    Xenon Tetrafluoride hybridization

    Homework Statement Hi I would like to understand how does the hybridization of an inert gas(fully stable octet)--Xenon happen? Since hybridization happens to promote electrons to higher sublevels but xenon's sublevels are already full. So how and why does the hybridization occur...

    Civil Engineer, chemistry is recommended but not required

    Okay I understand but I was wondering if I could do it in a private school where the course is easier then in day school? Cause I know a private school where the tests are easier compared to day school? So do you think I need to know the basics of grade 12 SCH4U or as much as possible...

    Civil Engineer, chemistry is recommended but not required

    My question is do I need to be exceptionally well in chemistry 12 university level course when going to university next year. I am planning to go into civil engineering next year in university; It deals with structural and transportation systems? All advice is appreciated.

    Time Dilation Problem; Find the proper time, ts.

    yea sure I will do that but the book literally states in answers(unless they are wrong) 4.5a=3.19x10^9 secondsi will try one more time thanks for your help I think I will speak to teacher about this question, maybe something is wrong with it

    Time Dilation Problem; Find the proper time, ts.

    yes that is the whole question and you are right it does not tell you the frames...Im guessing you are suppose to figure out the frames yourself.. d from Earth to star= 4.3x10^16 m v= 0.999c=3x10^8x0.999=2.9997X10^8 I used the distance time formula to find the ts(well I think the...

    Time Dilation Problem; Find the proper time, ts.

    Homework Statement Alpha Centauri, the closest star to Earth, is 4.3x10^6 m away. How long would it take a spaceship to reach the star if it were traveling at 0.999c? Homework Equations I did get the answer as 0.2a...and the textbook also said it would take about 2 months, I do not...

    The properties of Electric Field lines

    yes that is what I did; My information(list), I gathered from the text; I guess I will go back again and read it over one more time. ---thanks

    The properties of Electric Field lines

    Homework Statement List the 4 properties and characteristics of electric field lines. Homework Equations I was not able to get them all and the ones that I did get I am confused that if it is really a characteristic or a property The Attempt at a Solution 1. Characteristic...

    Momentum and Energy Conservation of a Space Elevator

    Its not that I don't think it WONT be conserved but rather I do not understand how? I mean what do elastic collisions got to do with an elevator that will move up in a very powerful electromagnetic field(i think).

    Momentum and Energy Conservation of a Space Elevator

    yes i realized my mistake and I would edit it but I cannot... Either way. my main question of 'discussion' was how would the conservation of momentum and energy be applied in a space elevator.

    Momentum and Energy Conservation of a Space Elevator

    NASA did not state; but through an article I found was compiled someone who must be part of NASA? Unless if you think the article has false data: Check it out: http://www.spaceelevator.com/docs/elevator.pdf On page 2 he does state: " Advances in these five areas over the next 10 to 20 years...

    Momentum and Energy Conservation of a Space Elevator

    You are right. I worded it wrong. However, NASA did state that this project will be completed in about 15 years

    Momentum and Energy Conservation of a Space Elevator

    I want to know what exactly is the free-electron laser power beaming system that will be used in our future Space elevator and how the conservation of energy and momentum is associated with this project that NASA will launch. ? Other info: I am taking grade 12 university level physics; All...
