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.

In a computer-based experiment to study diffraction, the width of the central diffraction peak is 15.20 mm. The wavelength of th
pogonyaev

Answer:

a = 5.7 \times 10^{-5} m

Explanation:

As we know that position of first minimum on the either side of central maximum is given as

a sin\theta = \lambda

\theta =sin^{-1} \frac{\lambda}{a}

so the width of the central maximum is given as

W = L (2\theta)

so we have

15.20 \times 10^{-3} = 0.68 \times 2(sin^{-1} \frac{\lambda}{a})

so we have

0.011 = sin^{-1} \frac{\lambda}{a}

0.011 = \frac{638 nm}{a}

a = 5.7 \times 10^{-5} m

Explain the Kinetic Theory of Matter<br> and use an example from everyday life
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The Kinetic Theory of Matter or KTM as i will call it, states that every object is made of many many small particles (humans are made of sextillions of atoms), and that they are constantly moving and bumping each other. The degree to which the particles move is determined by the amount of energy they have and their relationship to other particles.

An example would be Brownian Motion- the random movement of dust particles because of collisions with "air" molecules and how gases behave i.e. Boyle's, Charles', and Gay-Lussac's Laws.

How do geologists construct the geologic column?​
Luda [366]

Answer:

They do this by joining pieces of different Rock sequences together from different places in the whole world.

Explanation:

Geologic columns are basically an arrangement of rock layers whereby the newest rocks are at the top while the oldest rocks will be at the bottom. Thus, it is like a timescale that's used to find the age of rock formation on the earth around the world.
