Answer:

atom -
the smallest particle of a chemical element that can exist.

atomic mass-
the quantity of matter contained in an atom of an element

atomic weight -
ratio of the average mass of a chemical element's atoms to some standard

protons-
stable subatomic particle that has a positive charge equal in magnitude to a unit of electron charge and a rest mass of 1.67262 × 10−27 kg

electrons-
a stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids

neutrons-
a subatomic particle of about the same mass as a proton but without an electric charge, present in all atomic nuclei except those of ordinary hydrogen.

energy levels-
one of the stable states of constant energy that may be assumed by a physical system
[used especially of the quantum states of electrons in atoms and of nuclei. — called also energy state.]

Covalent bonds

the interatomic linkage that results from the sharing of an electron pair between two atoms.

ionic bonds
type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.

Valence electrons
a single electron or one of two or more electrons in the outer shell of an atom that is responsible for the chemical properties of the atom.

Lewis Dot Diagram
A way of representing atoms or molecules by showing electrons as dots surrounding the element symbol. One bond is represented as two electrons.

Radial acceleration is given by

$a_{rad}= \frac{v^2}{r}$
where

$v=r \omega$
then

$a_{rad}= \frac{r^2 \omega^2}{r}=r\omega^2$

Now

$70\omega^2=3.90 \frac{m}{s^2} \\ \\ \omega= \sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70} }$

Using the relation

$\omega=2 \pi f$

$2 \pi f= \sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70} }\\ \\ f= \frac{1}{2 \pi}\sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70} }Hz$

Putting into rpm

$\frac{60}{2 \pi}\sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70}} =2.254rpm$

It is estimated that uranium is relatively common in the earth's crust, occurring in amounts of 4 g / metric ton. A metric ton i

timama [110]

Answer:

The mass of Uranium present in a 1.2mg sample is $4.8 \cdot 10^{-6}\,mg$

Explanation:

The ration between Uranium mass and total sample mass is: $\frac{4g}{1000kg} =\frac{4g}{1000000g}=\frac{1}{250000}$

For a sample of mass 1.2 mg, the amount of uranium is:

$1.2\, mg \cdot \frac{1}{250000}=4.8 \cdot 10^{-6}\,mg$

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

c. hot material must be rising from the Sun's hotter interior

Explanation:

Granulation is the grainy appearance of the solar photosphere produced by the top of the convection cells in the sun.

The grainy appearance are produced by granules on the photosphere of the sun and granules are caused by convection currents of plasma within the sun's convection zone.

The interior of these granules are brighter (and thus hotter) than the exterior of the granules which are darker.

<u>So, the granulation pattern that astronomers have observed on the surface of the Sun tells us that hot material must be rising from the Sun's hotter interior.</u>
