Oxygen has Atomic number 8 so all isotopes have 8 protons and 8 electrons.

So the number of neutrons in Oxygen-18 = 18 - 8 = 10.

Option B is the correct one.

A space station in the shape of a 100 m-diameter (50m radius) wheel is spinning so as to impart a linear tangential speed of 22.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

correct option is b. 31.3 m/s

Explanation:

given data

artificial gravity a1 = 1 g

artificial gravity a2 = 2 g

diameter = 100 m

radius  r= 50 m

speed v1 = 22.1 m/s

solution

As acceleration is  ∝ v²

so we can say

\frac{a2}{a1} = \frac{v2}{v1}    .....................1

put here value

\frac{2}{1} = \frac{v2}{22.1}  

solve it

v2 = \sqrt{2 } × 22.1

v2 = 31.25 m/s

so correct option is b. 31.3 m/s

A ball is dropped from rest at point O. After falling for some time, it passes by a window of height 3.3 m and it does so in 0.2
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Speed at which the ball passes the window’s top = 10.89 m/s

Explanation:

Height of window = 3.3 m

Time took to cover window = 0.27 s

Initial velocity, u = 0m/s

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

For the top of window (position A)

                     s_A=0\times t_A+0.5\times 9.81t_A^2\\\\s_A=4.905t_A^2

For the bottom of window (position B)

                     s_B=0\times t_B+0.5\times 9.81t_B^2\\\\s_A=4.905t_B^2

\texttt{Height of window=}s_B-s_A=3.3\\\\4.905t_B^2-4.905t_A^2=3.3\\\\t_B^2-t_A^2=0.673

We also have

                 t_B-t_A=0.27

Solving

         t_B=0.27+t_A\\\\(0.27+t_A)^2-t_A^2=0.673\\\\t_A^2+0.54t_A+0.0729-t_A^2=0.673\\\\t_A=1.11s\\\\t_B=0.27+1.11=1.38s

So after 1.11 seconds ball reaches at top of window,

       We have equation of motion v = u + at

                                     v_A=0+9.81\times 1.11=10.89m/s

Speed at which the ball passes the window’s top = 10.89 m/s

An open-topped freight car with mass 24,000 kg is coasting without friction along a level track. It is raining very hard, and th
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

(a) v = 3..6 m/s

(b) The rain falling downward has been able to affect the horizontal motion of the car by reducing it's velocity from 4 m/s to 3.6 m/s.

Explanation:

from the question we have the following:

mass of the car (Mc) = 24,000 kg

initial velocity of the car (u) = 4 m/s

mass of water (Mw) = 3000 kg

final velocity of the car (v) = ?

(a) we can calculate the final momentum of the car by applying the conservation of momentum where

initial momentum = final momentum

Mc x U = (Mc + Mw) x V

24000 x 4 = (24000 + 3000) x v

96,000 = 27000v

v =3.6 m/s

(b) The rain falling downward has been able to affect the horizontal motion of the car by reducing it's velocity from 4 m/s to 3.6 m/s.

An elevator is being lowered at steadily decreasing speed by a steel cable attached to an electric motor. There is no air resist
shtirl [24]

Answer:

F = W + ma  a> 0

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

 we assume the upward direction as positive

          F - W = m a

          F = W + ma

          F = m (g + a)

In this case they indicate that the speed is less and less as it goes down, therefore the acceleration must be opposite to the speed, that is, the acceleration is upwards, consequently it is positive

               

We can see that since a> 0 the force F must have greater than the weight of the elevator
