<span> 1.the atom has 7 neutrons and 8 protons....

because the positively charged particles are the protons ...and 8 is also the atomic number ...so number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting </span>atomic number from the mass number...which gives us the neutrons 7 ...

Hope it helps !!!

Answer:

1.the atom has 7 neutrons and 8 protons.

Explanation:

In any atom positively charged particles are protons while the total mass of the atom is due to protons and neutrons both

So here we can say that

Number of protons in this atom is 8

Total number of neutron + protons = total mass

N + Z = 15

so we have

N + 8 = 15

N = 7

so correct answer will be

1.the atom has 7 neutrons and 8 protons.

If you walk 1.2 km north and then 1.6 km east, what are the magnitude and direction of your resultant displacement?
vodomira [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

 Option A is the correct answer.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Let the east point towards positive X-axis and north point towards positive Y-axis.

 First walking 1.2 km north,  displacement = 1.2 j km

 Secondly 1.6 km east, displacement = 1.6 i km

 Total displacement = (1.6 i + 1.2 j) km

 Magnitude = \sqrt{1.2^2+1.6^2} = 2 km

 Angle of resultant with positive X - axis = tan^{-1}(1.2/1.6)=36.87^0 = 36.87⁰ east of north.
