When the core temperature rises, stars start burning helium to carbon. Hydrogen and helium are fused in a shell surrounding the core, raising the temperature.

The most prevalent method of generating energy in the cosmos is hydrogen fusion. The gravitational force is utilised to fuse hydrogen at the centres of our Sun and other stars, where it has a density more than 70 times greater than that of steel. Thus, all of the heat and light on earth comes from fusion. Helium is a chemical element with the atomic number 2 and the symbol He. The first member of the noble gas group in the periodic table, it is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, inert, monatomic gas that is not harmful.

How many protons are in Calcium? (* Hint: The Atomic number of Calcium is 20).
ryzh [129]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 20

Explanation:

Atomic number is the number of proton and atom has. Each element has a specific number of protons, if the number of protons change, then this is a new element.

Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons and atom has.

                       Mass number = protons + neutrons

Data

Number of protons = ?

Atomic number = 20

Then,

           atomic number = number of protons = 20

The weight of an astronaut plus his space suit on the moon is only 291 n. how much (in n) do they weigh on earth? (the accelerat
Oksanka [162]
Weight on the Moon = 291 N.
W = g · m, where m stays for the mass and on the Moon g = 1.67 m/s²
291 N = 1.67 m/s² · m
m = 291 kg m / s² : 1.67 m/s²
m = 174.25 kg
Weight on Earth = 9.81 m/s² · 174.25 kg = 1,709.4 N
Answer:
The weight of an astronaut on Earth is 1,709.4 N.
