What does 4_2 helium means

Physics
1 answer:

I believe you're asking about Helium with two numbers to the left of it.

Once number is on top of the other.

The 4, which is on top, represents the atomic mass. Helium's atomic mass is 4.

The 2, which is on bottom, represents the number of protons (or atomic number). Helium's number of protons is 2.

I really need help with the graphs
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

t = 2s

Explanation:

When you're looking for instantaneous portions of a graph, of any sort really, it means you're observing a rate at a single point in time [or possibly some other variable]. It's sorta like a snapshot of a rate as opposed to an average rate over an interval. After choosing this rate we'll typically draw a straight, tangent line through it to indicate it's slope. (Tangent lines are just lines that only touch a single point on a graph or shape.)

Another thing to take note of are the values of the graph's major axes. The "y-axis" corresponds to velocity in meters per second, while the "x-axis" corresponds to time in seconds. Normally when relating the two we put "y" over the "x" and say that at any point there are "y[units]" per "x[units]". Though with instantaneous rates, we say the value of "x" is "1"; for reasons I can try to further explain later if you'd like.

With the above information in mind we can turn our attention to your graph. You're told to find the point on this graph where the instantaneous rate of acceleration is -2 m/s². The only place where the graph reflects an instantaneous rate of -2m/s² is at t = 2s. At t = 2, the rate comes out to (2[m/s]/1s), which simplifies to 2m/s². If you then draw the tangent line through the point, you'll find that the line is decreasing (going down from left to right) which means that the instantaneous rate is negative.

So at t = 2s, we have an instantaneous acceleration of -2m/s².

Energy is transferred through a solid
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy through direct contact between particles of a substance, without moving the particles to a new location. Usually occurs in solids. When heat is supplied to one end, molecules at that end start to move more quickly.

with what speed does a freely falling object dropped from a height of 88.2m hit the ground? how long does it take for it hit the
maria [59]

Answer:

Vf = 41.6 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the equations of kinematics.

Vf² = Vo² + (2*g*y)

where:

Vf =  final velocity [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 0

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

y = height = 88.2 [m]

Note: The positive sign of the equation tells us that the acceleration of gravity goes in the direction of motion.

Vf² = Vo² + (2*g*y)

Vf² = 0 + (2*9.81*88.2)

Vf = (1730.48)^0.5

Vf = 41.6 [m/s]
