Cobalt has an atomic number (Z) of 27, which means the nuclei of all its isotopes have 27 protons. Cobalt 60 has an atomic mass of 60, so it has 60-27 = 33 neutrons.
The mass of 27 isolated protons plus the mass of 33 isolated neutrons would be:
27*(1.007825 u) + 33*(1.008665 u) = 60.497220 u
The actual mass of the nucleus of 60-Co is 59.933820 u.
Mass defect: 60.497220 u - 59.933820 u = 0.563400 u
The mass defect is equal to the binding energy of a nucleus.
using the fact that 1 u = 931.5 MeV/c^2
(0.563400 u)*(931.5 MeV/u) = 524.807 MeV
Answer:
k = 10
Explanation:
The initial polynomial is:
If f(-2) = 0, then when we replace x by -2, the result will be 0. It means that we can write the following equation:
Therefore, we can solve for k as follows:
So, the value of k is 10
Answer:
12.6 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
So first we set it up:
18ft is 100% of the original
and the area of the copies are 70%
Copies: x
x/70 = 18/100
70(18) = 1260
1260/100 = 12.6
x = 12.6
Answer: The system consists of parallel lines
Step-by-step explanation:
Given system of lines :
Substitute in , we get
, which is not true.
That means , system has no solution.
i.e. they are representing parallel lines. [Parallel lines do not intersect and hence they do not have solution.]
