The formular for determinatio of mass number is this:
Mass number = number of proton + number of neutron
From the question, we are told that:
Mass number = 39
Proton number = 19
Number of proton = ?
Number of neutron = mass number -  number of proton
Number of neutron= 39 - 19 = 20
Therefore, number of neurtron = 20.

A baseball rolls off a 1.20m high desk and strikes the floor 0.50m away from the base of the desk . How fast was it rolling?
noname [10]

The initial velocity of the ball is 1.01 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball rolling off the desk is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform horizontal motion with constant horizontal velocity

- A vertical accelerated motion with constant acceleration (g=9.8 m/s^2, acceleration due to gravity)

We start by analyzing the vertical motion: we can find the time of flight of the ball by using the following suvat equation

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s = 1.20 m is the vertical displacement (the height of the desk)

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity

g=9.8 m/s^2

t is the time of flight

Solving for t,

t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.20)}{9.8}}=0.495 s

Now we analyze the horizontal motion. We know that the ball covers a horizontal distance of

d = 0.50 m

in a time

t = 0.495 s

Therefore, since the horizontal velocity is constant, we can calculate it as

v_x = \frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.50}{0.495}=1.01 m/s

So, the ball rolls off the table at 1.01 m/s.

When the force acting on the body equal to acceleration?
topjm [15]

Answer:

Acceleration and velocity Newton's second law says that when a constant force acts on a massive body, it causes it to accelerate, i.e., to change its velocity, at a constant rate. In the simplest case, a force applied to an object at rest causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force.

Block A of 5 kg with a speed of 3 m/s collides with block B of 10 kg that is stationary. After the collision, block B travels wi
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

-1m/s

Explanation:

We can calculate the speed of block A after collision

According to collision theory:

MaVa+MbVb = MaVa+MbVb (after collision)

Substitute the given values

5(3)+10(0) = 5Va+10(2)

15+0 = 5Va + 20

5Va = 15-20

5Va = -5

Va = -5/5

Va = -1m/s

Hence the velocity of ball A after collision is -1m/s

Note that the velocity of block B is zero before collision since it is stationary
