The weight of the mass added to the hanger is equal to the extra force on the gas, but what area should we use to calculate the
kari74 [83]

Answer: according to the Avagadro's law, volume is directly propotional to no of moles: VXn

according to the Charles law, volume is directly propotional to  temperatue: VXT

according to the Boyle's law, volume is inversely propotional to P: VX1/P

when we combine them we get:

VXnT1/P

V=knT/P

k= R(universal gas constant)

V=RnT/P

PV=nRT

The speed of an object undergoing constant acceleration increased from 8.0 meters per second to 16.0 meters per second in 10. Se
saw5 [17]

v₀ = initial speed of the object = 8 meter/second

v = final speed of the object = 16 meter/second

t = time taken to increase the speed = 10 seconds

d = distance traveled by the object in the given time duration = ?

using the kinematics equation

d = (v + v₀) t/2

inserting the above values in the above equation

d = (16 + 8) (10)/2

d = 120 meter

( Image is 6 C carbon with the numbers 12.011 under it ) According to the image, the atomic mass of carbon is 12.011. How is the
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

B. By adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons

Explanation:

The atomic mass is determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. An atom is made up of three fundamental particles: Electrons, Protons and Neutrons.

The protons and neutrons occupy a central region in an atom known as the nucleus. The nucleus is positively charged and mass concentrated.

If we compare the relative masses of the subatomic particles, the masses of protons and neutrons would be 1 and that of an electron would be 1/1840. This shows that the mass of electrons are negligible.

In order to ascertain atomic mass, we therefore add the number of protons and neutrons together. This is how we arrive at 12.011 as the value of the atomic mass of C and for other elements.

The atomic mass is also known as the mass number.
