Beryllium has a mass number of 9 and 4 protons. To find the number of neutrons you need to subtract the number of protons from the mass number. so...
neutrons = mass - # protons
neutrons = 9 - 4 = 5

All atoms of the element potassium have 19 protons. One of the most stable types of potassium atoms has the mass number 39. How

nydimaria [60]

For atoms in the periodic table, the given mass number is the sum of the number of the protons (also called the atomic number) and the number of the neutrons inside its nucleus. Mathematically,
mass number = atomic number + number of neutrons
Substituting,
39 = 19 + n
n = 39 - 19 = 20
Therefore, the answer is not found in the choices.

Suppose that you are swimming in a river while a friend watches from the shore. In calm water, you swim at a speed of 1.25 m/s .

aliya0001 [1]

Answer: The observing friend will the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s.

Explanation:

Let <em>S</em> be the speed of the swimmer, given as 1.25 m/s

Let $S_{0}$ be the speed of the river's current given as 1.00 m/s.

Note that this speed is the magnitude of the velocity which is a vector quantity.

The direction of the swimmer is upstream.

Hence the resultant velocity is given as, $S_{R}$ = S — S 0 $S_{0}$

$S_{R}$ = 1.25 — 1

$S_{R}$ = 0.25 m/s.

Therefore, the observing friend will see the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s due to resistance produced by the current of the river.

Lena [83]

Answer:

Pressure will be $6072449.952Pa$

Explanation:

We have given mass of the women m = 65 kg

Radius of the heels r = 0.578 cm = 0.00578 m

We have to find the pressure

We know that pressure is given by

$P=\frac{F}{A}=\frac{mg}{A}$

So force F = mg = 65×9.8 = 637 N

Area $A=\pi r^2=3.14\times 0.00578^2=1.049\times 10^{-4}m^2$

So pressure $p=\frac{637}{1.049\times 10^{-4}}=6072449.952Pa$

hram777 [196]

Answer: The free ending nerves.

Explanation:

At our fingertips, we have a lot of sensory nerve endings, that give information about changes that occur at your skin.

Like touching something with a given texture, feeling pain, or noticing changes in temperature.

There are different types of nerve endings, particularly the ones responsible to detect pain, and temperature are the free nerve endings.

So Marcus may have the free nerve endings damaged.
