Answer:

An object with a high mass close to the Earth could be sent out into a collision course with the asteroid, knocking it off course. When the asteroid is still far from the Earth, a means of deflecting the asteroid is to directly alter its momentum by colliding a spacecraft with the asteroid.

Hope it helps!!

What is the configuration of all electron pairs arranged around oxygen in a water molecule?

Darina [25.2K]

I think the answer would be : Tetrahedral

Oxygen has 6 electrons and need 2 more electron to complete its octet. In Tetrahedral, the electrons are arranged so it surround the oxygen and forming a 109 degree bond angel/

The 500kg concrete culvert has a mean radius of 0.5m. part a if the truck has an acceleration of 3m/s2, determine the culvert's

jarptica [38.1K]

Given:

Radius of culvert, r = 0.5 m

Tangential acceleration of the truck, a = 3 m/s2

To determine:

The angular acceleration, α

Explanation:

The tangential acceleration is related to the angular acceleration through the radius as:

a = rα

α = a/r = 3 ms⁻²/0.5 m = 6 s⁻²

Ans: The angular acceleration is 6 s⁻²

Write the isotopic symbol for the following (show your work) a) An isotope of iodine whose atoms have 78 neutrons b) An isotope

morpeh [17]

Answer:

For a: The isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b: The isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c: The isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$

Explanation:

The isotopic representation of an atom is: $_Z^A\textrm{X}$

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

For a:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 78

Atomic number of iodine = 53 = Number of protons

Mass number = 53 + 78 = 131

Thus, the isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 82

Atomic number of cesium = 55 = Number of protons

Mass number = 55 + 82 = 137

Thus, the isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 52

Atomic number of strontium = 38 = Number of protons

Mass number = 38 + 52 = 90

Thus, the isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$
