Answer : The correct option is, (D) electrically neutral

Explanation :

There are three subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons and neutrons are present in the center of the nucleus and electrons are located around the nucleus. The protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged and neutrons are neutral, they have no charge.

In an electrically neutral atom, the number of protons are equal to the number of electrons.

In a positively charged and negatively ions, the number of protons are not equal to the number of electrons.

In a radioactive stable atom, the number of protons are not equal to the number of electrons.

Hence, an equal number of protons and electrons in an atom typically results in an atom that is electrically neutral.

How many atoms are in 187 g of Calcium?
N76 [4]
Atomic mass Calcium ( Ca) = 40.078 u.m.a

40.078 g --------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
187 g ------------------- ??

187 x ( 6.02x10²³) / 40.078 =

1.125x10²⁶ / 40.078 = 2.808x10²⁴ atoms

hope this helps!

Jack is playing with a Newton's cradle. As he lifts one ball to position A and drops it, it impacts the other balls at position
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Newton's Cradle is a neat way to demonstrate the principle of the CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM.

What happens here is when the ball on one end of the cradle is swung and it hits the other balls that are motionless, or stationary, the momentum of the swinging ball is transferred to the next ball upon impact.

Momentum is not lost in this action, what happens when it hits the next ball, the momentum is transferred to the next one, and then the next, and the the next, till it reaches the last ball on the other end. Since nothing is next to the last ball, it pushes the ball upwards, which will swing down and repeat the process going the other way.

This also demonstrates the CONSERVATION OF ENERGY. As you will see, the energy continues to move through the other balls, passing it from one ball to the other, which keeps this constantly moving.

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

D. Many, many years of deposition

Explanation:

The layers of the rocks in one region of the parks are smooth and distinct, which are evidence of many, many years of deposition.

The layers on the rocks are because of different deposition of sediments. Different sediments deposited over the rocks through wind, water and ice over the ages.

Hence, the correct answer is D.
