What system includes oceans, lakes, rivers, and groundwater?

Describe the quantum mechanical model of the atom and several observations which support this model.

PIT_PIT [208]

This means that we shouldn't imagine electrons as single objects going around the atom. Instead, all we know is the probability of finding an electron at a particular location. What we end up with is something called an electron cloud. An electron cloud is an area of space in which an electron is likely to be found. It's like a 3-D graph showing the probability of finding the electron at each location in space. Quantum mechanics also tells us that a particle has certain numbers (called quantum numbers) that represent its properties. Just like how materials can be hard or soft, shiny or dull, particles have numbers to describe the properties. These include a particle's orbital quantum numbers, magnetic quantum number, and its spin. No two electrons in an atom can have exactly the same quantum numbers. Orbital quantum numbers tell you what energy level the electron is in. In the Bohr model, this represents how high the orbit is above the nucleus; higher orbits have more energy. The first orbit is n=1, the second is n=2, and so on. The magnetic quantum number is just a number that represents which direction the electron is pointing. The other important quantum mechanical property, called spin, is related to the fact that electrons come in pairs. In each pair, one electron spins one way (with a spin of one half), and the other electron spins the other way (with a spin of negative one half). Two electrons with the same spin cannot exist as a pair. This might seem kind of random, but it has effects in terms of how magnetic material is. Materials that have unpaired electrons are more likely to be magnetic

A typical wall outlet voltage in the United States is 120 volts. Personal MP3 players require much smaller voltages, typically 4

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Number of turns on the secondary coil of the adapter transformer is 10.

Explanation:

For a transformer,

$\frac{V_{s} }{V_{p} } = \frac{N_{s} }{N_{p} }$

where $V_{s}$ is the voltage induced in the secondary coil

$V_{p}$ is the voltage in the primary coil

$N_{s}$ is the number of turns of secondary coil

$N_{p}$ is the number of turns of primary coil

From the given question,

$\frac{487*10^{-3} }{120}$ = $\frac{N_{s} }{2464}$

⇒ $N_{s}$ = $\frac{2462*487*10^{-3} }{120}$

= 9.999733

∴ $N_{s}$ = 10 turns

A team of engineering students is testing their newly designed 200 kg raft in the pool where the diving team practices. The raft

elena-s [515]

Answer:

The water level rises more when the cube is located above the raft before submerging.

Explanation:

These kinds of problems are based on the principle of Archimedes, who says that by immersing a body in a volume of water, the initial water level will be increased, raising the water level. That is, the height in the container with water will rise in level. The difference between the new volume and the initial volume of the water will be the volume of the submerged body.

Now we have two moments when the steel cube is held by the raft and when it is at the bottom of the pool.

When the cube is at the bottom of the water we know that the volume will increase, and we can calculate this volume using the volume of the cube.

Vc = 0.45*0.45*0.45 = 0.0911 [m^3]

Now when a body floats it is because a balance is established in the densities, the density of the body and the density of the water.

$Ro_{H2O}=R_{c+r}\\where:\\Ro_{H2O}= water density = 1000 [kg/m^3]\\Ro_{c+r}= combined density cube + raft [kg/m^3]$

Density is given by:

Ro = m/V

where:

m= mass [kg]

V = volume [m^3]

The buoyancy force can be calculated using the following equation:

$F_{B}=W=Ro_{H20}*g*Vs\\W = (200+730)*9.81\\W=9123.3[N]\\\\9123=1000*9.81*Vs\\Vs = 0.93 [m^3]$

Vs > Vc, What it means is that the combined volume of the raft and the cube is greater than that of the cube at the bottom of the pool. Therefore the water level rises more when the cube is located above the raft before submerging.

In a tug-of-war game on one campus, 15 students pull on a rope at both ends in an effort to displace the central knot to one sid

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Net pull = 110 N to the left

Explanation:

Group the different pulls according to the direction (right or left)

2 pull 196 N each to the right

4 pull 98 N each to the left

5 pull 62 N each to the left

3 pull 150 N each to the right

1 pull 250 N to the left

Since positive direction is to the right, the pulls to the left will have a minus (-)

$Net Force= 2(196)+4(-98)+5(-62)+3(150)+1(-250) \\Net Force = -110$

The resulting force is negative, meaning the direction is to the left
