Explain why the atomic mass of an element is weighted average mass

Physics
1 answer:
madreJ [45]2 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

The mass written on the periodic table is an average atomic mass taken from all known isotopes of an element. This average is a weighted average, meaning the isotope's relative abundance changes its impact on the final average. The reason this is done is because there is no set mass for an element.

A generator uses a coil that has 100 turns and a 0.50-T magnetic field. The frequency of this generator is 60.0 Hz, and its emf
lana [24]

Answer:

38 m

Explanation:

Number of turns=N=100

Magnetic field=B=0.50 T

Frequency of the generator=f=60 Hz

Rms value of emf=E_{rms}=120 V

We have to find the length of the wire from which the coil is made.

Peak value of emf=E_0=E_{rms}\sqrt 2=120\times \sqrt 2=169.7 V

Length of wire=4\sqrt{\frac{NE_0}{2\pi fB}}

Substitute the values

Length of wire=4\times \sqrt{\frac{169.7\times 100}{0.50\times 2\pi\times 60}}

Length of wire=38 m

Hence, the length of wire from which the coil is made=38 m

Is the relationship between the length of a pendulum and its period is valid at all times?
Stels [109]
Yes it is valid all the times under the consideration of acceleration due to gravity .it is not valid on space where there is no influence of gravity

Riders in a carnival ride stand with their backs against the wall of a circular room of diameter
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

diameter of circular room = 8 m

rotational velocity of the rider = 45 rev/min

                  = 45 \times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}

                  =4.712 rad/s

here in this case normal force is equal to centripetal force

N = m r ω²

N = m x 4 x 4.712²

N = 88.83m

frictional force = μ N

    = 88.83m x μ

now, for the body to not to slide

gravity force is equal to frictional force

m g = 88.83 m x μ

g = 88.83 x μ

9.8 = 88.83 x μ

 μ = 0.11

hence, the correct answer  is option C

The images output from your new color laser printer seem to be a little too blue. What can you do to fix this?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The images output from your new color laser printer seem to be a little too blue. to fix this problem we need to calibrate the printer.

Explanation:

This can be done by opening the toolbox, clicking in the device setting folder their you get print quality page click on it. Under the print quality option click on the calibrate next to calibrate now. Then click OK unless when the 'your request has been sent to the device' appears on the screen. When the calibration ends again try printing. calibrating is useful for managing the proper alignment of the inkjet cartridge nozzle to the paper and each other, without proper calibration the print quality deteriorates.

What is a microwave?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

an electromagnetic wave with a wavelength in the range 0.001–0.3 m, shorter than that of a normal radio wave but longer than those of infrared radiation. Microwaves are used in radar, in communications, and for heating in microwave ovens and in various industrial processes.
