<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

a group of protons and neutrons that are surrounded by electrons

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.</u></em> Atoms of the same element are similar, while different elements have different atoms.
  • <em><u>Atom of an element is made up of sub atomic particles, namely; protons, neutrons, and electrons. The nucleus of the atoms contains the protons and the neutrons, while the energy shells surrounding the nucleus contains the electrons.</u></em>
  • The protons are positively charged , while the neutrons have no charge, which makes the nucleus positively charged. The electrons are negatively charged.

The correct answer is going to be  <span>C, because in the nucleus of an atom there are protons and electrons; which can't move, and are surrounded by electrons on the electrical cloud</span>

Consider an elevator with a table and a book on top of the table. The mass of the table is 10kg and the mass of the book is 2kg.
Step2247 [10]

Newton's second law allows us to find the force of the block on the table is 126 N

Newton's second law says that the net force is proportional to the product of the mass and the acceleration of the body

                Σ F = m a

Where the bold letters indicate vectors, m is the mass and the acceleration of the body

A free body diagram is a diagram where the forces are represented without the details of the bodies, in the attached we can see a free body diagram of the system.

Let's start by finding the acceleration of the elevator with kinematics  

                 v = v₀ + a t

                 a = \frac{v-v_o}{a}  

Where v and v₀ are the current and initial velocity, respectively, at acceleration and t is the time

                 a = \frac{8-1}{2}

                 a = 3.5 m / s²

Let's write Newton's second law for each body

The book

                N₂ - W₂ + N₁ = m a

               

Table

                N₁ - W₁ - W₂ = M a

                W₁ = Mg

                W₂ = mg

                N₁ = (M + m) g + M a

                N₁ = (10 + 2) 9.8 + 10 3.5

                N₁ = 152.6 N

This is the reaction of the earth to the support of the block and the table

               N₂ = ma + m g  - N₁

               N₂ = m ( a +g) - N₁  

               N₂ = 2 (3.5 + 9.8) - 152.6

               N₂ = 26.6 - 152.6

               N₂ = -126 N

The negative sign indicates that the direction is opposite to the one assigned, this is the action of the block on the table.

In conclusion using Newton's second law we can find the forces of the block on the table is 126 N
