An element's atomic number is 59. How many electrons would an atom of this element have?

Hi,
An element’s atomic number tells how many protons an atom of this element has. Protons have a positive electric charge, while electrons have a negative one. If an atom is electrically neutral (as in this case, otherwise it should have been specified) the number of protons and electrons are equal. So, an atom of the element would have 59 electrons.

Hope this helps! If my answer was not clear enough or you’d like further explanation please let me know. Also, English is not my first language, so I’m sorry for any mistake.

klio [65]
<span>P waves 

P-waves are sometimes called pressure waves, and sometimes they are called longitudinal waves. P-waves are transmitted through the Earth’s interior with a backwards and forwards motion along the line of travel, by alternating compression and dilatation. A jack hammer creates P-waves. They are capable of passing through any type of material they encounter, including the liquid of the Earth’s outer core, although they 
will be bent and deflected when they pass across the boundaries separating 
layers of different densities. 


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!

Which part of a wind-powered system ultimately produces the electricity? A. nacelle B. blade C. turbine D. generator
djverab [1.8K]
<span>The correct answer is: (D) Generator

Explanation:
In wind-powered systems, the wind energy turns the blades around the rotor of a wind turbine. That rotor is connected to a generator that generates electricity. In other words, the kinectic energy of the wind is converted into electrical energy by using the generator in the wind-powered systems.</span>

A student adds two vectors of magnitudes 48 m and 22 m. What are the maximum and minimum possible values for the resultant of th
Julli [10]

Answer:

<em>Maximum=70 m</em>

<em>Minimum=26 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Vector Addition </u>

Since vectors have magnitude and direction, adding them takes into consideration not only the magnitudes but also their respective directions. Two vectors can be totally collaborative, i.e., point to the same direction, or be totally opposite. In the first case, the magnitude of the sum is at maximum. Otherwise, it's at a minimum.

Thus, the maximum magnitude of the sum is 48+22 = 70 m and the minimum magnitude of the sum is 48-22= 26 m
