Answer:

Mass number of carbon is 12.

Explanation:

Carbon atom is defined as 6 atoms in a nucleus, and the mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.  

Before any neutrons are added to the carbon atom, its mass number is 6;<em> after 6 neutrons are added, the total number of protons and neutrons is now 12—the mass number becomes 12.</em>

Hello. I am confused on how to find this answer. I know it isn’t negative
sweet [91]

Answer: Positive

Explanation:

Are you familiar with differential calculus? In a plot of position vs. time, the velocity at any given moment is the derivative at that point. A derivative is just the slope. For this plot, the slope is x/t.

Looking at t = 1s, the slope is 1/1. This means the velocity is a positive 1m/s at time equal to 1 second

If a shuttle is orbiting a planet at a distance of 40 miles from the center of the planet, and is traveling at a rate of 500 mil
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Time taken, t = 30.15 minutes

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance from the center of planet, r = 40 miles

Speed of the shuttle, v = 500 miles per hour

Let t is the time taken by it to complete  one full orbit. The displacement of the shuttle is,

d=2\pi r

d=2\pi \times 40

d = 251.32 miles

Now time can be calculated using the expression for the velocity as :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{251.32\ miles}{500\ miles\ per\ hour}

t = 0.50264 hours

or

t = 30.15 minutes

So, the shuttle will take 30.15 minutes to complete one full orbit. Hence, this is the required solution.
