Answer:

B) Electrons and protons  

Explanation:

Each proton has a positive charge, and each electron has a negative charge. If the atom is electrically neutral, there must be the same number of electrons and protons.

A) and C) are wrong. Neutrons have no charge, so they can't counteract that of the protons or the electrons.

D) is wrong. The atomic number is the number of protons, and the mass number is the number of protons plus neutrons. The neutrons can't  counteract the charge of the protons,

Before scientists come up with a scientific question, what do they have to do first?
Mademuasel [1]
Scientist would check what other scientists have said before they come up with their own scientific question. That way they can record the results from the others and compare them with their own findings when they conduct their own experiments and record the findings.

A student throws a set of keys vertically upward to her sorority sister, who is in a window 3.50 m above. The second student cat
Mkey [24]

Answer:

a) 8.58 m/s upward

b) -2.211 m/s downward

Explanation:

Let gravitational acceleration g = -9.81m/s2. This is negative because it deceleration the upward motion of the key.

(a)We have the following equation of motion

s = v_0t + gt^2/2

where v_0 is the initial upward velocity of the keys, t = 1.1s is the time it takes for the keys to travel a distance of s = 3.5 m

3.5 = v_01.1 - 9.81*1.1^2/2

3.5 = 1.1v_0 - 5.94

1.1v_0 = 3.5 + 5.94 = 9.44

v_0 = 9.44 / 1.1 = 8.58 m/s

So the keys were thrown initially upward with a speed of 8.58 m/s

(b) If the initial velocity of the key is 8.58 m/s and it is subjected to a deceleration of 9.81m/s2 for 1.1s then the velocity right at the 1.1s instant is

v = v_0 + gt = 8.58 - 9.81*1.1 = -2.211 m/s

So they keys would have a downward speed of 2.211 m/s

Why do we use days and hours instead of hours?<br>​
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

becuase counting by hours is more complicated. then days, to make it easier to understand instead of saying I will see you in 48 hours... its easier to understand and think to say see you in 2 days!

Explanation:

hope this helps. also we did not determine time. people from history did so... wasnt really my choice or anyones!
