If the atomic number of an atom is 4 and the mass number is 9, then how many electrons does it have

The atomic number of an atom says how many protons it has. This number cant change, since the atomic number is what gives elements their identities (in the periodic table, at least).
The mass number, on the other hand, says how many protons AND neutrons the atom has (so, the sum of P+ and N0). So, electrons have nothing to do with this number.
Atoms are neutrally charged, which means there has to be an equal number of positive and negative particles. The negative particles of an atom are its electrons, and since our atom has 4 protons, it must also have 4 electrons.

List the requirements of practical fuel?
rewona [7]

Answer:

Here we have some of the requirement of practical fuel are

1. It must contain large amount of stored energy.  So that more amount of power output available to run the engines, motors etc.    

2.  It must occur in abundance in nature or be easy to produce.  

3. The fuel must be made up of elements that combine easily with oxygen. Foe example if hydrogen molecules reacts with oxygen. Then the products are at the reaction of lower energy than the reactants, the result is the explosive release of energy and the product of water.

The centripetal force exerted on stunt motorcyclist Biker Bob while riding on the inner vertical surface of a circular track is:
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C.

The normal force is the force exerted by the biker on the inner vertical surface of the circular track.

When the biker move in the circular track centripetal force is acting on the biker which is being balanced by the normal force.

To overcome the gravitation force on the biker the velocity of the biker should be high such that centripetal acceleration of the biker can overcome the gravity force acting on the biker.

While standing on a bridge 40.0 m above the ground, you drop a stone from rest. when the stone has fallen 3.80 m, you throw a se
Norma-Jean [14]
Given: distance 1 d₁ = 40 m;  distance 2 d₂ = 3.8 m   g = -9.8 m/s²

 Initial Velocity Vi = 0  Final Velocity of stone 2 is unknown = ?

Total distance dₓ = d₁ - d₂  = 40 m - 3.8 m = 36.2 m

Formula: a = Vf² -  Vi²/2d   derive for Final Velocity Vf
 
acceleration is now due to gravity, therefore a = g

Vf = √2gd   Vf = √2(9.8 m/s²)(36.2 m)

Vf = 26.64 m/s  

Reason: The second stone will still start from rest.
