Atoms from two different elements may have the same number of neutrons, but never the same number of protons

Nesterboy [21]3 years ago

Atoms of an element with the same mass number make up an isotope of the element. Different isotopes of the same element cannot have the same mass number, but isotopes of different elements often do have the same mass number, e.g., carbon-14 (6 protons and 8 neutrons) and nitrogen-14 (7 protons and 7 neutrons).

How does a water well affect ground water?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Pumping a well lowers the water level around the well to form a cone of depression in the water table. If the cone of depression extends to other nearby wells, the water level in those wells will be lowered. The cone develops in both shallow water-table and deeper confined-aquifer systems.

Which accurately describes the behavior of sound and light in the vacuum of space?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
<span>
A vacuum doesn't contain a medium. Light, which is an electromagnetic
wave and doesn't require a medium, will travel there. Sound, which is a
mechanical wave and requires a medium, will not travel there.</span>

(You can see the light of the sun and other stars, which travels to us through
space.  Astronauts can't hear the sound of each others' voices when they're
standing together on the moon because there's no medium between them,
so they have to use radio even to go only a few feet.)
