Hello!

The atomic number is determined only by the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. But, in a neutral atom it also represents the number of electrons in the electron cloud.


Neutrons are only important in the nucleus for helping us find atomic weight, which varies as we move along the perodic table and does not always equal the same amount of it's atomic number. Which is why it would not be a suitable answer for the first blank space. Electrons do not work either as they do not exist inside the nucleus but rather outside the atom.

The second space, since it states is in the electron cloud, we can deduct that electrons would be an appropriate answer there.

If you need anymore help feel free to ask, but I hope this answers your question.

andrezito [222]

Answer

Susan can process wind speed data from different regions.

Explanation

A Doppler radar is used in weather forecasting in measuring the direction and speed of objects such as drops of precipitation. It determines if the movement occurring in the atmosphere is horizontally towards or way from the radar. Susan can obtain velocity data about objects at a distance which might be water droplets thus be able to predict a coming weather
