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

Ferns that eject spores generally do so in pairs, with two spores flying off in opposite directions. The structure from which th
Furkat [3]

Answer:

It cancels recoil.

Explanation:

For each action there is an equal an opposite reaction.

The principle of conservation of momentum tell us that if a single spore were ejected the fern would suffer a recoil from it. This recoil would take energy and speed from the spore. But if they are ejected in pairs the recoil is canceled and all the energy is transferred to the spores resulting in higher speeds.

The temperature at a point (x, y) on a flat metal plate is given by T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x2 + y2), where T is measured in °C and x,
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

dt/dx = -0.373702

dt/dy =  -1.121107

Explanation:

Given data

T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x² + y²)

to find out

rate of change of temperature with respect to distance

solution

we know function

T(x, y) = 54 /( 7 + x² + y²)

so derivative it x and y direction i.e

dt/dx = -54× 2x / (7 +x² + y²)²    .........................1

dt/dy = -54× 2y / (7 + x² + y²)²      .........................2

now put the value point (1,3) as x = 1 and y = 3 in equation 1 and 2

dt/dx = -54× 2(1) / (7 +(1)² + (3)²)²  

dt/dx = -0.373702

and

dt/dy =  -54× 2(3) / (7 + (1)² + (3)²)²

dt/dy =  -1.121107
