How do scientists determine the number of neutrons in an isotope of an atom? A. They find the number of protons. B. They divide
Aleks04 [339]

'D' would do the job ... When you subtract the protons from the mass,
what you have left is neutrons.  (The electrons can be ignored.  It takes
around 1840 electrons ! to add the mass of a single proton or neutron !)

I don't know it for a fact, but I'd be surprised if the process is really that
simple.  I mean, it starts out with knowing the atomic mass, and then
knowing the number of protons in the nucleus.  Each of those is a
whole complex problem in itself.

Explain why humans get an electric shock when the touch live wire ? ​
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

look it up

Explanation:

An electrical shock is received when electrical current passes through the body. ... Whenever two wires are at different voltages, current will pass between them if they are connected. Your body can connect the wires if you touch both of them at the same time. Current will pass through your body.

A 15.7 kg block is dragged over a rough, horizontal surface by a constant force of 83.1 N
Kay [80]

Answer:

The work done by the 83.1 N force is 4687.5 J.

The magnitude of the work done by the  force of friction is 1187.5 J.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the block, m=15.7 kg

Force acting on it, F=83.1 N

Angle of application of force, \theta = 25.7°

Displacement of the block, d=62.6 m

Coefficient of friction, \mu =0.161

Acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8 m/s²

Work done by a force is given as:

Work,W=F\times d\times \cos\theta

So, work done by the constant force is given as:

W_{force}=83.1\times 62.6\times \cos(25.7)\\W_{force}=4687.5\textrm{ J}

Now, in order to find work done by friction, we need to evaluate friction.

For the vertical direction, the net force is zero as there is no vertical motion.

Therefore,

N + F\sin\theta = mg\\ N = mg-F\sin\theta

Frictional force is given as:

f=\mu N=\mu (mg-F \sin \theta)=0.161\times ((15.7\times 9.8)-(83.1\times \sin(25.7))=18.97\textrm{ N}

Now, friction acts in the direction opposite to the displacement. Thus, angle between frictional force and displacement is 180°.

Therefore, work done by friction is:

W_{fric}=f\times d\times \cos\theta_f\\W_{fric}=12.72\times 62.6\times \cos(-180)\\W_{fric}=18.97\times 62.6\times -1\\W_{fric}=-1187.5\textrm{ J}

Negative sign indicates that frictional force is acting opposite to motion.

So, the magnitude of the work done by the  force of friction is 1187.5 J.
