Cobalt has an atomic number (Z) of 27, which means the nuclei of all its isotopes have 27 protons. Cobalt 60 has an atomic mass of 60, so it has 60-27 = 33 neutrons.

The mass of 27 isolated protons plus the mass of 33 isolated neutrons would be:

27*(1.007825 u) + 33*(1.008665 u) = 60.497220 u

The actual mass of the nucleus of 60-Co is 59.933820 u.

Mass defect: 60.497220 u - 59.933820 u = 0.563400 u

The mass defect is equal to the binding energy of a nucleus.
using the fact that 1 u = 931.5 MeV/c^2

(0.563400 u)*(931.5 MeV/u) = 524.807 MeV

Ipatiy [6.2K]
With digits 8, 5, and 6, an odd number must end in 5.
So far, we have _ _ 5.
The 8 is in the hundreds place.
Now we have 8_5.
The only place left for the 6 is the tens place.
The number is 865.

Classify ABC by its sides. Then determine whether it is a right triangle.
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

∴Given Δ ABC is not a right-angle triangle

a= AB = √45 = 3√5

b = BC = 12

c = AC = √45 = 3√5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given vertices are A(3,3) and B(6,9)

            AB = \sqrt{x_{2}-x_{1} )^{2} +(y_{2}-y_{1} )^{2}  }

            AB = \sqrt{(9-3)^{2}+(6-3)^{2}  } = \sqrt{6^{2}+3^{2}  } =\sqrt{45}

Given vertices are  B(6,9) and C( 6,-3)

       B C = \sqrt{x_{2}-x_{1} )^{2} +(y_{2}-y_{1} )^{2}  }

             =  \sqrt{(-3-9)^{2}+(6-6)^{2}  } =\sqrt{12^{2} } = 12

    BC = 12

Given vertices are  A(3,3) and C( 6,-3)

 AC = \sqrt{(6-3)^{2}+(-3-3)^{2}  } = \sqrt{9+36} = \sqrt{45}

AC² = AB²+BC²

45  = 45+144

 45  ≠ 189

∴Given Δ ABC is not a right angle triangle
