How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 39 and its mass number is 79?

Physics

6 0

Number of neutrons: atomic mass - atomic number

Element X's atomic mass is 79 and its atomic number is 39. Subtract 39 from 79 to find how many neutrons Element X has.

79 - 39 = 40

Element X has 40 neutrons.

Would you expect to observe every supernova in our own Galaxy? Why or why not?
Taya2010 [7]

Explanation:

Only few supernova are observed in our galaxy -

Type II supernovae ( i.e. the explosions of the massive stars ) occurred in the Milky Way, and they might be hidden by the intervening dust if they are located in the more distant parts of our Galaxy .

Type Ia supernovae , which need a white dwarf star in the binary star system , are brighter than the type II supernovae , but some of them could also happen in the older parts of Galaxy which are hidden due to the buildup of the dust and gas .

Fill in the blanks below:<br><br> Urgently need help!!!
miskamm [114]

Answer:

In a circuit ,<u> VOLTAGE </u>can be said to be the "source" or the "push of electrons". This push then creates what is known as a <u> CURRENT , </u>which is the flow of electric charge through the circuit. This flow can the slowed down or restricted by <u>RESISTOR </u>, and this is also what can be harnessed in order to use electric <u>ENERGY </u>.

Explanation:

Voltage:

It is the 'push' that causes charges to move in a wire or other electrical conductor, also it is a Source input to the electric circuit.

Measured in Volts.

Current:

An electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge from a point or through a region.

Measured in Ampere.

Resistor:

Resistor is used to resist the flow of charge or to resist the current called as Resistance.

Measured in Ohms.

Electric Energy:

Electrical energy is a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge.

Measured in Joules.

In a circuit , voltage can be said to be the "source" or the "push of electrons". This push then creates what is known as a current, which is the flow of electric charge through the circuit.

Light of wavelength 633 nm falls on a single slit 0.5 mm wide and forms a diffraction pattern on a screen 1.0 m away from the sl
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The position of the first dark spot on the positive side of the central maximum is 1.26 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of light is 633 nm.

Slit width, d = 0.5 mm

The diffraction pattern forms on a screen 1 m away from the slit. We need to find the position of the first dark spot on the positive side of the central maximum.

For destructive interference :

\dfrac{dY}{D}=n\lambda

Y is the distance of the minima from central maximum

Here, n = 1

Y=\dfrac{n\lambda D}{d}\\\\Y=\dfrac{1\times 633\times 10^{-9}\times 1}{0.5\times 10^{-3}}\\\\Y=0.00126\ m\\\\Y=1.26\times 10^{-3}\ m\\\\Y=1.26\ mm

So, the position of the first dark spot on the positive side of the central maximum is 1.26 mm.
