Assuming this is a neutral atom, protons = electrons = atomic number
Since there are 8 positively charged particles or protons, there are also 8 electrons and that element's atomic number is 8. Neutrons is atomic mass minus atomic number which is 7 neutrons in this case.This element is therefore oxygen.

If a light ray from a candle strikes a mirror at an angle of 40° with the normal, at what angle will the ray reflect?. Select on
tekilochka [14]

Answer: The correct answer is option (C).

Explanation:

Law of reflection:

  • Angle of incident is equal to angle of reflection;∠i=∠r
  • Incident ray, reflected ray and normal to the reflecting interface at the point of incidence all lie in same plane.

When light ray from candle strikes a mirror at an angle of 40° with the normal, then the angle at which ray reflected back will 40°.

How fast does water flow from a hole at the bottom of a very wide, 7.1 mm deep storage tank filled with water
trapecia [35]

Answer:

<h2>The water will move faster</h2>

Explanation:

This happens as part of the consequences of the continuity of an incompressible fluid, of which water is an example.

so as the water emerges from the wider section the flow velocity increases and vice versa.

Hence the flow velocity in indirectly proportional to the area

The continuity equation is given below for our analysis

A1V1=A2V2\\-------------------1

where

            A1= the area of the wider section of the tank

            V1= the flow velocity from the wider section

            A2= the area of the hole at the bottom

            V2= velocity of flow at the bottom.
