Answer:

Yes , it is possible  for two different atoms of carbon to have different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei .

Explanation:

Isotopes -

Atoms of the element with same number of the electrons and protons , but differ in the number of neutrons , are called as the isotopes .

The isotopes of the element have the same number of protons and electrons , hence have the same chemical and physical properties .

Many isotopes occurs naturally .

In case of Carbon ,  

Carbon too have isotopes ,  

i.e.  

Carbon - 13 and Carbon - 14

carbon - 13 , have seven neutrons  

Carbon - 14 , have eight neutrons .

Bowling balls are roughly the same size, but come in a variety of weights. Given its official radius of roughly 0.110 m, calcula
velikii [3]

Answer:

6.1328 kg

60.16284 N

Explanation:

r = Radius of ball = 0.11 m

\rho = Density of fluid = 1.1\times 10^3\ kg/m^3 (Assumed)

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m = Mass of ball

V = Volume of ball = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

The weight of the bowling ball will balance the buouyant force

W=F_b\\\Rightarrow mg=V\rho g\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{V\rho g}{g}\\\Rightarrow m=V\rho\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{4}{3}\pi 0.11^3\times 1.1\times 10^3\\\Rightarrow m=6.1328\ kg

The mass of the bowling ball will be 6.1328 kg

Weight will be 6.1328\times 9.81=60.16284\ N

How can a person detect infrared rays without an instrument?
natita [175]
So we want to know how can we detect infrared rays without an instrument. Infrared rays or heat, are a part of electromagnetic spectrum. We have specialized nerve cells in our skin called thermoreceptors that can detect differences in temperature that are produced by infrared part of EM spectrum.

2. Two long parallel wires each carry a current of 5.0 A directed to the east. The two wires are separated by 8.0 cm. What is th
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of magnetic field at given point = 5.33 × 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

Given :

Current passing through both wires = 5.0 A

Separation between both wires = 8.0 cm

We have to find magnetic field at a point which is 5 cm from any of wires.

From biot savert law,

We know the magnetic field due to long parallel wires.

⇒ B = \frac{\mu_{0}i }{2\pi R}

Where B = magnetic field due to long wires, \mu_{0} = 4\pi \times10^{-7}, R = perpendicular distance from wire to given point

From any one wire R_{1}  = 5 cm, R_{2}  = 3 cm

so we write,

∴ B = B_{1} + B_{2}

 B = \frac{\mu_{0} i}{2\pi R_{1} } +  \frac{\mu_{0} i}{2\pi R_{2} }

 B =\frac{ 4\pi \times10^{-7} \times5}{2\pi } [\frac{1}{0.03} + \frac{1}{0.05} ]

 B = 5.33\times10^{-5}  T

Therefore, the magnitude of magnetic field at given point = 5.33\times10^{-5} T
