the electron? Which particles make the greatest contribution to the mass of an atom? Which particles make the greatest contribution to the chemical properties of an atom?

True [87]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

mas of proton = 1.673 x 10^-27 kg

mass of neutron = 1.675 x 10^-27 kg

mass of electron = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

(a) the mass of proton and the mass of neutron is not exactly same.

(b) mass of proton = 1838.46 x mass of electron

mass of neutron = 1840.65 x mass of electron

(c) As proton and neutrons are more massive than the electrons, so the protons and the neutrons has the greatest contribution of mass of an atom.

(d) The greatest contribution to the chemical properties of an atom is due to the electrons.

Classify the following situations into contact and non-contact forces.
NARA [144]

Answer: Contact force

a. Applying break in a vehicle.

d. The speed of ball rolling on ground is reduced

Non contact force

b. A coconut falling from a coconut tree.

c. The planets revolving around the sun.

Explanation:

The contact force is the force which exerts when one object or entity comes in contact with other object or entity. For example, on application of break the vehicle stops, the force is applied on the breaks to stop the vehicle. The ball rolling on the ground the speed reduces so the application of force on the ground also reduces.

The non contact force is the force one object exerts on the other without coming in direct contact with the other object. The force exerted by one object on other due to gravity is a non contact force. The coconut falling on the ground and planets revolving around the sun are examples of non contact force due to gravity.

A series of pulses, each of amplitude 0.1m , is sent down a string that is attached to a post at one end. The pulses are reflect
sp2606 [1]

The net displacement at a point on the string where the pulses cross is 0.2 m.

The term "displacement" refers to a shift in an object's position. It has a magnitude and a direction, making it a vector quantity. An arrow pointing from the starting point to the finishing point serves as its symbol.

A string that is connected to a post at one end is used to transmit a sequence of pulses, each measuring 0.1 meters in amplitude.

At the post, the pulses are reflected and return along the string without losing any of their amplitude.

Now, let's say the ends are free.

There is no inversion on reflection if the end is free. The amplitude at their intersection is 2A.

Now, since A = 0.1 m

Then, 2A = 2(0.1) = 0.2 m

As a result, the net displacement at the string's intersection of two pulses is 0.2 m.

The correct option is (c).

In the article, what is the result of the conflict between the American public and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)?
user100 [1]

Food and drug administration (FDA) is used for protecting the public health in safety, security, drugs, biological products, and medicinal devices.

Explanation:

The U.S food and Drug Act  tells about the sale of misbranded or adulterated food and drugs in interstate commerce and had a foundation for the nation's first consumer protection agency.

The federal law is passed to establish the quality standards for foods, drugs and medical devices manufactured and sold in U.S.

This act has a new consumer protection against unlawful cosmetics and medical devices and enhances the government's ability to enforce the law. The main goal of FDA is to make food and drug safe for public consumption.

If the length of a building is 2 1 2 times the width and each dimension is increased by 7 ft, then the perimeter is 266 ft. Find
N76 [4]

Answer:

The original dimensions of the building is 95 ft × 38 ft.

Explanation:

Let the original length be 'l' and original width be 'w'.

Given:

Original length (l) = 2\frac{1}{2}\times original\ width

Original width = 'w'.

So, l=2\frac{1}{2}w=\frac{5}{2}w

Now, as per question:

Length and width is increased by 7 ft.

So, new length (l') = l+7=\frac{5w}{2}+7

New width (w') = w+7

New perimeter (P) = 266 ft

Perimeter is given as:

P=2(l' +w')\\\\266=2(\frac{5w}{2}+w)\\\\\frac{266}{2}=\frac{5w+2w}{2}\\\\266=7w\\\\w=\frac{266}{7}=38\ ft

Therefore, original width = 38 ft.

Original length is, l=\frac{5\times 38}{2}=\frac{190}{2}=95\ ft

Hence, the original dimensions of the building is 95 ft × 38 ft.

What's another name for a longitudinal wave?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer: Mechanical longitudinal waves are also called compressional or compression waves, because they produce compression and rarefaction when traveling through a medium, and pressure waves, because they produce increases and decreases in pressure.
