The mass number of an element is the sum of the number of protons plus neutrons.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The element's mass number refers to the summative number of neutron and proton in the nucleus. In the nucleus there is the total number of protons and neutron, summed together to form the atomic mass.

Atomic mass is similar as the mass number in representation. Therefore, we have the following formula for the mass number,

Mass number of an element=Number of protons+Number of neutrons

A small metal bead, labeled A, has a charge of 26 nC . It is touched to metal bead B, initially neutral, so that the two beads s
adell [148]

Answer:

q_A=25.953\ \rm nC

q_B=0.047\ \rm nC

Explanation:

Given:

  • Total initial charge on bead A=26 nC
  • The distance between them=5 cm
  • Magnitude o the force between them =4.4\times10^{-4}

Using coulombs law the force between two charged particle is \dfrac{q_Aq_B}{4\pi \epsilon_0 r^2}

where r is the radial distance between them

According to question we have

4.4\times10^{-4}=\dfrac{q_Aq_B\times9\times10^9}{0.05^2}\\\\4.4\times10^{-4}=\dfrac{q_A(q_A-26\times10^{-9})\times9\times10^9}{0.05^2}\\q_A=25.953\ \rm nC\\q_B=0.047\ \rm nC

Hence the charge on two metal beads is calculated.

Why doesn't the principle of mechanical energy conservation hold in situations when frictional forces are present?
vodomira [7]
When you are talking about the Principle of mechanical Energy Conservation, it is really only including the kinetic and potential energy in a total system. When frictional forces are present, although the conservation of energy law is still present, it does not work when it comes to the conservation of mechanical energy as there is another type of energy that is factored in. As friction acts on the object, that transition from potential to kinetic as it slide/falls will be completely different as some of that energy is being transformed into thermal energy. Which breaks the conservation of mechanical energy.

Use your data to predict what a 400g bag would weigh.
Kobotan [32]

3.92N

Explanation:

Given mass:

Mass of bag = 400g

The mass of a substance is the amount of matter it contains.

Weight of a substance is the vertical force acting on a body in the presence of gravity.

  Weight = mass x gravity

Since the mass of the bag is 400g;

 Now we convert to kg

   1000g  = 1kg

   400g = \frac{400}{1000}  =  0.4kg

  Weight of bag = 0.4kg x 9.8m/s²

   Weight of bag = 3.92N

When the mass of the cylinder increased by a factor of 3, from 1.0 kg to 3.0 kg, what happened to the cylinder’s gravitational p
const2013 [10]

Answer: Fourth option. It increased by a factor of 3.

Solution:

m1=1.0 kg

Cylinder's gravitational potential energy: Ep=m*g*h

Ep1=(1.0 kg)*g*h

Ep1=g*h

m2=3.0 kg

Ep2=(3.0 kg)*g*h

Ep2=3*g*h

Replacing g*h by Ep1 in the equation above:

Ep2=3*Ep1

Then, the cylinder's gravitational potential energy increased by a factor of 3.
