How to calculate the number of protons and neutrons in elements

1 answer:

Nuetrik [128]2 years ago

The atomic number is the number of protons. So, you can subtract the atomic number from the mass number to find the number of neutrons.
I hope this helps! :)

If an object accelerates from rest, what will its velocity be after 1.3 s if it has a constant acceleration of 9.1 m/s^2?

HACTEHA [7]

$\text{Given that,}\\\\\text{Initial velocity,} ~v_0 = 0~ \text{m~s}^{-1}\\\\\text{Time, t = 1.3~sec}\\\\\text{Acceleration, a = 9.1 m s}^{-2}\\\\\\\\\text{Velocity,}\\\\v = v_0 +at\\\\\implies v = 0 + 9.1 \times 1.3 = 11.83~~ \text{m~s}^{-1}$

A particle is moving with (SHM) of period 8.0s and amplitude5.0m

nadezda [96]

Answer:

$velocity(x)=15\,\frac{\pi}{4}\,cos(\frac{\pi}{4}x)$

Max speed = $\frac{15\, \pi}{4} \,\, \frac{m}{s}$

Max acceleration = $\frac{15\,\pi^2}{16} \,\,\frac{m}{s^2}$

Explanation:

Given the description of period and amplitude, the SHM could be described by:

$f(x)=5\,sin(\frac{\pi}{4}x)$

and its angular velocity can be calculated doing the derivative:

$f(x)=5\, \,sin(\frac{\pi}{4}x)\\f'(x)=5\,\frac{\pi}{4}\,cos(\frac{\pi}{4}x)$

And therefore, the tangential velocity is calculated by multiplying this expression times the radius of the movement (3 m):

$velocity(x)=15\,\frac{\pi}{4}\,cos(\frac{\pi}{4}x)$ and is given in m/s.

Then the maximum speed is obtained when the cosine function becomes "1", and that gives:

Max speed = $\frac{15\, \pi}{4} \,\, \frac{m}{s}$

The acceleration is found from the derivative of the velocity expression, and therefore given by:

$acceleraton(x)=-15\,\frac{\pi^2}{16}\,sin(\frac{\pi}{4}x)$

and the maximum of the function will be obtained when the sine expression becomes "-1", which will render:

Max acceleration = $\frac{15\,\pi^2}{16} \,\,\frac{m}{s^2}$

A ray of light has a wavelength of

MArishka [77]

Answer:

The wavelength in vacuum is equal to 428.8 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

The wavelength of light, $\lambda=284\ nm$

The refractive index of glass, n = 1.51

We need to find the wavelength in vacuum. The relation between wavelength and refractive index is given by :

$n=\dfrac{\lambda_v}{\lambda}\\\\\lambda_v=n\times \lambda\\\\\lambda_v=1.51\times 284\\\\\lambda_v=428.8\ nm$

So, the wavelength in vacuum is equal to 428.8 nm.
