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.

shows a conical pendulum, in which the bob (the small object at the lower end of the cord) moves in a horizontal circle at const
Contact [7]

Answer:

a) T=0.40 N

b) T=1.9 s

Explanation:

Let's find the radius of the circumference first. We know that bob follows a circular path of circumference 0.94 m, it means that the perimeter is 0.94 m.

The perimeter of a circunference is:

P=2\pi r=0.94

r=\frac{0.94}{2\pi}=0.15 m

Now, we need to find the angle of the pendulum from vertical.

tan(\alpha)=\frac{r}{L}=\frac{0.15}{0.90}=0.17

\alpha=9.44 ^{\circ}

Let's apply Newton's second law to find the tension.

\sum F=ma_{c}=m\omega^{2}r

We use centripetal acceleration here, because we have a circular motion.

The vertical equation of motion will be:

Tcos(\alpha)=mg (1)

The horizontal equation of motion will be:

Tsin(\alpha)=m\omega^{2}r (2)

a) We can find T usinf the equation (1):

T=\frac {mg}{cos(\alpha)}=\frac{0.04*9.81}{cos(9.44)}=0.40 N

We can find the angular velocity (ω) from the equation (2):

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{Tsin(\alpha)}{mr}}=3.31 rad/s

b) We know that the period is T=2π/ω, therefore:

T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{3.31}=1.9 s

I hope it helps you!

What is the acceleration due to gravity at an altitude of 116?
Schach [20]
Gravitational acceleration (Ga) is  inversely proportional to  k / Distance^2

so Ga * Distance^2 = K

On the surface of Earth acceleration due to gravity is about 9.8m/s^2 with an average distance to the earths core of about 6371 km (Wolfram alpha).

So k = 9.8 * 6371^2
I'm presuming that your distance of 116 is km

As 
Ga = k / distance^2 

Ga = ((9.8 * 6371^2) / (6371 + 116)^2 ) = 397778481.8 / 42081169

= 9.45 m/s^2 to 2sf

A 31 cm tall object is placed in front of a concave mirror with a radius of 34 cm. The distance of the object to the mirror is 9
Setler [38]

Focal length is the distance between the center of a convex lens or a concave mirror and the focal point of the lens or mirror — the point where parallel rays of light meet, or converge. From the optics the focal length of the mirror can be defined as the radius of the mirror divided between two, or in other words, half the radius of the mirror.

f = \frac{R}{2}

f = \frac{34}{2}

f = 17cm

Therefore the focal length of the mirror is 17cm
