbitals are ordered based on their energy level in an increasing order, which is associated with a particular range of energy based on its distance from the atom nucleus.

In this sense, an electron "jumps" from one level to another in the atom in the same way a bee tries to escape from a closed jar.

1)a persons ________ will change if they move from the earth to the moon
fgiga [73]

A person's weight will change if they move from the earth to the moon. This does not however, change the person's mass. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, and volume is how much space it takes up. On the moon, there is a lighter gravitational pull on said person, so they will not weigh as much if they stepped on a scale.

Starting from rest, how far will a brick fall if it is going 15 m/s and accelerates at a rate of 9.8 m/s2?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

11.48 m

Explanation:

A brick starts from rest and gains a speed of 15 m/s and accelerates at 9.8 m/s^2

u = 0

v= 15

a= 9.8

s= ?

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

15^2 = 0^2 + 2 × 9.8×s

225= 19.6s

s= 225/19.6

s = 11.48m

Hence the brick will fall 11.48 m

A neutron star and a black hole are 3.34 x 1012 m from each other at a certain point in their orbit. The neutron star has a mass
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

  F=1.65 x 10²⁶ N

Explanation:

Given that

Distance ,R= 3.34 x 10¹² m

Mass m₁= 2.78 x 10³⁰ kg

Mass ,m₂= 9.94 x 10³⁰ kg

we know that gravitational force F given as

F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{R^2}

G=Constant

G=6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Now by putting the values

F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \dfrac{2.78\times 10^{30}\times 9.94\times 10^{30}}{(3.34\times 10^{12})^2}\ N

F=1.65 x 10²⁶ N

Therefore the force between these two mass will be 1.65 x 10²⁶ N.

What is the angular displacement of a minute hand of a clock after 3 minutes?​
Inessa [10]

Answer:

π/10 rads

Explanation:

It takes an hour (60 minutes) for the minute's hand to turn a full circle or achieve an angular rotation of

2πl rad.

Now, number of periods of 3 minutes in an hour is;

Number of periods = 60/3 = 20 periods

Thus, 3 minutes rotation accounts for 1/20 of 2π the rotation of the minute's hand in an hour.

Thus;

Angular displacement = (1/20) * 2π = π/10 rads
