What is the atomic mass of silicon

Physics
2 answers:
Reika [66]3 years ago
7 0

The atomic number of Silicon is 14.  So there are 14 protons in the nucleus of every Silicon atom.  But that's not the mass.  Besides the protons, there are also some neutrons, and the atomic mass of the atom is the total number of (protons + neutrons) in its nucleus.

The number of neutrons is not the same in every Silicon atom.  There are 3 stable isotopes of Silicon.  A Silicon nucleus can have 14, 15 or 16 neutrons.

So an atom of Silicon can have an atomic mass of <em>28, 29, or 30</em>.

Acar goes from 20m/s to 30m/s in 10 seconds what is its acceleration
prohojiy [21]

Acceleration = change in velocity/change in time

                     = (30 - 20) / 10 - 0

                      = 10 / 10

Acceleration = 1 m/s²

The rotational inertia I of any given body of mass M about any given axis is equal to the rotational inertia of an equivalent ho
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let mass of cylinder be M

Moment of inertia of cylinder

= 1/2 M R² r is radius of cylinder

If radius of equivalent  hoop be k

Mk² = 1/2 x MR²

k = R / √2

1.2 / 1.414

Radius of gyration = 0.848 m

b )

moment of inertia of spherical shell

= 2 / 3 M R²

Moment of inertia of equivalent hoop

Mk²

So

Mk² = 2 / 3 M R²

k = √2/3 x R

= .816 X 1.2

Radius of gyration = .98 m

c )

Moment of inertia of solid sphere

= 2/5 M R²

Moment of inertia of equivalent hoop

= Mk²

Mk² = 2/5 M R²

k √ 2/5 R

Radius of gyration = .63 R

The earth's gravity is pulling on you. Are you pulling on the earth? Explain why or why not.
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

"we both attract each other with the same force but we know that attraction between two bodies depends upon their mass, greater the mass of two bodies is the force of attraction between them"(got this off the internet).

An electron is pushed into an electric field where it acquires a 1-V electrical potential. Suppose instead that two electrons ar
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

0.5 V

Explanation:

The electric potential distance between different locations in an electric field area is unaffected by the charge that is transferred between them. It is solely dependent on the distance. Thus, for two electrons pushed together at the same distance into the same field, the electric potential will remain at 1 V. However, the electric potential of one of the two electrons will be half the value of the electric potential for the two electrons.
