Cobalt has an atomic number (Z) of 27, which means the nuclei of all its isotopes have 27 protons. Cobalt 60 has an atomic mass of 60, so it has 60-27 = 33 neutrons.
The mass of 27 isolated protons plus the mass of 33 isolated neutrons would be:
27*(1.007825 u) + 33*(1.008665 u) = 60.497220 u
The actual mass of the nucleus of 60-Co is 59.933820 u.
Mass defect: 60.497220 u - 59.933820 u = 0.563400 u
The mass defect is equal to the binding energy of a nucleus.
using the fact that 1 u = 931.5 MeV/c^2
(0.563400 u)*(931.5 MeV/u) = 524.807 MeV
The answer is 4
(7+5) divided by 3
Answer:
3.75 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the frame is 3 times the width.
Let the width be x.
The length will be 3x.
Kyle uses 10 feet of wood to make the frame. This means that the perimeter is 10 feet.
The perimeter of a rectangle is:
P = 2(L + W)
=> 10 = 2(3x + x)
=> 10/2 = 4x
5 = 4x
=> x = 5/4 = 1.25 feet
The width is 1.25 feet. The length is therefore:
1.25 * 3 = 3.75 feet
Assuming you typed this correctly, and how you wanted it, then the answer(s) would be x=3, or x=8. Both answers are correct. If it were multiple choice, then the answer would look something like: X=3 or 8.
If you meant 2x, then the answer would be x=8/3. This is a fraction
