What part of the atom determines physical properties?

Physics
1 answer:
cluponka [151]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Physical properties are the properties which can be observed without any change in chemical composition of a substance. For example, color, odor, mass, density etc are all physical properties.

An atom contains protons, neutrons and  electrons. The nucleus of atom contains protons and neutrons. The mass of an electron is negligible as compared to protons.

Therefore, mass of an atom is due to the number of protons.

Hence, we can conclude that protons of the atom determines physical properties.

What role did gravity play in the formation of the planets?
joja [24]
Your answer would be D.
If an object has mass, it has gravity, and the more mass it has, the stronger its gravity. During the formation of planets, essentially, various matter and elements pulled and fused together (because of the gravity), forming planetesimals.

Answer:

Find answers below.

Explanation:

1. Radiant: the energy of light.

2. Light: makes it possible to see things.

3. Sun: a source of light. This source of light is referred to as solar energy and it's renewable source of energy.

4. Crest: top of wave. Thus, it's typically the highest part of an electromagnetic wave.

5. Trough: bottom of wave. Thus, it's typically the lowest part of an electromagnetic wave.

6. Wavelength: distance from one point on one wave to the same point on the next wave.

7. Infrared light: it has longer wavelengths than visible light.

8. X-rays: shorter wavelengths than visible light.

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

An electromagnetic spectrum refers to a range of frequency and wavelength that an electromagnetic wave is distributed or extends. The electromagnetic spectrum comprises of gamma rays, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, radio waves, and infrared radiation.

The ratio of carbon-14 to nitrogen-14 is an artifact is 1:3. Given that half-life of carbon-14 is 5730years, how old is the arti
dusya [7]

Answer:

9155 years old

Explanation:

We use the following expression for the decay of a substance:

N = N_0\,\,e^{-k*t}

So we first estimate the value of k knowing that the half-life of the C14 is 5730 years:

N = N_0\,\,e^{-k*t}\\N_0/2=N_0\,\,e^{-k*5730}\\1/2 = e^{-k*5730}\\ln(1/2)=-k*5730\\k= 0.00012

so, now we can estimate the age of the artifact by solving for"t" in the equation:

1/3=e^{-0.00012*t}\\ln(1/3)= -0.00012*t\\t=9155. 102

which we can round to 9155 years old.

Since the two waves have equal amplitudes, if the crest of one wave
meets the trough of the other one, they'll add to produce a level of zero

A girl drops a stone from the top a tower 45m tall. At the same time, a boy standing at the base of the tower, projects another
Advocard [28]

Answer:

(i) The stones meet at 1.8 second

(ii) The point at which the stones meet, is 28.8 m above the base of the building and 16.2 m below the top of the building.

Explanation:

(i)

First we consider the stone dropped by the girl. We have data:

Vi = Initial Velocity of Stone = 0 m/s   (Since the stone was initially at rest)

t = Time Period

g = 10 m/s²

s₁ = Distance Covered by Stone

Using 2nd equation of motion, we get:

s₁ = Vi t + (0.5)gt²

s₁ = (0)(t) + (0.5)(10)t²

s₁ = 5t²   ----- equation (1)

Now, we consider the stone throne vertically upward by the boy. We have data:

Vi = Initial Velocity of Stone = 25 m/s

t = Time Period

g = - 10 m/s²   (negative sign due to upward motion)

s₂ = Distance Covered by Stone

Using 2nd equation of motion, we get:

s₂ = Vi t + (0.5)gt²

s₂ = (25)(t) + (0.5)(-10)t²

s₂ = 25t - 5t²   ----- equation (2)

At, the point where both the stones meet, the sum of distances covered by both stones must be equal to the height of building (i.e 45 m).

s₁ + s₂ = 45

using values from equation (1) and equation (2)

5t² + 25t - 5t² = 45

25t = 45

t = 45/25

<u>t =  1.8 sec</u>

(ii)

using this value of of t in equation (2)

s₂ = (25)(1.8) - (5)(1.8)²

<u>s₂ = 28.8 m</u>

using this value of of t in equation (1)

s₁ = (5)(1.8)²

<u>s₁ = 16.2 m</u>

<u>Hence, the point at which the stones meet, is 28.8 m above the base of the building and 16.2 m below the top of the building.</u>
