Which does not describe the relationship between the nucleus and the electron cloud of an atom?

Choices 'a', 'c', and 'd' are true.

In choice 'b', I'm not sure what it means when it says that masses
are 'balanced'. To me, masses are only balanced when they're on
a see-saw, or on opposite ends of a rope that goes over a pulley.

Maybe the statement means that the mass of the nucleus and the
mass of the electron cloud are equal. This is way false. It takes
more than 1,800 electrons to make the mass of ONE proton or
neutron, and the most complex atom in nature only has 92 electrons
in it. So there's no way that the masses of the nucleus and the electrons
in one atom could ever be anywhere near equal.

The sun will probably end up as a white dwarf. How will it be different then from what it is today

just olya [345]

Answer:

The differences that will be observed are;

1) The Sun will become faint and will no longer be yellow but rather appear white and will no longer be visible (become invisible) by unassisted vision as we can see the Sun today

2) The size of the Sun will shrink to a size comparable to the size of the Earth

3) The Sun will cool down and will no longer radiate as much heat

4) The nuclear reactions that generate energy on the Sun's will seize and the and the heat from the Sun will be from residual thermal energy

5) The core, which is the hottest part of the Sun will no longer be hydrogen but carbon and oxygen

An elevator is moving down with an acceleration of 3.36 m/s2.

Answer : 413.44N

Here it is given that an elevator is moving down with an acceleration of 3.36 m/s² . And we are interested in finding out the apparent weight of a 64.2 kg man . For the diagram refer to the attachment .

From the elevator's frame ( non inertial frame of reference) , we would have to think of a pseudo force.
The direction of this force is opposite to the direction of acceleration the frame and its magnitude is equal to the product of mass of the concerned body with the acceleration of the frame .
When a elevator accelerates down , the weight recorded is less than the actual weight .

From the Free body diagram ,

$\sf\longrightarrow Weight = mg - ma \\$
