Answer:

Both statements I, and II are true

Explanation:

I)One is true.The number of protons of the element is the defining characteristic of it. This is, if we take a proton or add a proton to a nucleus we will be changing the element. Therefore, the number of protons is the same for all neutral and not neutral atoms of that element.

II)Two is true. If an atom is neutral, it will have the same number of electrons and protons. As the number of protons for an element cannot change (see I), then the number of electrons will be the same for all neutral atoms of this element.

III)Three is false. We can have a neutral atoms of the same element with different number of neutrons, as neutrons do not change the charge of the atom(they change their mass, though). These are called Isotopes.

Answer:

0m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity of the boat = 8m/s

Final velocity  = 8m/s

Time taken  = 4s

Unknown:

Acceleration of the boat = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

        A = \frac{v - u}{t}

A is the acceleration

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

    Insert the parameters and solve;

  A = \frac{8-8}{4}   = 0m/s²
