B is false.

not all carbon atoms have 6 neutrons. Carbon 13 for example has 7 neutrons

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.

Answer:

 f = 7.9487 10¹³ Hz

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was correctly explained by Einstein assuming that the radiation is composed of photons, which behave like particles.

           hf = K + Ф

It indicates the frequency and the kinetic energy, let's look for the work function

          Ф = hf - K

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

          K = 0.332 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 eV) = 0.5312 10⁻⁻¹⁹ J

let's calculate

          Ф = 6.63 10⁻⁻³⁴  6.64 10¹¹ - 0.5312 10⁻¹⁹

          Ф = 4.40 10⁻²² - 0.5312 10⁻¹⁹

          Ф = 5.27 10⁻²⁰ J

for the minimum frequency that produces photoelectrons, the kinetic energy is zero

           hf = Ф  

           f = Ф / h

           f = 5.27 10⁻²⁰ / 6.63 10⁻³⁴

           f = 7.9487 10¹³ Hz

1. 3 main components of a circuit
siniylev [52]
Voltage, resistance and current are the three components that must be present for a circuit to exist. A circuit will not be able to function without these three components. Voltage is the main electrical source that is present in a circuit. :)

How much force is needed to stretch a spring 1. 2 m if the spring constant is 8. 5 N/m? 7. 1 N 7. 3 N 9. 7 N 10. 2 N.
statuscvo [17]

The amount of force required to stretch or compress the spring is known as the spring force. Its unit is Newton(N). Force is needed to stretch spring is 10.2 N.

<h3>What is spring force?</h3>

The force required to extend or compress a spring by some distance scales linearly with respect to that distance is known as the spring force. Its formula is

F = kx

The given data in the problem is;

F is the spring force =?

K is the spring constant= 8.5 N/m

x is the length by which spring got stretched = 1.2m

\rm F_S=Kx \\\\ \rm F_S=8.5 \times 1.2 \\\\ \rm F_S=10.2 N

Hence the force is needed to stretch the spring is 10.2 N.

To learn more about the spring force refer to the link;

A 30-cm-diameter, 1.2 kg solid turntable rotates on a 1.2-cm-diameter, 450 g shaft at a constant 33 rpm. When you hit the stop s
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

frictional force = 0.52 N

Explanation:

diameter of turn table (D1) = 30 cm = 0.3 m

mass of turn table (M1) = 1.2 kg

diameter of shaft (D2) = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m

mass of shaft (M2) = 450 g = 0.45 kg

time (t) = 15 seconds

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

radius of turn table (R1) = 0.3 / 2 = 0.15 m

radius of shaft (R2) = 0.012 / 2 = 0.006 m

total moment of inertia (I) = moment of inertia of turn table + moment of inertia of shaft

I = 0.5(M1)(R1)^{2} + O.5 (M2)(R2)^{2}

I =  0.5(1.2)(0.15)^{2} + O.5 (0.45)(0.006)^{2}

I = 0.0135 + 0.0000081 = 0.0135081

ω₁ = 33 rpm = 33 x \frac{2π}{60} = 3.5 rad/s

α = -ω₁/t = -3.5 / 15 = -0.23 rad/s^{2}

torque = I x α

torque = 0.0135081 x (-0.23) = - 0.00311 N.m

torque = frictional force x R2

- 0.00311 = frictional force x 0.006

frictional force = 0.52 N
