B is false.

not all carbon atoms have 6 neutrons. Carbon 13 for example has 7 neutrons
goldenfox [79]3 years ago

Answer:

B)

Explanation:

As stated in A): The number of protons in ANY element is the same.

But, the atomic mass may be different, and the reason for this, is a change in the number of <em>neutrons. </em>

C) is true, because the atomic mass of any atom is equal to the number of protons and neutrons.

D) is true, as said before: The number of protons in ANY element is the same. And the atomic number of any atom is equal to the number of protons.

Gravity is _____ force between objects that are moving closer to one another.
pishuonlain [190]

Gravity is a pair of forces of attraction between every
two objects. Period !

It doesn't matter whether they're moving together, moving apart,
moving gracefully in synchrony, or at rest.  The gravitational forces
of attraction between them are always there.

A 5.0-ohm resistor, a 10.0-ohm resistor, and a 15.0-ohm resistor are connected in parallel with a battery. The current through t
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

E = 3456 J

Explanation:

The electrical energy expended in a resistor can be easily calculated by using the following formula:

E = Pt

where,

E = Energy Expended = ?

I = current through 5 ohm resistor = 2.4 A

R = Resistance = 5 ohms

P = Electrical Power = VI

Since,

V = IR (Ohm's Law)

Therefore,

P = (IR)(I) = I²R = (2.4 A)²(5 ohms) = 28.8 Watt

t = time taken = (2 min)(60 s/1 min) = 120 s

Therefore,

E = (28.8 Watt)(120 s)

<u>E = 3456 J</u>

Discuss the limitations of using the Doppler shift to determine an object's speed.
pantera1 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Limitation of Doppler shift :

The Doppler impact is relevant when the speeds of the wellspring of sound and spectator are considerably less than the speed of sound. The movement of both the spectator and the source is along a similar straight line.When movement is not in straight line or velocity is not much less than speed of light then we can not use Doppler shift

This is the limitation of Doppler shift to determine the object distance

1.a bag is dropped from a hovering helicopter. the bag has fallen for 2 s. what is the ball's velocity at the instant its hittin
omeli [17]

1. The bag's velocity immediately before hitting the ground.

Recall this kinematics equation:

Vf = Vi + aΔt

Vf is the final velocity, Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and Δt is the time elapsed.

Given values:

Vi = 0m/s (you assume this because the bag is dropped, so it falls starting from rest)

a is 9.81m/s² (this is the near-constant acceleration of objects near the surface of the earth)

Δt = 2s

Plug in the values and solve for Vf:

Vf = 0 + 9.81×2

Vf = 19.62m/s

2. The height of the helicopter.

Recall this other kinematics equation:

d = ViΔt + 0.5aΔt²

d is the distance traveled by the object, Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and Δt is the time elapsed.

Given values:

Vi = 0m/s (bag is dropped starting from rest)

a = 9.81m/s² (acceleration due to gravity of the earth)

Δt = 2s

Plug in the values and solve for d:

d = 0×2 + 0.5×9.81×2²

d = 19.62m

3. Time of the bag's fall and its velocity immediately before hitting the ground... if it started falling at 2m/s

Reuse the equation from question 2:

d = ViΔt + 0.5aΔt²

Given values:

d = 19.6m (height of the helicopter obtained from question 2)

Vi = 2m/s

a = 9.81m/s² (acceleration due to earth's gravity)

Plug in the values and solve for Δt:

19.6 = 2Δt + 0.5×9.81Δt²

4.91Δt² + 2Δt - 19.6 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to get values of Δt (a quick Google search will give you the formula and how to use it to solve for unknown values):

Δt = 1.8s, Δt = −2.2s

The formula gives us 2 possible answers for Δt but within the situation of our problem, only the positive value makes sense. Reject the negative value.

Δt = 1.8s

Now we can use this new value of Δt to get the velocity before hitting the ground:

Vf = Vi + aΔt

Given values:

Vi = 2m/s

a = 9.81m/s²

Δt = 1.8s (result from previous question)

Plug in the values and solve for Vf:

Vf = 2 + 9.81×1.8

Vf = 19.66m/s

A 110 kg hoop rolls along a horizontal floor so that the hoop's center of mass has a speed of 0.220 m/s. How much work must be d
Softa [21]

Answer:

the work that must be done to stop the hoop is 2.662 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the hoop, m = 110 kg

speed of the center mass, v = 0.22 m/s

The work that must be done to stop the hoop is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the hoop;

W = ΔK.E

W = ¹/₂mv²

W = ¹/₂ x 110 x 0.22²

W = 2.662 J

Therefore, the work that must be done to stop the hoop is 2.662 J
