How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 48 and its mass number is 167?

Physics
1 answer:
lys-0071 [83]3 years ago
6 0
If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom.  Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.

If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are

             (167 - 48)  =  119 neutrons

in each nucleus.

Calculate the broadcast wavelength of the radio station 99.90 fm. seconds
taurus [48]

The radio waves are electromagnetic wave, so it travels with velocity of light i.e 3\times 10^{8} \ m/s.

We can use the relation between frequency, wavelength and speed as

\lambda =\frac{c}{f}

Here c is speed of light, \lambda is wavelength and f is frequency and its value is given 99.90 FM, it is actually in megahertz  (i.e 99.90 MHz).

Therefore,

\lambda =\frac{3 \times 10^{8}\ m/s }{99.90 \times 10^{6} \ Hz} = 3.003 \ m.

Thus, the broadcast wavelength of the given radio station is 3.003 m.

A 3.50-meter length of wire with a cross-sectional area of 3.14 × 10-6 meter2 is at 20° Celsius. If the wire has a resistance of
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m

Explanation:

Resistivity is given by \rho=\frac {AR}{L} where A is cross-sectional area, R is resistance, L is the length and \rho is the reistivity. Substituting 0.0625 for R, 3.14 × 10-6 for A and 3.5 m for L then the resistivity is equivalent to

\rho=\frac {3.14\times 10^{-6}\times 0.0625}{3.5}=5.60714285714285714285714285714285714285\times 10^{-8}\approx 5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m
