To start this question, we should know what is the atomic number of cobalt. The atomic number (the number of protons) of Cobalt is Z =27.

Now, we know that a Cobalt 60 isotope means an isotope of Cobalt whose Atomic Mass is 60.

Thus, in a Cobalt 60 isotope, the number of neutrons in the nucleus are

60-Z=60-27=33

From the question we know that the given nuclear mass is 59.933820 u.

Now, the mass defect of Cobalt 60 can be easily calculated by adding the masses of the protons and the neutrons as per our calculations and subtracting the given nuclear mass from it.

Thus,

Mass Defect = (Number of Protons Mass of Proton given in the question) + (Number of Neutrons Mass of Neutron given in the question)-59.933820 u

\therefore 27\times 1.007825+33\times 1.008665-59.933820=0.5634 u

Thus, the required Mass Defect is 0.5634u.

In eV, the Mass Defect is 931.5MeV\times 0.5634=534.807 MeV

Answer:

524.807 MeV

Step-by-step explanation:

The other answer's steps are correct, but they accidentally said 534.807, instead of the correct answer.

A local trucking company fitted a regression to relate the travel time (days) of its shipments as a function of the distance tra
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

The critical values for α = 0.10 are t=±1.7341.

Step-by-step explanation:

The critical values for a two tailed test are the values of t that are placed in the limit of the significance level. If the test statistic t is greater than this critical values, the null hypothesis is rejected.

To determine this values, we first divide the significance level by 2. With a t-table or app, we can determine the t values for P(x>|t|)=α/2=0.05.

In this case, for a degrees of freedom DF=20-2=18, we have the test statistic t=±1.7341 that satisfies the condition.

Solution of the hypothesis test

In this problem we want to prove if the slope of the regression model is different from 0, by means of a hypothesis test.

First, we state the null and alternative hypothesis:

H_0: B_1=0\\\\H_1: B_1 \neq 0

The significance level is \alpha=0.10.

The degrees of freedom for a simple regression model is:

DF=n-2=20-2=18

The standard error estimated of the slope is 0.0053.

The test statistic t is calculated as:

t=\frac{B_1}{SE}=\frac{0.0214}{0.0053} = 4.0377

The P-value for a two-tailed test for a t=4.0377 and DF=18 is:

P=0.00078

The P-value is smaller than the significance level, so the effect is statistically significant. The null hypothesis is rejected.

Triangle CAT was rotated to create triangle C’A’T’. Describe the transformation using details and degrees
Elis [28]

Answer:

As this triangle is being transformed by rotation, the angles will stay same as well as the  sides and other details, if you are doing this on a coordinate plane, then the points of the triangle would be changed and nothing else

If my answer helped, please mark me as the brainliest!!

Thank You!

The youth group is going on a trip to the state fair. The trip costs $52. Included in that price in $11 for a concert ticket and
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

52 = 2x + 11

x = 20.5

Step-by-step explanation:

52 is the total

the 2 passes cost the same price therefore have the same, like, term: x.

11 is the cost of one concert ticket.

mix them in a mixing bowl and done!

52 = 2x + 11

using linear equations do the equation to figure out x.

x = 20.5
