Answer:

15

Explanation:

The mass number is defined as the total number of protons and neutrons. The atomic number is total number of protons. And since we have the mass number and number of neutrons, we can use simple subtraction (30 - 15) to find that the atomic number is 15.

A skateboarder shoots off a ramp with a velocity of 7.3 m/s, directed at an angle of 60° above the horizontal. The end of the ra
erica [24]

Answer:

y maximum   3.54 m, value X  2.35 m

Explanation:

We have a projectile launch problem, let's calculate the maximum height of the projectile, where the vertical speed must be zero

                     

        Vyf² = Vyo² - 2g (Y-Yo)

Where Yo is the initial height of the ramp 1.5 m

        0 = Vyo² -2g (Y-Yo)

        Y-Yo = Voy² / 2g

       Y = Yo + Voy² / 2g

Let's calculate the velocity components using trigonometry

       Voy = vo without T

       Vox = Vo cost

       Voy = 7.3 sin 60

       Vox = 7.3 cos 60

       Voy = 6.32 m / s

       Vox = 3.65 m / s

Let's calculate the maximum height

         Y = 1.5 +6.32²/2 9.8

          Y = 3.54 m

This is the maximum height from the ground

b) They ask us for the position of this point horizontally, we can calculate it looking for the time it took for the skateboarder to reach the highest point

                             

          Vfy = Voy - gt

          0 = Voy - gt

           t = Voy / g

           t = 6.32 / 9.8

           t = 0.645 s

     

Since there is no acceleration on the x-axis, we have a uniform movement, we can calculate the distance for this time

          X = Vox t

          X = 3.65 0.645

          X= 2.35 m

What is the range of wavelengths that our eyes can see on the spectrum(this is called visible light spectrum)
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

380 to 700 nanometers

Explanation:

The visible light spectrum is the segment of the electromagnetic spectrum that the human eye can view. More simply, this range of wavelengths is called visible light. Typically, the human eye can detect wavelengths from 380 to 700 nanometers.

3. Why is the term cold blooded a misconception? Explain​
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

The term “cold-blooded” implies that these animals are in a never-ending struggle to stay warm. That really isn't correct. A cold-blooded animal can warm up their blood by being in the sun for hours.

Acceleration Practice
Trava [24]

Answer:

0.85 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time. In mathematically, it can be expressed as:

\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{\vec v_2 - \vec v_1}{t_2-t_1}}

Our final velocity is given to be 17 m/s in 20 seconds. Initial velocity is at starting point which is 0 m/s in 0 second. Therefore:

\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{17-0}{20-0}}\\\\\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{17}{20}}\\\\\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = 0.85 \ \, \sf{m/s^2}}

Therefore, the acceleration of a horse from starting point to 17 m/s in 20 seconds is 0.85 m/s²
