The mass of Mg-24 is 24.30506 amu, it contains 12 protons and 12 neutrons.

Theoretical mass of Mg-24:

The theoretical mass of Mg-24 is:

Hydrogen atom mass = 12 × 1.00728 amu = 12.0874 amu

Neutron mass = 12 x 1.008665 amu = 12.104 amu

Theoretical mass = Hydrogen atom mass + Neutron mass = 24.1913 amu

Note that the mass defect is:

Mass defect = Actual mass - Theoretical mass : 24.30506 amu- 24.1913 amu= 0.11376 amu

Calculating the binding energy per nucleon:

\frac{B.E.}{nucleon}=\frac{(0.11376amu)(931Mev/amu}{24nucleons}  = 4.41294 Mev/nucleon

So approximately 4.41294 Mev/necleon

A 50 kg skydiver is falling downwards and accelerating 6 m/s2 down. What is the net force on the skydiver?
Montano1993 [528]

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)  (Newton #2)

Net Force = (50 kg) x (6 m/s² down)

Net Force = (50 * 6) (kg-m/s² down)

<em>Net Force = 300 Newtons down</em>

fiasKO [112]

In technical terms, every coil of wire increases the "magnetic flux density" (strength) of your magnet.

So it's A (magnetic field increase)
