Question 16 (4 points)

Write the isotopic symbol for the following (show your work) a) An isotope of iodine whose atoms have 78 neutrons b) An isotope

morpeh [17]

Answer:

For a: The isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b: The isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c: The isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$

Explanation:

The isotopic representation of an atom is: $_Z^A\textrm{X}$

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

For a:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 78

Atomic number of iodine = 53 = Number of protons

Mass number = 53 + 78 = 131

Thus, the isotopic representation of iodine is $_{53}^{131}\textrm{I}$

For b:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 82

Atomic number of cesium = 55 = Number of protons

Mass number = 55 + 82 = 137

Thus, the isotopic representation of cesium is $_{55}^{137}\textrm{Cs}$

For c:

We are given:

Number of neutrons = 52

Atomic number of strontium = 38 = Number of protons

Mass number = 38 + 52 = 90

Thus, the isotopic representation of strontium is $_{38}^{52}\textrm{Sr}$

If a car is traveling 100 km/h and comes to a stop in 3 minutes,what is acceleration of a passenger who is using vehicle restrai

Rama09 [41]

We are given –

Final velocity of car is, v= 0
Initial velocity of car is, u= 100 km/hr
Time taken, t is = 3 minutes or 180 sec

Here–

$\qquad$ $\pink{\bf \longrightarrow Initial\: velocity = 100 \:km/hr}$

$\qquad$ $\sf \longrightarrow Initial\: velocity = \dfrac{ 100 \times 1000}{3600} \:m/s$

$\qquad$ $\pink{ \bf \longrightarrow Initial\: velocity = 27.78\: m/s}$

Now –

$\qquad$ ____________________________

$\qquad$ $\purple{\bf \longrightarrow Acceleration = \dfrac{Final\: Velocity -Initial \:Velocity }{Time}}$

$\qquad$ $\purple{\bf \longrightarrow Acceleration = \dfrac{v -u}{t}}$

$\qquad$ $\sf \longrightarrow Acceleration = \dfrac{(0- 27.78)}{1800}$

$\qquad$ $\sf \longrightarrow Acceleration =\cancel{ \dfrac{- 27.78}{1800}}$

$\qquad$ $\purple{\bf \longrightarrow Acceleration = -0.15 \: m/s^2}$

$\qquad$ _______________________________

The government, through the FCC (Federal Communications Commission), has set rules and guidelines for the use of radio equipment

Doss [256]

Answer:

Wavelength = 0.06024 m

Explanation:

Equation of energy of wavelength from Einstein's relativity equation is;

E = hc/λ

Where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J. s

c is speed of light = 3 × 10⁸

We are given E = 3.3 × 10^(-24) J

Making wavelength λ the subject, we have;

λ = hc/E

Thus;

(6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ × 3 × 10⁸)/(3.3 × 10^(-24)) = 6.024 × 10^(-2) = 0.06024 m

Wavelength = 0.06024 m
