Answer:
option a.
Explanation:
We can think of an atom as a nucleus (where the protons and neutrons are) and some electrons orbiting it.
We also know that the mass of an electron is a lot smaller than the mass of a proton or the mass of an electron.
So, if all the protons and electrons of an atom are in the nucleus, we know that most of the mass of an atom is in the nucleus of that atom.
Then we define the mass number, which is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. Such that the mass of a proton (or a neutron) is almost equal to 1u
Then if we define A as the total number of protons and neutrons, and each one of these weights about 1u
(where u = atomic mass unit)
Then the weight of the nucleus is about A times 1u, or:
A*1u = A atomic mass units.
Then the correct option is:
The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by __1__ Atomic Mass unit.
option a.
Answer:
10
Explanation: Earth takes 24 hours to complete one spin, and Mars takes 25 hours. The gas giants rotate really fast. Jupiter takes just 10 hours to complete one rotation. Saturn takes 11 hours, Uranus takes 17 hours, and Neptune takes 16 hours.
Answer:
c) may also be conserved
Explanation:
Momentum is conserved in both elastic and inelastic type of collisions.
But the differences is that:
In an ELASTIC type of collisions, KINETIC ENERGY IS ALSO CONSERVED.
whereas, In an INELASTIC type of collision, KINETIC ENERGY IS NOT CONSERVED.
So unless until type of collision is specified, we can not say anything about the conservation of kinetic energy after collision.
Hence, may also be conserved is the appropriate option here.
