Answer:

Protons = 50

Mass number = 119

Explanation:

A neutral of tin, Sn, has a Z value of 50 and neutrons are 69.

Z is the atomic number. The atomic number is equal to number of protons or number of electrons in an atom that is neutral i.e:

Z = PROTONS = ELECTRONS

So the number of protons = 50 since Z is 50

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>¦

The bulk of the mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus. To calculate mass number, we simply sum all the elementary particles in the nucleus i.e protons and neutrons. These particles are called the nucleons.

Mass number (A) = P + N

= 50 + 69

= 119

The magnification of a microscope is increased when_________.

azamat

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Magnification of Microscope is

$M = M_o \times M_e$

Mo= Magnification of objective lens and

Me= magnification of the eyepiece.

Both magnifications( of objective and eyepiece) are inversely proportional to the focal length.

Magnification,

$M \propto \dfrac{1}{f}$

when the focal length is less magnification will be high and when the magnification is the low focal length of the microscope will be more.

Thus. Magnification will increase by decreasing the focal length.

The correct answer is Option B

A 1,400 kg car accelerates from rest to 30 m/s in 6.0 seconds. what is the net force on the car?

Allushta [10]

So your finding acceleration first which is 30m/s divides by 6 seconds equals 5m/s^s and then multiply that by 1,400 kg and you have net force which is 7,000N

Can you make the work output of a machine greater than the work input?

drek231 [11]

Nearly equal the output work is greater than the input work because of friction.All machines use some amount of input work to overcome friction.The only way to increase the work output is to increase the work you put into the machine.You cannot get more work out of a machine than you put into it.
