Why does the band of stability curve upward at high atomic numbers? excess neutrons are required due to the repulsion between th

e protons. atoms with high atomic numbers have a large number of electrons orbiting the nucleus. this increased number of electrons requires a lot of extra mass in the nucleus to keep the electrons in their orbit?

The band of stability curves upward at high atomic numbers due to the fact that excess of neutrons are required due to the repulsion between protons.

Atomic number is the number of protons. As the number of protons (atomic number) increase, the electrical repulsion force, due to the same sign of the protons inside the nucleus, becomes more dominant compared to the nuclear force attractions, then the nucleus needs more neutrons to gain stability.The presence of more neutrons decrease the density of protons which decreases the repulsion among them.

A boy threw a ball upward and it took 3 sec to reach the highest point. Determine the initial velocity of the ball.
makkiz [27]

Answer:

V initial = 29.4 m.s²

Explanation:

( Using the laws of motion)

V final = V initial + Acceleration × time

0 = V initial + ( -9.8)(3)

29.4 = V initial

* I took upward as positive that's why I substituted -9.8 *

* for V final we know that at maximum height the ball is not moving thats why is = 0 *

The wind is blowing horizontally at 30 m / s in a storm at P o , 20°C toward a wall, where it comes to a stop (stagnation) and l
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

 To=20.44 °C    

Explanation:

Given that

Velocity , v= 30 m/s

Temperature , T= 20°C

We know that specific heat capacity for air ,Cp=1.005 kJ/kg.K

By using energy conservation ,the stagnation temperature is given as

T_0=T+\dfrac{v^2}{2C_p}

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

T_0=(20+273)+\dfrac{30^2}{2\times 1.005\times 1000}\ K

To= 293.44 K

To= 293.44 - 273 °C

To=20.44 °C

Therefore the stagnation temperature will be 20.44 °C.

What does the thermosphere and stratmosphere have in common
Darya [45]

these include the troposphere (0 to 16 km), stratosphere (16 to 50 km), mesosphere (50 to 80km) and thermosphere (80 to 640km). The boundaries between these four layers are defined by abrupt changes in temperature, and include respectively the tropopause, stratopause and mesopause.

g 2. _______The property(ies) of a thermal system is (are)(A) temperature or (B) internal energy or (C) work.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

(A) temperature

Explanation:

Given that thermal properties of a material are those properties that can be observed or felt when the heat is added to the material.

Hence, in this case, the correct answer is "Temperature."

On the other hand, the internal energy is not a thermal property but rather an extensive property that cannot be assessed directly.

Also, work is not a thermal property but rather a process quantity.
