Which statement best explains how isotopes can have different masses and still be the same element?

Physics

Your list of choices is a very short list, and doesn't include any
correct explanation.

The mass of an atom is roughly the number of protons AND neutrons
in its nucleus, but the element only depends on how many protons are there. 

Different atoms of the same element may have different numbers of
neutrons, so their masses are different.  But they're the same element,
because they all have the same number of protons.

I need help, ASAP, I know what thermal energy is, but how does a skater use it when on the track?
Flauer [41]

Answer: Looked it up but

Explanation:

When the skater lands on the track, the vertical component of his kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy. You can do experiments where there is no loss to thermal energy (only PE and KE conversions) by turning friction off and by making sure the skater doesn't leave the track.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

hi is

Explanation:

Ans. (1) For preparing vaccines, in olden days,microbes were injected in the bodies of horses ormonkeys. These laboratory animals used to makeantibodies to defend these microbes. Antibodies areproteins which can act against the disease-causinggerms. These antibodies were extracted from theblood of these animals and were used as vaccines.(2) Now-a-days with the advent of biotechnology,the vaccines are manufactured in laboratories withthe help of bacteria. For this purpose, a detailedstudy of the disease causing germ is undertaken.The genes and the DNA of such microbes arethoroughly explored. Then based on thisinformation, proteins which can act against suchmicrobes are synthetically prepared in thelaboratories. The safe vaccine is produced in such away which can defend the body against infections.3) Some types of vaccines are prepared from theextracts of germs. These germs or microbes aredeactivated and made dormant. When they areinjected in the body of a person, they initiate thedefending action. The body of such vaccinatedperson, already develops the antibodies in his or herbody. When in future, this person is again attackedby similar germs the defence starts immediately andthe person does not become sick.

A rope is vibrating so as to form the standing wave pattern shown. How many antinodes are present in the rope?a- 5b- 4c- 8d- 10e
denpristay [2]

c) 8

Explanation

When you shake a rope, the particles in the rope move up and down, and the wave moves forward or away from the source of energy. The rope moves in a direction that is perpendicular

Nodes are the places where the rope doesn't move at all; antinodes occur where the motion is greatest.

Step 1

let's check the graph:

a) Nodes

and Antinodes

so, in the ripe there are 8 antinodes

therefore, the answer is

c) 8
