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.

<span>To answer this question, the equation that we will be using is:
 y = A cos bx + c
 where A = amplitude, b = 2 pi/Period, Period = 12 hrs, c = midline,
  x = t and y = f(t)

  A = 1/2 (Xmax - Xmin)
12 - 2 / 2 = 10/2 = 5
  b = 2 pi / 12 = pi/6
  c = 1/2 (Xmax + Xmin)
  12+2/2 = 7
  answer: f(t) = 5 cos pi/6 t + 7 </span>

Calculate the acceleration of a bus that speed up from 20ms-1 to 40ms-1 in 8 seconds?​
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

2.5 ms^-2

Explanation:

acceleration

= (final velocity - initial velocity)/time

= [(40m/s) - (20m/s)]/8s

= (20m/s)/8s

= 5/2 m/s²

= 2.5 m/s²

= 2.5 ms^-2

Why is oxygen gas usually stored in metal cylinders?
olga2289 [7]
The reason oxygen and other gasses are stored in metal cylinders is that of the simple fact it's a gas.  The reasoning behind it is to safely store the gas with no leaking etc.

"The purpose of this safety policy and procedure is to establish guidelines for the protection and safety of ([COMPANY]) employees who handle and use compressed gases. Compressed gases are typically stored under pressure in metal cylinders. These cylinders are designed and constructed to withstand high pressures. Improper handling and use of compressed gases can result in devastating consequences.

This safety policy and procedure provide guidelines for the safe handling and use of compressed gases. It includes provisions for training and presents safe handling guidelines. It also presents the types, uses, inspection, and marking requirements of compressed gas cylinders. Additionally, this safety policy and procedure present transportation and storage requirements for compressed gas cylinders."
