Which statement best explains how isotopes can have different masses and still be the same element?
ss7ja [257]

Your list of choices is a very short list, and doesn't include any
correct explanation.

The mass of an atom is roughly the number of protons AND neutrons
in its nucleus, but the element only depends on how many protons are there. 

Different atoms of the same element may have different numbers of
neutrons, so their masses are different.  But they're the same element,
because they all have the same number of protons.

the moon revolves around the earth in a nearly circular orbit kept by gravitational force exerted by the earth work done will be
rodikova [14]

Answer:

Zero because the applied force is perpendicular to the motion of the object.

No work is done on an object moving is a circular path about a central attractive force.

Any work done in such a case would result in a change in the orbit.

Odysseus has returned from his epic voyage across the seas and gets off his boat at the end of a 50 meter pier. His beloved Pene
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

We know that:

Distance between Odysseus and Penelope = 50m

Speed of Odysseus = So = 4m/s

Speed of Penelope = Sp = 6m/s.

Now we want to find the equation of motion for Odysseus.

First, let's find the amount of time that he is moving, we know that when he meets with Penelope, he will stop moving.

Now they weel meet each other when the total distance traveled by both of them is equal to 50m.

Then, recalling that:

Distance = Time*speed.

50m = 4m/s*t + 6m/s*t = 10m/s*t

t = 50m/10m/s = 5s

They will move for 5 seconds.

Now we can write the movement equation for Odysseus as:

p(t) = 4m/s*t + p0 for (0s ≤ t ≤ 5s)

Where p0 is the initial position of Odysseus, and because we can put our coordinate axis where we want, we can define p0 = 0m.

Then the position of Odysseus is:

P(t) = 4m/s*t                    if 0s ≤ t ≤ 5s

P(t) = 4m/s*5s = 20m     if t > 5s.

The second piece says that for t larger than 5 seconds, he will not move (at least for a given amount of time)
