PE = mgh
137200 = mg x 200
686 = mg
686/9.81 = m
m = 69.9286.... (idk how many decimals / sig. figs. you need)

Answer:

PE = mgh

137200 = mg x 200

686 = mg

686/9.81 = m

m = 69.9286

Why is the overall charge of the atom neutral or zero?

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

this is because the neutrons do not have a charge, the things that have charge in an atom are electrons and protons.

and in the nucleus of an atom, there are protons and neutrons so you can see that A is not the answer

if you see the periodic table, you will know that the number of electrons and protons are equal, so the charges cancel each other out, hence the charge of an atom will be neutral

let me give you a tip which I got from my teacher, never write there is no charge in the atom, this suggests that there is no protons or electrons.

instead, write, the it is neutral

hope it helps if not please report it so that someone else gets to try it out

In Millikan's oil drop experiment an oil drop is at rest between two large plates separated by 1.3 cm when the potential differe

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Mass of the oil drop, $m=3.01\times 10^{-15}\ kg$

Explanation:

Potential difference between the plates, V = 400 V

Separation between plates, d = 1.3 cm = 0.013 m

If the charge carried by the oil drop is that of six electrons, we need to find the mass of the oil drop. It can be calculated by equation electric force and the gravitational force as :

$qE=mg$
