Explain why the nucleus is very dense BRAINLIEST

Physics

Size and Mass of the Nucleus
Electrons have virtually no mass, but protons and neutrons have a lot of mass for their size. As a result, the nucleus has virtually all the mass of an atom. Given its great mass and tiny size, the nucleus is very dense.

allsm [11]

Answer:

41.2°

Explanation:

Total internal reflection is the reflection of the incident ray at the interface between two media in which one of the media has a lower refractive index than the other. It occurs when the angle of incidence in the denser medium exceeds the critical angle.

The critical angle is the angle of incidence in the denser medium when the angle of incidence in the less dense medium is 90°.

Since

n= 1/sin C

C= sin^-(1/n)

C= sin^-(1/1.33)

C= 48.8°

Hence angle of incidence= 90-48.8 = 41.2°

Which formula correctly expresses the property density?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Option A

D = m/v

Explanation:

Density is defined as mass per unit volume of an object. Therefore, D=m/v where m is the mass of the object and v is the volume

Therefore, option A is the right option

Does water transmit light
liq [111]
While the answer is that it does, it transmits light VERY poorly. Most of the light bounces off it and the rest is refracted into the ocean. This is why you can't see much that is far away from you in the ocean unlike if you're just on land.

Which object has more gravitational potential energy? Use PE = m × g × h, where g = 9.8 meters/second2.
Andrew [12]
Gravitational potential energy can be calculated using the formula <span>PE = m × g × h, where g is the gravitational acceleration and is constant hence the energy is dependent directly to mass and the height of the object. Hence more PE is registered when the object is heavier and/or at greater initial height. </span>
