Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Molecular formula of water is H_{2}O. In a water molecule, hydrogen and oxygen ions are held together by strong hydrogen bonding.

Out of hydrogen and oxygen, oxygen is more electronegative. Thus, it will attract the electrons of hydrogen atom more towards itself. As a result, a partial positive charge will develop on hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge will develop on oxygen atom.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement electrons are pulled closer to the oxygen atom correctly describes the electrons in a water molecule.

A child pulls on a wagon with a force of 75 N. If the wagon moves a total of 42 m in 3.1 min, what is the average power delivere
exis [7]

Answer:

16.96 W

Explanation:

Power: This can be defined as the rate at which work is done by an object. The S.I unit of power is Watt(W).

From the question,

P = (F×d)/t....................... Equation 1

Where P = power, F = force, d = distance, t = time.

Given: F = 75 N, d = 42 m, t = 3.1 min = 3.1×60 = 186 s

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (75×42)/186

P = 16.94 W

Hence the average power delivered by the child  = 16.96 W

1. The geologic time scale divides time into years and centuries, true or false
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The answer is "False"

Explanation:

The geologic time scale is the "schedule" for occasions in Earth history. It partitions time into named units of unique time called in descending order of duration "eons, eras, periods, epochs, and ages". The specification of those geologic time units depends on stratigraphy, which is the relationship and order of rock layers. The fossil structures that happen in the stones, nonetheless, give the central methods for setting up a geologic time scale, with the circumstance of the development and vanishing of far and wide species from the fossil record being used to outline the beginnings and endings of ages,, periods, and different stretches.

Geologic time is the broad time period involved by the geologic history of Earth. Formal geologic time starts toward the beginning of the Archean Eon (4.0 billion to 2.5 billion years back) and proceeds to the current day.
