The answer is C. An oxygen atom in heavy water has an extra neutron.

I say this because heavy water is also water, but it contains a higher proportion of the hydrogen isotope – deuterium. Two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom makes a water molecule. Deuterium is very much the same as that of normal hydrogen, but contains an extra neutron.

So therefore, the answer is C.

It's
$c) \\$
normal water has only one proton while heavy water (deuterium oxide) has a proton and a neutron

Why do you think silicon is used in electronic components

Feliz [49]

Explanation:

Silicon is used for electronic devices because it is an element with very special properties. One of it's most important properties is that it is a semiconductor. This means that it conducts electricity under some conditions and acts as an insulator under others. ... Silicon is also an abundant element on Earth

A mass M of 3.80E-1 kg slides inside a hoop of radius R=1.10 m with negligible friction. When M is at the top, it has a speed of

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

N = 26.59 N

Explanation:

given,

mass = 0.38 kg

radius of the hoop = 1.10 m

speed = 5.35 m/s

force = ?

now,

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv_t^2 + mg(2R) = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + mgR(1-cos \theta)$

$mv^2 = mv_t^2 + 2mgR(1 + cos \theta)$

we know that,

$N - mgcos \theta = \dfrac{mv^2}{R}$

$N - mgcos \theta = \dfrac{mv_t^2 + 2mgR(1 + cos \theta)}{R}$

$N - mgcos \theta = \dfrac{mv_t^2 }{R}+ 2mg(1 + cos \theta)$

$N = \dfrac{mv_t^2 }{R}+ 2mg + 3mgcos \theta)$

$N = \dfrac{0.38\times 5.35^2 }{1.1}+ 2\times 0.38\times 9.8 + 3\times 0.38 \times 9.8 cos 34^0)$

N = 26.59 N

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The answer is The acceleration is double its original value.

Explanation:

<h2><u>It is because of the second trial of accelaration. Because of this, an object's acceleration doubles from its original value.</u></h2><h2><u></u></h2>

Hope this helps....

Have a nice day!!!!
