The atomic number tells you the number of protons in an atom. This value never changes because the number of protons in the nucleus always remains constant. The mass number tells you the number of protons and neutrons (or nucleons) together: protons + neutrons = mass number. Since the number of neutrons in the nucleus varies, you can have different amounts of neutrons in the same type of atom. These varied types are called isotopes.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
Explained below
Explanation:
When we eat food, our body gets chemical energy from it. Now, this chemical energy from the food is changed into some different energy forms that is useful to it. They include:
-Chemical to mechanical energy to aid in movement of muscles
- chemical to thermal energy to aid in regulating the body temperature.
- chemical to electrical energy to aid the brain in thinking.
Thus is similar to how a machine converts energy because machines also generate energy after being powered and convert to other forms of energy. For example, an alarm clock converts electrical energy to sound energy, hair dryer converts electrical energy to thermal/heat energy.
