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

Please help! the mass of an object is measured on a pan balance with a precision of 0.005 g and the recorded value of 128.01 g.
inysia [295]

Yes, these two objects have different masses.

<h3>How can we calculate that this statement is right ?</h3>

To calculate the precision of mass we are using the formula,

Precision(P) = \frac{m_1}{m_1+\triangle m}

Or,\trianglem=\frac{m_1}{P}-m₁

For the first case we are given,

m₁= The recorded value of mass

= 128.01 g

P= Precision of the mass

=0.005g

So, according to the formula, \trianglem will be,

\trianglem=  \frac{128.01}{0.005}-128.01

Or,\trianglem=25,473.99 g

Or,\trianglem=25.47 Kg

For the first case \trianglem is 25.47 Kg..

For the second case we are given,

m₁= The recorded value of mass

= 0.13 Kg

P= Precision of the mass

=0.005 Kg

So, according to the formula, \trianglem will be,

\trianglem= \frac{0.13}{0.005}-0.13

Or,\trianglem= 25.87 kg

For the second case \trianglem is 25.87 Kg.

For the two cases  \trianglem has different values, 25.47 Kg≠25.87 Kg.

Therefore we can conclude that, these two objects have different masses.

Two satellites, A and B are in different circular orbits
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

The ratio of the orbital time periods of A and B is \frac{1}{2}

Solution:

As per the question:

The orbit of the two satellites is circular

Also,

Orbital speed of A is 2 times the orbital speed of B

v_{oA} = 2v_{oB}        (1)

Now, we know that the orbital speed of a satellite for circular orbits is given by:

v_{o} = \farc{2\piR}{T}

where

R = Radius of the orbit

Now,

For satellite A:

v_{oA} = \farc{2\piR}{T_{a}}

Using eqn (1):

2v_{oB} = \farc{2\piR}{T_{a}}           (2)

For satellite B:

v_{oB} = \farc{2\piR}{T_{b}}              (3)

Now, comparing eqn (2) and eqn (3):

\frac{T_{a}}{T_{b}} = \farc{1}{2}

Be sure to answer all parts. Assume the diameter of a neutral helium atom is 1.40 × 102 pm. Suppose that we could line up helium
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The number of atoms are 1.86\times10^{8}.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter D = 1.40\times10^{2}\ pm

D=1.40\times10^{2}\times10^{-12}\ m

Distance = 2.60 cm

We calculate the number of atoms

Using formula of numbers of atoms

Number\ of\ atoms =\dfrac{2.60\times10^{-2}}{1.40\times10^{2}\times10^{-12}}

Number\of\atoms =1.86\times10^{8}

Hence, The number of atoms are 1.86\times10^{8}.
