Olenka [21]3 years ago

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

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Now e is due to the ring at a

So

We say

1/4πEo(ea/ a²+a²)^3/2

= 1/4πEo ea/2√2a³

So here E is faced towards the ring

Next is E due to a point at the centre

So

E² = 1/4πEo ( e/a²)

Finally we get the total

Et= E²-E

= e/4πEo(2√2-1/2√2)

So the direction here is away from the ring

A billiard ball strikes and rebounds from the cushion of a pool table perpendicularly. The mass of the ball is 0.38 kg The ball
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Force is 432.94 N along the rebound direction of ball.

Explanation:

Force is rate of change of momentum.

\texttt{Force}=\frac{\texttt{Final momentum-Initial momentum}}{\texttt{Time}}

Final momentum = 0.38 x -1.70 = -0.646 kgm/s

Initial momentum = 0.38 x 2.20 = 0.836 kgm/s

Change in momentum = -0.646 - 0.836 = -1.472 kgm/s

Time = 3.40 x 10⁻³ s

\texttt{Force}=\frac{\texttt{Final momentum-Initial momentum}}{\texttt{Time}}=\frac{-1.472}{3.40\times 10^{-3}}\\\\\texttt{Force}=-432.94N

Force is 432.94 N along the rebound direction of ball.

Electric field lines always begin at _______ charges (or at infinity) and end at _______ charges (or at infinity). One could als
lesantik [10]

Answer:

b)

Explanation:

By convention, the electric field lines (which are tangent to the direction of the electric field at a given point) always begin at positive charges, and finish at negative charges.

This is a consequence of the convention that states that the electric field has the direction of the trajectory of a positive test charge when released from rest in an electric field.

(As the positive charge would move away from positive charges and would  be attracted by negative ones).

So, the combination of answers that is true is b) (positive, negative, positive).

When the sound from two sound waves goes up and down (loud, soft, loud, soft) it makes a distinctive sound pattern called beats.
djverab [1.8K]

The beats are actually two new sounds.

Their frequencies are (the sum of the original two frequencies) and (the difference of the original two frequencies).

The existence of the beats is the result of the difference in the frequencies of the original two sounds. <em> (b)</em>
