Since the bell weighs 190 N and is 45 m high, the bell’s potential energy is 8550 J

To answer the question, we need to know what potential energy is.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

This is energy due to position. It is given by PE = mgh where

  • m = mass,
  • g = acceleration due to gravity and
  • h = height of object.

Also, W = mg = weight of object.

So, PE = Wh

<h3>The bell's potential energy</h3>

Now, given that the bells weight 190 N and is 45 m high,

  • W = 190 N and
  • h = 45 m.

So, PE = Wh

= 190 N × 45 m

= 8550 Nm

= 8550 J

So, the bell’s potential energy is 8550 J

Variable changed by the scientists what is being tested
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Hope this is helpful to you!

The independent variable is the one that is changed by the scientist. To insure a fair test, a good experiment has only ONE independent variable. As the scientist changes the independent variable, he or she records the data that they collect.

Why does a gold isotope, with an atomic number of 79, require more neutrons to be stable than a sodium isotope, with an atomic n
Leya [2.2K]

Here’s a simplified explanation.

The <em>protons</em> in the nucleus <em>repel each other</em>. The <em>neutrons provide the “glue”</em> that holds the nucleus together and prevents it from flying apart.

The “glue” is the strong nuclear force. It is strong but extremely short range. It falls off extremely rapidly as the p-n distance increases.

A <em>neon atom</em> has 10 protons. There are three stable isotopes, with 10, 11, and 12 neutrons.

With fewer than 10 protons, the glue is not strong enough to hold the nucleus together.

If there are more than 12 neutrons, the average p-n distance is great enough that the glue has again become too weak.

<em>Gold</em> has one stable isotope. It contains 79 protons and 118 neutrons.

If there are fewer than 118 neutrons, the proton repulsions will be too strong for the strong force. If there are more than 118 neutrons, the average p-n distance will be large enough that the glue will again be too weak to hold the nucleus toge ther.

Rank the following bonds in order of decreasing bond length, based on periodic trends, starting with the longest bond at the top
sattari [20]

Answer:

H-BI,H-Se,H-S,H-I,H-Br

Explanation:

One thing that must be kept in mind is that atomic size increases down the group and decreases across the period. The bond lengths of species are influenced by the relative sizes of atoms or ions present in the bond.

The bonds in the answer have been arranged on basis of their decreasing atomic size because the greater the atomic size of the atoms, the greater the bond length and vice versa.
