Answer:

in the nucleus

Explanation:

The majority of mass of an atom consists in the nucleus which consists of protons and neutrons. The mass of a proton is 1.6726219 × 10⁻²⁷ kilograms and the mass of neutron is 1.674929 x 10⁻²⁷ kg while the mass of an electron is 9.109390 x 10⁻³¹ kg.

As it can be seen that the masses of both the protons and neutrons are higher than that of an electron the most mass lies in the nucleus.

A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant acceleration 44.1m/s^2 . The acce
ollegr [7]
The acceleration and distance is related to the following expression:
y=v0*t + a*t^2/2 ; v0=0 
y=44.1*100/2 = 2205m 
hence, the speed will be 
v=0 + a*t = 441m/s 
from that height it will just be subjected to the gravitational acceleration 
0=v_acc^2 -2g*y_free 
y_free = v_acc^2/2g = 9922.5m 
<span>y_max = y_acc+y_free = 441+9922.5 =10363.5m</span>

Weight is used most often for measuring____________________ whereas volume is used most often for measuring_____________________
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Weight is used most often for measuring solid whereas volume is used most often for measuring liquid.

Explanation:

Weight is used most often for measuring solid, because solids have definite shape.  Weight is usually expressed in Newton (N) because it is a function of mass and gravity. ( weight = mass x gravity).

Whereas  volume is used most often for measuring liquid, usually expressed in cubic meter (m³) because liquids have no definite shape, rather they occupy the volume of their container.

15.One girl was involved in a bus crash. She told the police that she was seated in the last line of seats and that when the bus
Alona [7]

Answer: It is not likely.

Explanation:

When the bus is moving forward, all the objects inside of it also are moving forward.

Now, as the objects inside the buss are not fixed to the bus, if the bus suddenly stops the objects inside of it will keep moving forward, because of the conservation of the momentum, defined as the quantity of motion (Similar to when you are in a car and it suddenly stops, you can feel the forward impulse).

Then is not likely that, in a case where the bus stops suddenly, an object inside the bus flies backward in opposite direction to the previous movement of the bus.

We have two solenoids: solenoid 2 has twice the diameter, half the length, and twice as many turns as solenoid 1. The current in
leva [86]

Answer:

the field at the center of solenoid 2 is 12 times the field at the center of solenoid 1.

Explanation:

Recall that the field inside a solenoid of length L, N turns, and a circulating current I, is given by the formula:

B=\mu_0\, \frac{N}{L} I

Then, if we assign the subindex "1" to the quantities that define the magnetic field (B_1) inside solenoid 1, we have:

B_1=\mu_0\, \frac{N_1}{L_1} I_1

notice that there is no dependence on the diameter of the solenoid for this formula.

Now, if we write a similar formula for solenoid 2, given that it has :

1) half the length of solenoid 1 . Then L_2=L_1/2

2) twice as many turns as solenoid 1. Then N_2=2\,N_1

3) three times the current of solenoid 1. Then I_2=3\,I_1

we obtain:

B_2=\mu_0\, \frac{N_2}{L_2} I_2\\B_2=\mu_0\, \frac{2\,N_1}{L_1/2} 3\,I_1\\B_2=\mu_0\, 12\,\frac{N_1}{L_1} I_1\\B_2=12\,B_1
