The correct answer is A. Electron cloud

Explanation:

An electron is a type of particle that can be found orbiting the nucleus of atoms. In the last years, scientists have determined electrons are not in a fixed position but can be found in different zones at a specific time; moreover, electrons behave similarly to waves, which makes it difficult to locate their positions in the atoms. Despite this, there are certain regions in which you will likely find an electron at a certain time, these zones are known as the electron cloud. Thus, the term that refers to the region where there is a high probability of finding an atom is the electron cloud.

IMPORTANT 3 QUESTIONS!

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

7. 20,000,000 mL.

8. 8,000 m.

9. 120,000 secs.

10. 4

Explanation:

7. Determination of the volume in millilitres (mL)

Volume in litre (L) = 20,000 L

Volume in millilitres (mL) =..?

The volume in mL can be obtained as follow:

1 L = 1,000 mL

Therefore,

20,000 L = 20,000 x 1,000 = 20,000,000 mL.

Therefore, 20,000 L is equivalent to 20,000,000 mL.

8. Determination of the distance in metre (m)

Distance in mile = 5 mile

Distance in metre =?

First, we shall convert from mile to kilometre.

This can be done as follow:

1 mile = 1.6 km

Therefore,

5 mile = 5 x 1.6 = 8 km

Finally, we shall convert 8 km to metre (m).

This is illustrated below:

1 km = 1,000 m

Therefore,

8 km = 8 x 1,000 = 8,000 m

Therefore, 5 miles is equivalent to 8,000 m.

9. Determination of the time in seconds.

Time = 400 minutes for 5 days.

First, we shall convert 400 mins to hour.

This is illustrated below:

60 minutes = 1 hour

Therefore,

400 mins = 400/60 = 20/3 hours

The time (hours) is 20/3 hours in 1 day.

Therefore, the time (hours) in 5 days will be = 20/3 x 5 = 100/3 hours.

Next, we shall convert 100/3 hours to minutes.

This is illustrated below:

1 hour = 60 minutes

Therefore,

100/3 hours = 100/3 x 60 = 2000 mins

Finally, we shall convert 2000 mins to seconds.

This is illustrated below:

1 mins = 60 secs

2000 mins = 2000 x 60 = 120,000 secs.

Therefore, the time is 120,000 secs.

10. Determination of the number of significant figures.

To obtain the significant figures of a number, we simply count all the numbers available.

Therefore, the number of significant figures for 9876 is 4.

A student pushes on a 8-kg box with a force of 35 N forward. The force of sliding friction is 10 N backward. What is the acceler

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

(35 N - 10 N)/8kg = 3.125 m/s^2

Explanation:

The formula for Force is:

Force = Mass*Acceleration

(Force is equal to Mass times Acceleration)

Since we're told to find the acceleration of the box. We make acceleration the subject of the equation:

Acceleration = Force/Mass

(Acceleration equal to Force divided by Mass)

We know that the force are 35 N forward and 10 N backward, and the weight of the box is 8kg.

= (35 N - 10 N)/8kg

The reason that 35 N minus 10 N is because the 10 N is pushing the box backward.

= 25 N/8kg

= 3.125 m/s^2

Hope it helps :DD

You throw a baseball (mass 0.145 kg) vertically upward. It leaves your hand moving at 12.0 m/s. Air resistance can be neglected.

Andru [333]

Answer:

The ball will have an upward velocity of 6 m/s at a height of 5.51 m.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equations of height and velocity of the ball are the following:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

y = height at time t.

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.81 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

v = velocity of the ball at time t.

Placing the origin at the throwing point, y0 = 0.

Let´s use the equation of velocity to obtain the time at which the velocity is 12.0 m/s / 2 = 6.00 m/s.

v = v0 + g · t

6.00 m/s = 12.0 m/s -9.81 m/s² · t

(6.00 - 12.0)m/s / -9.81 m/s² = t

t = 0.612 s

Now, let´s calculate the height of the baseball at that time:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t² (y0 = 0)

y = 12.0 m/s · 0.612 s - 1/2 · 9.81 m/s² · (0.612 s)²

y = 5.51 m

The ball will have an upward velocity of 6 m/s at a height of 5.51 m.

Have a nice day!

water in a cup and a kettle can have the same temperature even though the quantities are different . give reasons

jekas [21]

Answer:

The reason is because both are exposed to a virtually infinite heat sink, due to the virtually infinite mass and of the surrounding environment, compared to the sizes of either the cup or the kettle such that the equilibrium temperature, $T_{(equilibrium)}$ reached is the same for both the cup and the kettle as given by the relation;

$\infty M_{(environ)} \times c_{(environ)} \times (T_2 - T_1) = m_{1} \times c_{(water)} \times (T_3 - T_2) + m_{2} \times c_{(water)} \times (T_4 - T_2)$

Due to the large heat sink, T₂ - T₁ ≈ 0 such that the temperature of the kettle and that of the cup will both cool to the temperature of the environment
