How many neutrons does an atom of Dubnium have in its nucleus

1 answer:

5 0

Dubnium is a synthetic element ... Number 105. It can be created
in a laboratory but it's not found in nature.

Fifteen (15) different isotopes of Dubnium have been created. They all
have 105 protons in the nucleus of every atom, but they have anywhere
from 256 to 270 neutrons in each nucleus.

The most stable isotope of Dubnium is ²⁶⁸Db , with 163 neutrons in the
nucleus. That form of Dubnium atom has a 50-50 chance of surviving
for around 28 hours before it falls apart.

The Moon orbits Earth in an average of p = 27.3 days at an average distance of a =384,000 kilometers. Using Newton’s version of

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The mass of the earth, $M=6.023\times 10^{24}\ kg$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Time taken by the moon to orbit the earth, $T=27.3\ days=2358720\ m$

Distance between moon and the earth, $r=384000\ km=384\times 10^6\ m$

We need to find the mass of the Earth using Kepler's third law of motion as :

$T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}r^3$

$M=\dfrac{4\pi^2r^3}{T^2G}$

$M=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times (384\times 10^6)^3}{(2358720)^2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}}$

$M=6.023\times 10^{24}\ kg$

So, the mass of the earth is $6.023\times 10^{24}\ kg$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the speed of a car traveling 100 m in 20 s?

Ludmilka [50]

Answer: To answer this question, we will need the following equation: SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME (A multiplication and division triangle will be shown)i) The speed of the car is calculated by doing 100 metres/ 20 seconds which gives us 5 metres per second. ii) Rearranging the equation earlier, we can make the distance the subject of the equation so that we get SPEED x TIME = DISTANCE. We worked out the speed and the time was given as 1 minute 40 seconds but we cannot plug in the numbers yet as the time has to be converted to units of seconds (because our speed is in meters per second). 1 minute 40 seconds = 60 seconds + 40 seconds = 100 secondsWe then plug in the numbers to get the distance travelled = 5 metres per second x 100 seconds = 500 metres.

A racquetball strikes a wall with a speed of 30 m/s and rebounds in the opposite direction with a speed of 26 m/s. The collision

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The average acceleration of the ball during the collision with the wall is $a=2,800m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Known Data

We will asume initial speed has a negative direction, $v_{i}=-30m/s$ , final speed has a positive direction, $v_{f}=26m/s$ , $\Delta t=20ms=0.020s$ and mass $m_{b}$ .
