Answer: Yes.

Explanation:

Oxygen has a bond order of two. The bond order of Oxygen molecule is calculated, where the [eight valence electrons in bonding molecular orbitals minus (-) four valence electrons in antibonding molecular orbitals]/2 in the electron configuration.

Atoms/molecules where electrons are paired are diamagnetic (repelled by both poles of a magnetic); while atoms/molecules that have one or more unpaired electrons are paramagnetic (attracted to magnetic field).

The two unpaired electrons of dioxygen molecules has made it paramagnetic. By pouring liquid oxygen between the poles of a strong magnet, the liquid stream will be contained by the filed and fills up the space between the poles.

Answer:

I disagree.

Explanation:

Yes, traits may be similar, but it all depends on the dominant and recessive alleles that are passed on. No one person can look alike. Even with twins, a widow's peak or close lobes can be different.

I hope this was the brainliest answer! Thank you for letting me help you.

Three point charges are placed on the y-axis: a charge q at y=a, a charge –2q at the origin, and a charge q at y= –a. Such an ar

Answer:

electric field Et = kq [1 / (x-a)² -2 / x² + 1 / (x+a)²]

Explanation:

The electric field is a vector, so it must be added as vectors, in this problem both the charges and the calculation point are on the same x-axis so we can work in a single dimension, remembering that the test charge is always positive whereby the direction of the field will depend on the load under analysis, if the field is positive, if the field is negative.

a) Let's write the electric field for each charge and the total field

E = k q /r

With k the Coulomb constant, q the charge and r the distance of the charge to the test point

Et = E1 + E2 + E3

E1 = k q / (x-a)²

E2 = k (-2q) / x²

E3 = k q / (x + a)²

Et = kq [1 / (x-a)² -2 / x² + 1 / (x+a)²]

The direction of the field is along the x axis

b) To use a binomial expansion we must have an expression the form (1-x)⁻ⁿ where x << 1, for this we take factor like x from all the equations

Et = kq/ x² [1 / (1-a/x)² - 2 + 1 / (1+a/x)²]

We use binomial expansion

(1+x)⁻² = 1 -nx + n (n-1) 2! x² +… x << 1

(1-x)⁻² = 1 +nx + n (n-1) 2! x² + ...

They replace in the total field and leaving only the first terms

Et =kq/x² [-2 +(1 +2 a/x + 2 (2-1)/2 (a/x)² +…) + (1 -2 a/x + 2(2-1) /2 (a/x)² +.) ]

Et = kq/x² [a²/x² + a²/x²2] = kq /x² [2 a²/x²]

Et = k q 2a²/x⁴

point charge

Et = k q 1/x²

Dipole

E = k q a/x³

This problem follows up on a discussion from lecture. A wind turbine with an efficiency of 45% for converting wind energy into e

Volgvan

Answer:

4.1 m

Explanation:

10 kW = 10000 W

20mi/h = 20*1.6 km/mi = 32 km/h = 32 * 1000 (m/km) *(1/3600) hr/s = 8.89 m/s

The power yielded by the wind turbine can be calculated using the following formula

$P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v^3 A C_p$

where $\rho = 1.2 kg/m^3$ is the air density, v = 8.89 m/s is the wind speed, A is the swept area and $C_p = 0.45$ is the efficiency

$10000 = 0.5 * 1.2 * 8.89^3 * A * 0.45$

$10000 = 190A$

$A = 10000 / 190 = 52.7 m^2$

The swept area is a circle with radius r being the blade length

$\pi r^2 = A = 52.7$

$r^2 = 52.7 / \pi = 16.79$

$r = \sqrt{16.79} = 4.1 m$
