A typical carbon atom has six protons, six neutrons, and six electrons. Which of these has the least amount of mass?

Butoxors [25]3 years ago

One proton or one neutron have very close to the same mass.

Their mass is about the same as the mass of 1,840 electrons !
So six electrons have roughly the same mass as 0.0033 of one
proton or one neutron.

Yes, these masses are very tiny.  None of them was ever measured
until the 20th Century.  But all of them have now been measured,
very precisely and accurately.  This is very impressive, and should
give us a lot of admiration for scientists of the past hundred years.
It would be very interesting to look around online and find out
how they did it.

What is the distance write the equation
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

135 m

Explanation:

Given:

vi = 12 m/s

vf = 18 m/s

t = 9s

Find: x

x = ½ (vf + vi) t

x = ½ (18 m/s + 12 m/s) (9 s)

x = 135 m

How can a person detect infrared rays without an instrument?
natita [175]
So we want to know how can we detect infrared rays without an instrument. Infrared rays or heat, are a part of electromagnetic spectrum. We have specialized nerve cells in our skin called thermoreceptors that can detect differences in temperature that are produced by infrared part of EM spectrum.

An ideal air-filled parallel plate capacitor with plate a separation of 4.0 cm has a plate area of 0.040 m2. what is the capacitance of this capacitor with air between these plates<u> 8.9 pF.</u>

An ideal air-filled parallel-plate capacitor has round plates and carries a fixed amount of equal but opposite charge on its plates.

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor depends on area of each plate, dielectric medium between the plates and distance between the plates.

The amount of energy stored in a plate capacitor is given by

⇒ U = \frac{Q^{2}}{2C},

where, Q is the stored charge and C is the capacitance,
