How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 48 and its mass number is 167?

1 answer:

8 0

If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom. Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.

If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are

(167 - 48) = 119 neutrons

in each nucleus.

Answer:

$m = 180 \ bright \ fringes$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength is $\lambda = 510 \ nm = 510 *10^{-9} \ m$

The length of the of the plate is $l = 24.3 \ cm = 0.243 \ m$

The radius of the wire is $r= 0.023 \ mm = 2.3 *10^{-5} \ m$

Generally the diameter of the wire which is the distance between the glass plates is mathematically represented as

$d = 2 * r$

=> $d = 2 * 2.3 *10^{-5}$

=> $d = 4.6 *10^{-5} \ m$

Generally the condition for constructive interference is mathematically represented as

$2 *d = m \lambda$

=> $m = \frac{2d}{\lambda}$

=> $m = \frac{2 * (4.6* 10^{-5})}{ 510 *10^{-9} }$

=> $m = 180 \ bright \ fringes$

Answer: a. m = 7.7 kg

b. V = 435.52 in³

c. m = 1927 kg

d. V = 335.37 cm³

e. m = 3 kg

Explanation: <u>Density</u> is the ratio of mass per volume, i.e., it's the measure of an object's compactness. Its representation is the greek letter ρ.

The formula for density is

$\rho=\frac{m}{V}$

Density's unit in SI is kg/m³, but it can assume lots of other units.

Some unit transformations necessary for the resolution of the question:

1 L = 1 dm³ = 1000 cm³

1 in³ = 16.3871 cm³

1 g = 0.001 kg

a. V = 1.34 L = 1340 cm³

$\rho=\frac{m}{V}$

$m=\rho.V$

m = 5.75 * 1340

m = 7705 g => 7.705 kg

Mass of object 1 with volume 1.34L is 7.7 kg.

b. A cube's volume is calculated as V = side³

V = 7.58³

V = 435.52 in³

Volume of object 2 is 435.52 in³.

c. Using 1 in³ = 16.3871 cm³ to change units:

V = 435.52 * 16.3871

V = 713689.4 cm³

Then, mass will be

$m=\rho.V$

m = 2.7 * 713689.4

m = 1926961.4 g => 1927 kg

Mass of object 2 is 1927 kg.

d. Volume of a sphere is calculated as $V=\frac{4}{3}.\pi.r^{3}$

Diameter is twice the radius, then r = 4.31 cm.

Volume is

$V=\frac{4}{3}.\pi.(4.31)^{3}$

V = 335.37 cm³

Volume of object 3 is 335.37 cm³.

e. $m=\rho.V$

m = 8.96 * 335.37

m = 3004.91 g => 3 kg

Mass of object 3 is 3 kg.

With a 12 V battery, what is the voltage drop across each resistor?

anzhelika [568]

Call me delusional, but I can't shake the weird hunch that there's supposed to be
a drawing to go along with this question, showing the values of the resistors and
exactly how they're connected to the battery.

In a series circuit, the voltage divides across the resistors in proportion to
their resistances. If two resistors in series are the only things connected to
your battery, then the voltage across each resistor is . . .

(12 volts) x (the resistance of that one resistor) / (the sum of both resistors) .

Harrison wanted to find out what soil works best for growing roses. He grew them in potting soil, clay, sand, and soil he found

zepelin [54]

Answer:

This question is asking to identify the following variables:

Independent variable (IV): TYPE OF SOIL

Dependent variable (DV): HEIGHT AND NUMBER OF LEAVES

Control group: None in this experiment

Constant: SAME ROSE PLANT, SAME TIME INTERVAL (1 WEEK)

Explanation:

Independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is manipulated or changed by the experimenter in order to effect a measurable outcome. In this case, the independent variable is the TYPE OF SOIL used.

Dependent variable is the measurable variable that responds to changes made to the independent variable. In this experiment, the dependent variable is the HEIGHT AND NUMBER OF LEAVES of each rose.

Constants or control variable is the variable that is kept unchanged or constant for all groups throughout the experiment. In this experiment, the constants are SAME ROSE PLANT, SAME TIME INTERVAL (1 WEEK).

Control group are the groups that does not receive the experimental treatment. In this case, all the groups received the experimental treatment (different soil types). Hence, there is no control
