The mass number is calculated by adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons.

Therefore, you can find the number of neutrons by subtracting the number of protons from the mass number. The number of protons is equal to the atomic number, therefore you just have to do the mass number - atomic number to find the number of neutrons.

82 - 26 = 56 neutrons.

If a coin is dropped at a relatively low altitude, it's acceleration remains constant. However, if the coin is dropped at a very high altitude, air resistance will have a significant effect. The initial acceleration of the coin will be the greatest. As it falls down, air resistance will counteract the weight of the coin. So, the acceleration will decrease. Although the acceleration decreases, the coin still accelerates, that is why it falls faster. When the air resistance fully counters the weight of the coin, the acceleration will become zero and the coin will fall at a constant speed (terminal velocity). So, the answer should be, The acceleration decreases until it reaches 0. The closest answer is.
a. The acceleration decreases.

Explanation:

given,                          

radius of loop = 12.1 m                              

to find the minimum speed transverse by the rider to not to fall out upside down                                                                

centripetal force = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

gravitational force  = m g

computing both the equation]

mg = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v = \sqrt{rg}

v = \sqrt{12.1 \times 9.8}

v = \sqrt{118.58}

v = 10.89\ m/s
