IM SOO CONFUSED PLS HELP!! The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by ____ Atomic Mass unit

nevsk [136]

Answer:

option a.

Explanation:

We can think of an atom as a nucleus (where the protons and neutrons are) and some electrons orbiting it.

We also know that the mass of an electron is a lot smaller than the mass of a proton or the mass of an electron.

So, if all the protons and electrons of an atom are in the nucleus, we know that most of the mass of an atom is in the nucleus of that atom.

Then we define the mass number, which is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. Such that the mass of a proton (or a neutron) is almost equal to 1u

Then if we define A as the total number of protons and neutrons, and each one of these weights about 1u

(where u = atomic mass unit)

Then the weight of the nucleus is about A times 1u, or:

A*1u = A atomic mass units.

Then the correct option is:

The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by __1__ Atomic Mass unit.

option a.

The radius of curvature of both sides of a converging lens is 18 cm. One side of the lens is coated withsilver so that the inner

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

n = 1.4

Explanation:

Given,

R1 = 18 cm, R2 = -18 cm

From lens makers formula

1/f = (n - 1)(1/18 + 1/18) = (n-1)/9

f = 9/(n-1)

Power, P = 1/f ( in m) = (n-1)/0.09

Now, this lens is in with conjunction with a concave mirror which then can be thought of as to be in conjunction with another thin lens

Power of concave mirror = P' = 1/f ( in m) = 2/R = 2/0.18 = 1/0.09

Net power of the combination = 2P + P' = 2(n-1)/0.09 + 1/0.09 = 1/0.05

n = 1.4

Before you conduct your experiment, you need to form a hypothesis. A hypothesis is a prediction of what you think will happen in

While driving north at 25 m/s during a rainstorm you notice that the rain makes an angle of 38° with the vertical. While driving

Natali [406]

Answer: $21.33^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Given

velocity of driver $v_1$ =25 m/s w.r.t ground towards north

driver observes that rain is making an angle of $38^{\circ}$ with vertical

While returning $v_2$ =25 m/s w.r.t. ground towards south

suppose $u_1$ =velocity of rain drop relative car while car is going towards north

$u_2$ =velocity of rain drop relative car while car is going towards south

z=vector sum of $u_1 & v_1$

Now from graph

$\tan 38=\frac{v_1+v_2}{u_2}$

$u_2=\frac{25+25}{\tan 38}=64 m/s$

$z=\vec{u_2}+\vec{v_2}$

therefore magnitude of z is given by

$|z|=\sqrt{u_2^2+v_2^2}$

$|z|=\sqrt{64^2+25^2}$

$|z|=68.70 m/s$

$\tan A=\frac{v_2}{u_2}$

$\tan A=\frac{25}{64}=0.3906$

$A=21.33^{\circ}$

Thus rain drops make an angle of $21.33^{\circ}$ w.r.t to ground
