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 60 g ball of clay is thrown horizontally at 40 m/s toward a 1.5 kg block sitting at rest on a frictionless surface. the clay h
Bingel [31]
The solution for this problem is:
Let u denote speed. 

Equating momentum before and after collision: 
= 0.060 * 40 = (1.5 + 0.060) u 
= 2.4 = 1.56 u
= 2.4 / 1.56 = 1.56 u / 1.56
= 1.6 m / s is the answer for this question. This is the speed after the collision.

Two charges, one of 2.50μC and the other of -3.50μC, are placed on the x-axis, one at the origin and the other at x = 0.600 m
aev [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

charge of first body q_1=2.5\ mu C

charge of second body q_2=-3.5\ mu C

Particle 1 is at origin and particle 2 is at x=0.6\ m

third Particle which charge +q must be placed left of 2.5\mu C because it will repel the q charge while -3.5\mu C will attract it

suppose it is placed at a distance of x m

F_{1q}=\frac{kq(2.5)}{x^2}

F_{2q}=\frac{kq(-3.5)}{(0.6+x)^2}

F_{1q}+F_{2q}=0

\frac{kq(2.5)}{x^2}+\frac{kq(-3.5)}{(0.6+x)^2}=0

\frac{kq(2.5)}{x^2}=\frac{kq(3.5)}{(0.6+x)^2}

\frac{0.6+x}{x}=(\frac{3.5}{2.5})^{0.5}

0.6+x=1.1832x

x=3.27\ m

Explain the difference between the terms "rotation" and "revolution"
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

"Rotation" refers to an object's spinning motion about its own axis. "Revolution" refers the object's orbital motion around another object. For example, Earth rotates on its own axis, producing the 24-hour day. Earth revolves about the Sun, producing the 365-day year.
