Which statement correctly describes the electrons in a water molecule?. . A.Which statement correctly describes the electrons in
2 answers:
Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Molecular formula of water is . 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. 6.67 cm
The focal length of the lens can be found by using the lens equation:
where we have
f = focal length
s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens
s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens
Solving the equation for f, we find
B. Converging
According to sign convention for lenses, we have:
- Converging (convex) lenses have focal length with positive sign
- Diverging (concave) lenses have focal length with negative sign
In this case, the focal length of the lens is positive, so the lens is a converging lens.
C. -1.25
The magnification of the lens is given by
where
s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens
s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens
Substituting into the equation, we find
D. Real and inverted
The magnification equation can be also rewritten as
where
y' is the size of the image
y is the size of the object
Re-arranging it, we have
Since in this case M is negative, it means that y' has opposite sign compared to y: this means that the image is inverted.
Also, the sign of s' tells us if the image is real of virtual. In fact:
- s' is positive: image is real
- s' is negative: image is virtual
In this case, s' is positive, so the image is real.
E. Virtual
In this case, the magnification is 5/9, so we have
which can be rewritten as
which means that s' has opposite sign than s: therefore, the image is virtual.
F. 12.0 cm
From the magnification equation, we can write
and then we can substitute it into the lens equation:
and we can solve for s:
G. -6.67 cm
Now the image distance can be directly found by using again the magnification equation:
And the sign of s' (negative) also tells us that the image is virtual.
H. -24.0 cm
In this case, the image is twice as tall as the object, so the magnification is
M = 2
and the distance of the image from the lens is
s' = -24 cm
The problem is asking us for the image distance: however, this is already given by the problem,
s' = -24 cm
so, this is the answer. And the fact that its sign is negative tells us that the image is virtual.
To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Force of Friction and Torque given by the kinematic equations of motion.
The frictional force by definition is given by
Our values are here,
Replacing,
Consider the center of mass of the body half its distance from the floor, that is d = 0.85 / 2 = 0.425m. The torque about the lower farther corner of the refrigerator should be zero to get the maximum distance, then
Re-arrange for x,
Then we can conclude that 1.42m is the distance traveled before turning.
