Answer:

Helium nucleus

Explanation:

Alpha particles have two protons and two neutrons, wich is the configuration of an Helium Nucleus.

The atomic number of an element it is the number of protons that the element has in its nucleus, this number is uniqe to every element. Helium is the second element in the periodic table so Its atomic number is 2, This means it has two protons and the same amount of neutrons, wich makes alpha particles identical to a helium nucleus, not to a Helium atom, because a Helium atom has electrons and alpha particles don't have electrons.

siniylev [52]

Answer:

0.4 m/s²

Explanation:

average acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity)/ time elapsed

average acceleration = (6 - 4)/5

average acceleration = 2/5

average acceleration = 0.4 meters/seconds squared or 0.4m/s²

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

A = 10 m     amplitude

m = 3 kg     mass of object

Vm = 5 m/s

w A = Vm      where w = omega

w = 2 * pi * f

2 * pi * f  10 = 5

f = 5 / (20 * pi)  = .0796 / sec

Pluto was first observed in 1930, and its largest moon, Charon, was discovered in 1978. A few years after Charon’s discovery, as
mylen [45]

Answer:

The average densities of both matches the expected density for objects made from water ice.

Explanation:

Charon's density is 1.2 to 1.3 g / cm3, while Pluto's density is 1.8 to 2.1 g / cm3. This was discovered in many researches and measurements of these two celestial bodies, with the objective of understanding them and promoting efficient scientific knowledge.

With the measurements of the average densities between pluto and Charon it was possible to conclude several statements about them. Firstly, it is possible to see that the two formed independently and at different times, in addition to indicating the existence of few rocks in charon, which is consistent with the average density of objects made mostly of water ice.
