The potential energy function for either one of the two atoms in a diatomic molecule is often approximated by U(x)=a/x^{12}-b/x^6U(x)=a/x 12 −b/x 6 where xx is the distance between the atoms. Find the distance of separation where the potential energy has a local minimum.

Determine the wavelength of the light absorbed when an electron in a hydrogen atom makes a transition from an orbital in the n=3 level to an orbital in the n=7 level.

1) describe the physical layout of the ocean floor ? 2) explain how the dumbo octopus swims differently than other octopus species and why this would be an advantage in the aphonic zone . 3) why are the types of organisms that live at each underwater hot vent so dramatically different ?

Listenbase your answer to the question on the information below.nuclear radiation is harmful to living cells, particularly to fast-growing cells, such as cancer cells and blood cells. an external beam of the radiation emitted from a radioisotope can be directed on a small area of a person to destroy cancer cells within the body.cobalt-60 is an artificially produced radioisotope that emits gamma rays and beta particles. one hospital keeps a 100.0-gram sample of cobalt-60 in an appropriate, secure storage container for future cancer treatment.which choice represents the correct product for the beta decay of the co-60? fe-60ni-60fe-61ni-61
