The correct option is B.
A neutral atom of an element will have the same number of protons, neutrons and electrons; the number of protons and electrons must be the same in order to cancel out their electrical charge.
An element that has different number of protons and neutrons is an isotope. 
From the question given, A has 7 neutrons and C has 8 neutrons while their protons is 6, therefore they are not neutral, they are isotopes. It is only B that has the same number of protons and neutrons.

A spaceship is traveling toward Earth while giving off a constant radio signal with a wavelength of 1 meter (m). What will the s
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Less than 1 m

Explanation:

When objects are getting closer to each other there is a slight change in the wavelength that is being transmitted by either objects. This is known as the blue shift of waves. Here, the wavelength reduces.

In the opposite case the when objects are getting farther from each other there is a slight change in the wavelength that is being transmitted by either objects. This is known as the red shift. Here, the wavelength increases.

In this case the spaceship is getting close to Earth hence the wavelength will be lower than 1 m.

The central star of a planetary nebula emits ultraviolet light with wavelength 104nm. This light passes through a diffraction gr
Gala2k [10]

Answer: 31.33 degrees

Explanation:

The diffraction angles \theta_{n} when we have a slit divided into n parts are obtained by  the following equation:

dsin\theta_{n}=n\lambda   (1)

Where:

d is the width of the slit

\lambda  is the wavelength of the light

n is an integer different from zero.

Now, the first-order diffraction angle is given when n=1, hence equation (1) becomes:

dsin\theta_{1}=\lambda   (2)

Now we have to find the value of \theta_{1}:

sin\theta_{1}=\frac{\lambda}{d}  

\theta_{1}=arcsin(\frac{\lambda}{d})   (3)

We know:

\lambda=104nm=104(10)^{-9}m

In addition we are told the diffraction grating has 5000 slits per mm, this means:

d=\frac{1mm}{5000}=\frac{1(10)^{-3}m}{5000}

Substituting the known values in (3):

\theta_{1}=arcsin(\frac{104(10)^{-9}m}{\frac{1(10)^{-3}m}{5000}})

\theta_{1}=arcsin(0.52)

<u>Finally:</u>

\theta_{1}=31.33\º >>>This is the first-order diffraction angle

Speed is velocity in a given direction<br> O True<br> O False
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Velocity = speed with direction.

Think of speed and direction like rockets and missiles. Rockets are not smart. Missiles are smart. Rockets go in one direction. Missiles can track their targets, they have a specific destination, a specific direction.

Velocity is often used in physics, because its almost useless to know how fast an object is going if you don't know which direction it is going.

Think of it like this. If the Weather man told you a hurricane was traveling at 30 miles an hour, but didn't tell you which direction it was going, you would have no idea where to run, or if it was going to hit you at all. However, if he told you it was going 30 miles an hour to the North, and you were West of it, you would be fine, and wouldn't have to worry.

fiasKO [112]

Batesian mimicry is an adaptive feature associated with the coloration of a given species in a given environment.

<h3>What is Batesian mimicry?</h3>

Batesian mimicry can be defined as a type of adaptive feature associated with the coloration of a particular species and/or population.

On the first island, the color of the population won't change because of the absence of predators.

On the second island, the color of the population will change because of the presence of predators that can be alerted by the color.

On the third island, the color of the population won't change because of the presence of a species with a similar color.

In conclusion, Batesian mimicry is an adaptive feature associated with the coloration of a given species in a given environment.
