Answer: 55

Explanation: A atom consists of a nucleus  and electrons.Nucleus contain neutrons with no charge and protons with positive charge. The electrons bearing negative charge revolve around the nucleus.

An electrically neutral atom contains equal number of protons and electrons. Thus if a neutral element X contains 55 protons, it also contains 55 electrons.

If the element has 55 protons it is celcium and it also has 55 electrons. It has an atomic mass of 133 (132.9) so to get the number of neutrons you subtract the atomic mass and the number of protons.

As the speed of a particle increases, does its associated wavelenght increase or decrease
Zina [86]

The de Broglie hypothesis proposed that all particles have wave-like properties, with the wavelength being inversely proportional to the velocity of the particle.


Therefore as the velocity (speed in this question) increases, the wavelength *decreases*.

PLEASE HELP!!!! Two science questions!!!! 20 points and brainliest!!!
Angelina_Jolie [31]
<span>1. A cylinder is submerged in water as illustrated in the diagram. Which of the following statements is true?

</span><span>The pressure at D is greater than at B. This is because D is trying to get back to the surface with an amount of pressure. B has less amount of pressure.

</span><span>2. A cylinder is submerged in water as illustrated in the diagram. If the area of the top and the bottom of the cylinder is the same, which of the following statements is true?

</span><span>buoyant force = (force D - force A).

Edit: If you ever notice. When you fill a sink full of water. Put a glass upside down and try forcefully to submerge it under the water it will resist. This is because of the pressure and air. The glass is less dense then water. (Also depends on the glass)</span>
