The total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom

Physics
1 answer:
rewona [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Is the mass number

Explanation:

Every atom is usually identified by using two different numbers:

- Atomic number: generally labelled with Z, corresponds to the number of protons in the nucleus, so Z = p

- Mass number: generally labelled with A, corresponds to the number of protons+neutrons in the nucleus, so A = p + n

To find the number of neutrons in a nucleus, therefore, we can do

n = A - Z

A 3.1 kg ball is dropped from the top of a 38 m tall building. What is the speed of the ball when it is halfway from the buildin
Archy [21]

Answer:

19.3m/s

Explanation:

Use third equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2gh

where v is the velocity at halfway, u is the initial velocity, g is gravity (9.81m/s^2) and h is the height at which you'd want to find the velocity

insert values to get answer

v^2-0^2=2(9.81m/s^2)(38/2)\\v^2=9.81m/s^2 *38\\v^2=372.78\\v=\sqrt[]{372.78} \\v=19.3m/s

A box slides down a 31° ramp with an acceleration of 0.99 m/s2. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box an
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:\mu=0.48

Explanation:

Given

inclination \theta =31^{\circ}

Acceleration of object=0.99 m/s^2

Now using FBD

mg\sin \theta -f_r=ma

mg\sin \theta -\mu mg\cos \theta =ma

a=g\sin \theta -\mu g\cos \theta

0.99=5.04-\mu 8.4

\mu 8.4=4.057

\mu =0.48

Binding of a signaling molecule to which type of receptor leads directly to a change in the distribution of substances on opposi
Mrac [35]

When two sides of a membrane are in contact with each other, the distribution of ions will alter as a result of the binding of a signal molecule to a ligand-gated ion channel.

<h3>What is a ligand-gated ion channel?</h3>

Ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) are membrane proteins that are structurally integral and feature a pore that permits the controlled passage of particular ions across the plasma membrane. The electrochemical gradient for the permeant ions drives the passive ion flux.

When a chemical ligand, such as a neurotransmitter, attaches to the protein, ligand-gated ion channels open. Changes in membrane potential cause voltage channels to open and close. When a receptor physically deforms, as in the case of pressure and touch receptors, mechanically-gated channels open.
