Physics
1 answer:
timofeeve [1]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

D. The oxygen side is partially negative because electrons are pulled toward the oxygen side.

Explanation:

The water molecule is polar by the virtue of covalent bonds and the hydrogen bonds within and between its molecule.

The oxygen side is partially negative because the electrons are pulled toward the oxygen side.

Between oxygen and hydrogen that makes up the water molecule, oxygen is more electronegative.

An electronegative atom has more affinity for electrons. Since the electrons in the molecule of water is shared between hydrogen and oxygen, the more electronegative specie which is water draws the electron more to itself.

This leaves a net negative charge on the oxygen atom.

jeka57 [31]
<span>So we want to know what happens to meteors that enter the Earth's atmosphere and experience air friction. So since most meteors that enter Earth's atmosphere are made out of ice and/or rocks, when they enter the atmosphere, they experience air friction and their temperature rises so high they either melt or burn up. So the correct answer is burns up. </span>

Pelvic girdle

In human anatomy, the pelvis is a complex of bones that connects the trunk and the legs, supports and balances the trunk, and houses and supports the intestines, the urinary bladder, and the internal organ. It is sometimes referred to as the bony pelvis or the pelvic girdle.
One is located on the left side of the body and the other is located on the right. They come together to make the pelvic girdle, a portion of the pelvis. The hip bones are attached to the upper portion of the skeleton at the sacrum.
The pelvic girdle's main function is to support the upper body's weight while seated and transfer that weight to the lower limbs while standing. For the muscles in the trunk and lower limbs, it functions as attachment point.

Sometimes if you have the word per, you need to multiply. In this problem, they are asking you to find the amount of meters a snail can travel per minute.They are giving you the amount of minutes, so in this case you multiply 15 times 0.30. The answer is 4.5 meters.
