A=atomic mass 
Z=atomic number  (nº of protons).
N=neutons.

A=Z+N

Data:
A=39
Z=19

A=Z+N
39=19+N
N=39-19=20.

It therefore has 20 neutrons in its nucleus.

harkovskaia [24]

After conducting in-depth research into education and science influencers - delving into scientific theories on weight and measurement - we conceived of the Gnome Experiment – a global research project aimed at proving the scientific theory that gravity varies from place to place affecting weight.

How many ways can you see that heat can transfer from the inside to the outside of your home on a cold day? List at least three
Yanka [14]

Answer: Heat transfers through brick walls and glass through conduction. In conduction heat is transferred by vibration of molecules. most energetic molecules vibrate and pass on the energy to less energetic molecules. Then they vibrate and further pass on the  energy. In this way heat is transferred out of the home. Heat also transfers through the leakage of warm air from doors and windows. This occurs through convection. In convection energy is transferred through bulk movement of liquid and air molecules. Heat also transfers from insulation. in insulation there is no material in between the layers. So heat transfer through insulation occurs through radiations that occurs by X-Rays, Ultravoilet rays etc.

A ball falling through the air has what?
AysviL [449]
A ball falling through the air has a mass, a density, a volume...it is facing air resistance and is being acted on by gravity...it is accelerating and gaining velocity...and it is increasing in kinetic energy.
I suppose out of all those the biggest thing the ball has in this case is ENERGY. There are two main types to focus on...

Kinetic Energy - The further the ball fall the more KE it has...until terminal velocity is reach, then KE would become constant. 
Potential Energy - Conversely to that of KE, the further the ball falls the less PE it will have. 

<em>Heat/Thermal Energy is technically also present due to the friction from the air resistance, but the transfer of energy between the air and ball is quite complex and not necessary important for basic physics.  
</em>
The question itself seem kind of vague and open ended, but I could just be viewing it the wrong way. 
Comment if you need more help!
