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.

not all objects have a volume that is measured easily. If you were to determine the mass, volume, and density of your textbook,
Maslowich

Text book: We can measure the mass of the text book easily by weighing machine, to measure the volume we need to measure the length, width, and height of the text book by the ruler, by multiplying these dimension we can get the volume of the text book, and by dividing the mass of the book with its volume we can get the density of the book.

Milk Container: We can measure the mass of the milk container easily by weighing machine, now (assuming the milk container is cylindrical in shape) we need to measure its height, and and diameter and by the formula (π*r^2*h) we can measure its volume, and and by dividing the mass  with its volume we can get the density of the milk container.

Air filled balloon: we can measure the mass of the air filled balloon by weighing it weight machine, we know that the density of air is 28.97 kg/m^3, by dividing the mass of the balloon with the denisty of air we can get the volume of the balloon.

Express the kinetic energy K in terms of the potential energy U.<br><br><br> K=GMm/2R
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

K = -½U

Explanation:

From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;

U = -GMm/R

Where,

G is gravitational constant

M and m are the two masses exerting the forces

R is the distance between the two objects

Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;

K = GMm/2R

Re-rranging, we have;

K = ½(GMm/R)

Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;

K = -½U
