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

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a= 92. 13 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Amplitude ,A= 0.165 m

The maximum speed ,V(max) = 3.9 m/s

We know that maximum velocity in the SHM  given as

V(max)  = ω A

ω=Angular speed

A=Amplitude

\omega =\dfrac{3.9}{0.165}\ rad/s

ω=23.63 rad/s

The maximum acceleration given as

a = ω² A

a= (23.63)² x 0.165 m/s²

a= 92. 13 m/s²

Therefore the maximum magnitude of the acceleration will be 92. 13 m/s².

Two photographers are competing for business in town. Andrea uses only film photography and Keira uses only digital photography.
____ [38]

There is no right or wrong answer, your teacher wants you to support your own answer with points. As long as the reasons make logical sense you are fine.

I think they both have valid points. Their replies are both true, but from a buyer's perspective who would you purchase services from? You would get different answers depending on who you ask.

If you choose to go old school, obviously you get an actual photo that can be stored physically. This means it is a memory that can be preserved, and it might feel more nostalgic being able to touch the photo.

On the other hand, a digitally stored photo can be altered (photoshop), but it is forever as long as the internet still exists. A physical photo would fade with time, which doesn't happen with a digital photo.

It is definitely easier to argue that digital photography has more advantages (they do, it is why nobody uses film anymore)

Points you can consider:

Can be transferred to the other side of the world instantly

Ability to make copies and print as many photos as you want

Can be stored on cloud/devices and be like that forever

Compare them with film photography to give a more solid response.

Triss [41]

Answer:

(a) An electric iron works on the heating effect of electric current

(b) The heating effect of an electric current is the tendency for electric current to cause the temperature of the material through which it is flowing to rise due to the resistance of the material

The heating effect, 'E', is given by the formula, E = I²·R·t

Where;

I = The current flowing

R = The resistance of the material

t = The time the material takes to heat up

(c) The values showed by Pinki here is the value of care, concern and prevention, to prevent the harmful effect of the high heat on the skin of her daughter

The 2779-m Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel, connecting Brooklyn and Manhattan, is one of the world's longest underwater vehicular tunnel
Marina CMI [18]
For a cylinder that has both ends open resonant frequency is given by the following formula:
f= \frac{nv}{2L}
Where n is the resonance node, v is the speed of sound in air and L is the length of a cylinder.
The fundamental frequency is simply the lowest resonant frequency.
We find it by plugging in n=1:
f_0= \frac{v}{2L}=\frac{343}{2\cdot 2779}=0.062 Hz
To find what harmonic has to be excited so that it resonates at f>20Hz we simply plug in f=20 Hz and find our n:
20= \frac{n343}{2\cdot 2779} =n\cdot f_0
We can see that any resonant frequency is simply a multiple of a base frequency.
Let us find which harmonic resonates with the frequency 20 Hz:
20=n\cdot f_0\\ n=\frac{20}{0.062}=322.58
Since n has to be an integer, final answer would be 323.
