How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 36 and its mass number is 74?
kari74 [83]
The atomic number Z of an element is the number of protons it contains (and in an atom it is equal to the number of electrons). The mass number M is close to the mass of one mol of the substance but it is defined as the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the atom; there, the main mass of the atom is contained. Hence, N=M-Z=74-36=38(since M counts both protons and neutrons while Z only protons). Thus, it has 38 neutrons.

A sample contains 20 kg of radioactive material. The decay constant of the material is 0.179 per second. If the amount of time t
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

N0 = 20kg (original substance)

decay constant λ = 0.179/sec

time t = 300s

We are to find N(t)

Using the formula;

n(t) = N0e^-λt

Substitute the given values

N(t) = 20e^-(0.179)(300)

N(t) = 20e^(-53.7)

N(t) = 20(4.7885)

N(t) =143.055

To know how much of the original material that is active, we will find N(t)/N0 = 143.055/20 = 7.152

About 7 times the original material is still radioactive

In certain ranges of a piano keyboard, more than one string is tuned to the same note to provide extra loudness. For example, th
diamong [38]

Answer:

3.77 Hz

Explanation:

The beat frequency that is heard can be calculated using the following equation:

f_{b} = f_{1} - f_{2}

<u>Where:</u>

f₁ = 110 Hz

f_{2} = \frac{f_{1}}{\sqrt{\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}}}}

<u>With:</u>

<em>T₁ = 594 N        </em>

<em>T₂ = 554 N </em>

f_{2} = \frac{f_{1}}{\sqrt{\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}}}} = \frac{110 Hz}{\sqrt{\frac{594 N}{554 N}}} = 106.23 Hz

Hence, the beat frequency is:        

f_{b} = f_{1} - f_{2} = 110 Hz - 106.23 Hz = 3.77 Hz      

Therefore, the beat frequency that is heard when the hammer strikes the two strings simultaneously is 3.77 Hz.

I hope it helps you!
