The atomic number is the simply the number of protons in the atom. So in the first row with atomic number 2, the number of protons is 2.

If the atom has no charge, which I think you can assume for all of these, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. So the number of electrons is also 2.

The number of neutrons (which are the particles with no charge in the nucleus) is simply the mass number minus the atomic number i.e. 4 - 2 = 2.

The isotopic symbol is the symbol which is found on the periodic table of elements. There are 2 numbers associated which each element on the table. The larger is the mass number and the smaller is the atomic number. The atomic number or number of protons is what identifies the element. Looking at the periodic table ( https://sciencenotes.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/PeriodicTableOfTheElementsBW.pdf or https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_(big) ), it can be seen that the element on the first row above with an atomic number of 2 is Helium with a symbol He. The number that is included with the name is simply the mass number which is 4 in this case, which tells us that this type of helium has 2 neutrons.

Another type (or isotope) of helium is Helium-3 which has one neutron.

Try the next row and post back if you have trouble with it

A 10 kg runaway grocery cart runs into a spring with spring constant 250 n/m and compresses it by 60 cm. what was the speed of t

andrew-mc [135]

The initial kinetic energy of the cart is
$K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2$ (1)
where m is the mass of the cart and v its initial velocity.

Then, the cart hits the spring compressing it. The maximum compression occurs when the cart stops, and at that point the kinetic energy of the cart is zero, so all its initial kinetic energy has been converted into elastic potential energy of the spring:
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2$
where k is the spring constant and x is the spring compression.

For energy conservation, K=U. We can calculate U first: the compression of the spring is x=60 cm=0.60 m, while the spring constant is k=250 N/m, so
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2= \frac{1}{2}(250 N/m)(0.60 m)^2=45 J$

So, the initial kinetic energy of the cart is also 45 J, and from (1) we can find the value of the initial velocity:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 45 J}{10 kg} } =3 m/s$
