They want you to pick choice-A , but the whole question is poor and misleading.

The picture sorta kinda roughly presents the concept of the difference in MASSES ... one proton or one neutron has as much mass as about 1,840 electrons.

But things get very complicated on the scale of atoms and their components, and there's actually no such simple concept as the physical SIZE of any of these particles.

If ya wanna be absolutely technically correct, the picture is absurd, and the question has no answer.

Answer:

x represents an electron and y represents a proton and a neutron.

Explanation:

electrons are the smallest particle in an atom and protons and neutrons are a lot larger. thats why only protons and neutrons are weighed in atomic mass. electrons are too small to make a difference in the atom's weight.

Find the length (in m) of an organ pipe closed at one end that produces a fundamental frequency of 494 Hz when air temperature i

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

0.173 m.

Explanation:

The fundamental frequency of a closed pipe is given as

fc = v/4l .................. Equation 1

Where fc = fundamental frequency of a closed pipe, v = speed of sound l = length of the pipe.

Making l the subject of the equation,

l = v/4fc ................ Equation 2

also

v = 331.5×0.6T ................. Equation 3

Where T = temperature in °C, T = 18.0 °c

Substitute into equation 3

v = 331.5+0.6(18)

v = 331.5+10.8

v = 342.3 m/s.

Also given: fc = 494 Hz,

Substitute into equation 2

l = 342.3/(4×494)

l = 342.3/1976

l =0.173 m.

Hence the length of the organ pipe = 0.173 m.

Which statement best explains how isotopes can have different masses and still be the same element?

ss7ja [257]

Your list of choices is a very short list, and doesn't include any
correct explanation.

The mass of an atom is roughly the number of protons AND neutrons
in its nucleus, but the element only depends on how many protons are there.

Different atoms of the same element may have different numbers of
neutrons, so their masses are different. But they're the same element,
because they all have the same number of protons.

The ms = 0.5645 and mk=0.1113 for a 30 N box on level ground. What level force is needed to start the box moving

nevsk [136]

Answer:

16.935 N

Explanation:

In order to make the box start moving, the level force applied on the box (F) must be greater than the force of static friction that keeps the box at rest, which is equal to

$F_f = \mu_s (mg)$

where

$\mu_s = 0.5645$ is the coefficient of static friction

(mg) = 30 N is the weight of the box

Therefore, the condition for F must be:

$F \geq F_f\\F \geq \mu_k (mg)=(0.5645)(30 N)=16.935 N$

So, the applied force must be greater than this value.

A projectile is launched from ground level at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. Neglect air resistance and consider t

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

just before landing the ground

Explanation:

Let the velocity of projection is u and the angle of projection is 30°.

Let T is the time of flight and R is the horizontal distance traveled. As there is no force acting in horizontal direction, so the horizontal velocity remains constant. Let the particle hits the ground with velocity v.

initial horizontal component of velocity, ux = u Cos 30

initial vertical component of velocity, uy = u Sin 30

Time of flight is given by

$T = \frac{2u Sin\theta }{g}$
