<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>

.A particle starts on the origin. It is pushed back to -5.7 m in 2.1 s. Then it is pushed
harina [27]

Answer: The average velocity is -0.965m/s

Explanation: The first step is to calculate the two velocities is both directions. A velocity is a distance per unit time.

V=d/ t

=-5.7/2.1

=-2.7m/s

For the other direction the velocity is

V=7.3/9.5

=0.77m/s

The average velocity the add the velocities and divide them by 2.

V=-2.7+0.77/2

V= 0.965m/s

Three resistors, each having a resistance, R, are connected in parallel to a 1.50 V battery. If the resistors dissipate a total
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The value of resistance of each resistor, R is 2.25 Ω

Explanation:

Given;

voltage across the three resistor, V = 1.5 V

power dissipated by the resistors, P = 3.00 W

the resistance of each resistor, = R

The effective resistance of the three resistors is given by;

R(effective) = R/3

Apply ohms law to determine the current delivered by the source;

V = IR

I = V/R

I = 3V/R

Also, power is calculated as;

P = IV

P = (3V/R) x V

P = 3V²/R

R = 3V² / P

R = (3 x 1.5²) / 3

R = 2.25 Ω

Therefore, the value of resistance of each resistor, R is 2.25 Ω

As the mass and volume increases, the densit will<br> Increase, decrease, or remain the same
ikadub [295]
We can't tell from the information given.

Density is the RATIO of mass to volume.  So, if mass and volume both
increase but their ratio decreases, then the density decreases.

But if mass and volume both increase and their ratio also increases,
then the density increases.

Examples:

-- Start with a pile of some kind of substance.
    Mass = 150 grams
    Volume = 100 cm³

    Density = (mass) / (volume) = (150 gm)/(100cm³)  =  1.5 gm/cm³

-- Add 50 grams of mass.  Mass = 200 gm.
    Add 50 cm³ of volume.  Volume = 150cm³.

     Density = (mass) / (volume) = (200 gm)/(150 cm³)  =  1.33 gm/cm³.
                                                                                  Density decreased.

-- To the original pile, add 100 grams of mass.  Mass = 250 gm.
                               add 50 cm³ of volume.  Volume= 150 cm³.

     Density = (mass) / (volume) = (250 gm)/(150 cm³)  =  1.67 gm/cm³.
                                                                            Density increased.

-- To the original pile, add 60 grams of mass.  Mass = 210 gm.
                               add 40 cm³ of volume.  Volume = 140 cm³.

   Density = (mass) / (volume) = (210 gm)/(140 cm³)  =  1.5 gm/cm³.
                                                                         Density no change.
                                                                 Same as the original pile.

if only conductive heat loss was significant for a house then by what percentage would you lower the heat loss fi the temp was r
Maslowich
I think the conductive heat loss is proportional to the DIFFERENCE
between the inside and outside temperatures.  In other words, if it's the
same temperature inside and outside, then no matter what that temperature
is, no heat flows through the walls of the house in either direction.

You said it's 20° outside, and you turn the thermostat down from 70° to 60°.
So you'd be reducing the DIFFERENCE between the inside and outside
temperatures from 50° to 40°.

From 50 to 40 is a decrease of (10/50) = 20%.  So your heat loss ... and
the amount that gets added to your heating bill ... becomes 20% less for
each hour that the inside and outside temperatures stay like this.
