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
Angles 1, 3, and 4 make up a straight line.
Thus, 3x + 90 + 3x - 6 = 180 (angle sum of straight line)
6x - 6 = 90
6x = 96
x = 16
Now angle 1 becomes 3(16) = 48
Angle 1, 2, and 3 also make up a straight line.
Thus, angle 2 + 48 + 90 = 180
angle 2 + 138 = 180
angle 2, therefore, becomes 42. In essence, (A)
Answer:
temperature
Step-by-step explanation:
it dropped by 15 so it subtracted 15. - 15
Answer:
y is equal to -1
x is equal to 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing you would do is multiply the bottom equation by a negative 3. You will get - 6x - 9y = -15. Keep the top equation the same. Both of the 6x's cancel. You then get -11y = 11 so y is equal to negative 1.
Since you have Y, you can now plug that in to any equation to find the value of x. -6x - 2(-1) = 26. You're left with 4. Plug both of the values into each equation to double check.
Answer:
The answer to your question is B.
