From the information provided in the question, the total mass of the nucleons is 60.49218 u.

<h3>What are nucleons?</h3>

The term nucleons refers to both the neutrons and the protons that are found in the nucleus of atoms. We have the following information;

Mass of Proton: 1. 007825 u

Mass of Neutron: 1. 008665 u

Mass of 27 neutrons = 27(1. 008665 u) = 27.233955

Mass of 33 protons = 33(1. 007825 u) = 33.258225

Total mass of nucleons = 27.233955 + 33.258225 = 60.49218 u

A mass spectrometer is being used to separate common oxygen-16 from the much rarer oxygen-18, taken from a sample of old glacial

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

0.092 m

Explanation:

A charged moving particle immersed in a region with magnetic field follows a circular trajectory at constant speed (uniform circular motion), since the magnetic forces acts perpendicular to the direction of motion of the particle.

Since the magnetic force acts as centripetal force, we can write:

$qvB=m\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

q is the charge of the particle

v is its velocity

B is the strength of the magnetic field

m is the mass of the particle

r is the radius of the orbit

Solving the equation for r,

$r=\frac{mv}{qB}$

For the ion of oxygen-16, we have:

$m_A=2.66\cdot 10^{-26}kg$

$q_A = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ (it is singly charged)

$v_A=2.90\cdot 10^6 m/s$

$B_A=1.30 T$

So the radius of its orbit is

$r_A=\frac{m_A v_A}{q_A B_A}=\frac{(2.66\cdot 10^{-26})(2.90\cdot 10^6)}{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(1.30)}=0.371 m$

For the ion of oxygen-18, we have:

$m_B = \frac{18}{16}m_A = 2.99\cdot 10^{-26}kg$

$q_B = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ (it is singly charged)

$v_B=2.90\cdot 10^6 m/s$

$B_B=1.30 T$

So the radius of its orbit is

$r_B=\frac{m_B v_B}{q_B B_B}=\frac{(2.99\cdot 10^{-26})(2.90\cdot 10^6)}{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(1.30)}=0.417 m$

After each ion has travelled a semicircle, the separation between the two ions will be twice the difference in their radius, so:

$d=2(r_B-r_A)=2(0.417-0.371)=0.092 m$

Terry can ride 30 miles in 2 hours. If his riding speed is

Anni [7]

Answer: 20.4 miles

Explanation:

Here we need to use the equation:

Velocity = Distance/Time.

Initially we have that he can travel 30 miles in 2 hours, so the velocity is:

V = 30mi/2h = 15mph

Now, we reduce the velocity by 3 mph, so the new velocity is 15mph - 3 mph = 12mph.

Now we want to know the distance traveled in 1.7 hours with this velocity, this is.

Velocity*Time = Distance

12mi/h*1.7h = 20.4 miles
