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.

Latitude, elevation, ocean currents, topography, and prevailing winds. There's probably a few others but these are the most important.

Two guitarists attempt to play the same note of wavelength 6.48 cmcm at the same time, but one of the instruments is slightly ou

k0ka [10]

The answer is λ₂ = 6.48 cm or 6.52 cm.

The out-of-tune guitar may have a wavelength between "6.48 cm" and "6.52 cm."

fb = |f2 − f1|

f₁ = 343/0.064

= 5276Hz

f₂ = 5276.9 Hz ± 17 Hz

f₂ = 5293.9 Hz or 5259.9 Hz

Now, calculating the possible wavelengths:

λ = 343/ 5259.9 or 343/ 5293.9

λ₂ = 6.48 cm or 6.52 cm

<h3>Why is beat frequency important?</h3>

When two waves with almost identical frequencies traveling in the same direction collide at a certain location, beats are produced. The opposing beneficial and harmful disruption causes the sound to alternatively be loud and weak whenever two sound waves with different frequencies reach your ear. This is referred to as beating.

The entire value of the frequency difference between the two waves is the beat frequency.

The following formula yields the beat frequency:

fb = |f2 − f1|

Consider two sizes of disk, both of mass M. One size of disk has radius R; the other has radius 4R. System A consists of two of

Harman [31]

Answer:

4 smaller disks

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of smaller and larger disks = M

Radius of smaller disk = R

Radius of larger disk = 4R

Formula for moment of inertia about cylinder axis is:

I = ½MR²

Thus;

For small disk, I_small = ½MR²

For large disk, I_large = ½M(2R)² = 2MR²

We are told that moment of inertia of System A consists of two of the larger disks. Thus;

I_A = 2 × I_large = 2 × 2MR²

I_A = 4MR²

We are also told that System B consists of one of the larger disks and a number of the smaller disks. Thus;

I_B = I_large + n(I_small)

Where n is the number of smaller disks.

I_B = 2MR² + n(½MR²)

I_B = MR²(2 + n/2)

We are told that the moment of inertia for system A equals the moment of inertia for system B. Thus;

I_A = I_B

So;

4MR² = MR²(2 + n/2)

MR² will cancel out to give;

4 = 2 + n/2

Multiply through by 2 to give;

8 = 4 + n

n = 8 - 4

n = 4

Light is incident along the normal to face AB of a glass prism of refractive index 1.54. Find αmax, the largest value the angle

marusya05 [52]

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to Snell's law.

Snell's law establishes that reflection is subject to

$n_1sin\theta_1 = n_2sin\theta_2$

Where,

$\theta =$ Angle between the normal surface at the point of contact

n = Indices of refraction for corresponding media

The total internal reflection would then be given by

$n_1 sin\theta_1 = n_2sin\theta_2$

$(1.54) sin\theta_1 = (1.33)sin(90)$

$sin\theta_1 = \frac{1.33}{1.54}$

$\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{1.33}{1.54})$

$\theta = 59.72\°$

Therefore the $\alpha_{max}$ would be equal to

$\alpha = 90\°-\theta$

$\alpha = 90-59.72$

$\alpha = 30.27\°$

Therefore the largest value of the angle α is 30.27°

When are you most aware of your motion in a moving vehicle: when it is moving steadily in a straight line or when it is accelera

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

A) Accelerating. You would not be aware of the motion if you did not look outside the car

Explanation:

Since human cannot sense the motion (unless visually), but the inertia force caused due to the acceleration of the motion. So if you are in a car with constant velocity, there's no acceleration and no inertia force, you would not be able to sense the motion at all unless you look outside.
