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

Physics

Butoxors [25]2 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.

Three sticks are arranged to form a right triangle. If the lengths of the three sticks are 0.47 m, 0.62 m and 0.78 m, what are t
Svetradugi [14.3K]

The angles in the triangle are 91 degrees, 53 degrees and 36 degrees respectively.

<h3>What is the cosine rule?</h3>

From the cosine rule we know that;

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcosC

Since;

a = 0.47 m

b =  0.62 m

c =  0.78 m

Then;

(0.78)^2 = (0.47)^2 + (0.62)^2 - 2(0.47 * 0.62)cosC

0.61 = 0.22 + 0.38 - 0.58 cosC

0.61 - ( 0.22 + 0.38) = - 0.58 cosC

0.01 = - 0.58 cosC

C = cos-1(0.01/-0.58)

C = 91 degrees

Using the sine rule;

b/Sin B = c/Sin C

0.62/sinB = 0.78/sin 91

0.62/Sin B = 0.78

B = sin-1 (0.62//0.78)

B = 53 degrees

Angle A is obtained from the sum of angles in a triangle;

180 - (91 + 53)

A = 36 degrees

How do you ask someone out?
vazorg [7]

talk, make conversation. text isnt always the answer, but sadly now it is. text them or better yet, call them. you can talk and then do not just blurt it out. say it calmly. they say yes, congrats, but if they say no, do not have a mental breakdown. it might ruin a friendship.
