Why is the nucleus of an atom dense​

Physics
1 answer:
Inessa [10]2 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

The nucleus of an atom is dense because it contains more of particles in a very little space.

The nucleus is the center of an atom made up of the protons and neutrons.

Atomic nucleus is very small compared to the size of the atom.

 Density is function of mass and volume.

Mass is the amount of matter in a substance.

Volume is the space occupied by a substance.

    The more the mass the more the density.

Since protons and neutron are massive bodies occupying a small space, they make the nucleus very dense.

A certain tuning fork vibrates at a frequency of 215 Hz while each tip of its two prongs has an amplitude of 0.832 mm. (a) What
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of vibration, f = 215 Hz

Amplitude, A = 0.832 mm

(a) Let T is the period of this motion. It is given by the following relation as :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T=\dfrac{1}{215}

T=4.65\times 10^{-3}\ s

(b) Speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

It can be given by :

v=f\times \lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{215\ Hz}

\lambda=1.59\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

A satellite orbits earth with a mean altitude of 361 km. If the orbit is circular, what are the satellite's time period and spee
Advocard [28]

Answer:

v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s = 7690 m/s

T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h

Explanation:

In order for the satellite to orbit the earth, the force of gravitation on satellite must be equal to the centripetal force acting on it:

F_{gravitation}= F_{centripetal}\\\\\frac{GM_{s} M_{E}}{r^2}  = \frac{M_{s} v^2}{r}\\\\\frac{GM_{E}}{r} = v^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{E}}{r} } \\\\

where,

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

Me = Mass of Earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

r = distance between the center of Earth and Satellite = Radius of Earth + Altitude = 6.371 x 10⁶ m + 0.361 x 10⁶ m = 6.732 x 10⁶ m

v = orbital speed = ?

Therefore,

v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 x 10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(5.97 x 10^{24} kg)}{6.732 x 10^6 m} }\\\\

<u>v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s</u>

For time period satellite completes one revolution around the earth. It means that the distance covered by satellite is equal to circumference of circle at the given altitude.

So, its orbital speed can be given as:

v = \frac{Circumference of Circle at Given Altitude}{T}\\\\v =  \frac{2\pi r}{T}\\\\

where,

T = Time Period of Satellite = ?

Therefore,

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}\\\\T = \frac{(2\pi )(6.732 x 10^6 m}{7.69 x 10^3 m/s}\\\\

<u>T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h</u>

a 2.35 water bucket is swung in a full cirlce of radius 0.824 m just fast enough so that the water doesn't fall out the top mean
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

2.84 m/s

Explanation:

At the top position of the circular trajectory, the normal reaction is zero:

N = 0

So it means that the only force that is providing the centripetal force is the gravitational force (the weight of the bucket). Therefore we have:

mg = m \frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the water bucket

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the bucket

r = 0.824 m is the radius of the circle

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{(9.8 m/s^2)(0.824 m)}=2.84 m/s

A horizontal wire is hung from the ceiling of a room by two massless strings. The wire has a length of 0.11 m and a mass of 0.01
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnetic force acting horizontally will deflect the wire by angle φ from the vertical

Let T be the tension

T cosφ = mg

Tsinφ = Magnetic force

Tsinφ = BiL  , where B is magnetic field , i is current and L is length of wire

Dividing

Tanφ = BiL / mg

= .055 x 29 x .11 / .010 x 9.8

= 1.79

φ = 61° .

Tension T = mg / cosφ

= .01 x 9.8 / cos61

= .2 N .
