Answer: 80

Explanation:

Elements are arranged in periodic table in order of increasing atomic number.

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons

Mercury (Hg) is a d block element and its atomic number is 80, thus it contains 80 protons and 80 electrons.

Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.

Electronic configuration of mercury in terms of noble gas configuration is [Xe]4f^{14}5d^{10}6s^{2}.

An automobile with 0.500 m radius tires travels 80,000 km before wearing them out. How many revolutions do the tires make, negle
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

n = 25,464,790.89 revolutions

The tires have made 25,464,790.89 revolutions

Explanation:

Given;

Radius of tires r = 0.5 m

Total distance travelled d = 80,000 km = 80,000,000 m

1 revolution = 2πr

Total distance d = number of revolutions n × 2πr

d = n×2πr

d = 2πnr

Making n the subject of formula;

n = d/2πr

Substituting the given values;

n = (80,000,000)/(2×π×0.5)

n = 25,464,790.89470 revolutions

n = 25,464,790.89 revolutions

The tires have made 25,464,790.89 revolutions

What is a point of view of an object used to determine another object's motion
Finger [1]
<h2><em>A reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion. An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. You assume that the reference point is stationary, or not moving.</em></h2>

A potter’s wheel moves from rest to an angular speed of 0.20 rev/s in 23.8 s. Assuming constant angular acceleration, what is it
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

0.053 rad/s^2

Explanation:

0.2 rev/s = 0.2 rev/s * 2π rad/rev = 0.4π rad/s

Since the angular acceleration is assumed to be constant, and the wheel's angular speed is increasing from rest (0 rad/s) to 0.4π rad/s within 23.8s. Then the angular acceleration must be

\alpha = \Delta \omega / \Delta t = \frac{0.4 \pi - 0}{23.8} = 0.053 rad/s^2

Who ever answers all these questions they"ll get brain list How exactly did life begin? ... Why do we dream? ... Is there a patt
Ronch [10]

Answer: 1.

<em>The earliest known life-forms are putative fossilized microorganisms, found in hydrothermal vent precipitates, that may have lived as early as 4.28 Gya (billion years ago), relatively soon after the oceans formed 4.41 Gya, and not long after the formation of the Earth 4.54 Gya.</em>

<em>2.There are many theories about why we dream, but no one knows for sure. Some researchers say dreams have no purpose or meaning. Others say we need dreams for our mental, emotional, and physical health. or</em>

<em>Most dreaming occurs during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, which we cycle through periodically during the night. Sleep studies show our brainwaves are almost as active during REM cycles as they are when we're awake. Experts believe the brainstem generates REM sleep and the forebrain generates dreams.</em>

3.A clear rule determines exactly what makes a prime: it's a whole number that can't be exactly divided by anything except 1 and itself. But there's no discernable pattern in the occurrence of the primes. ... That's because after the number 5, there are only four possibilities — 1, 3, 7 and 9 — for prime last digits

4.There are no cures for any kinds of cancer, but there are treatments that may cure you. Many people are treated for cancer, live out the rest of their life, and die of other causes. Many others are treated for cancer and still die from it, although treatment may give them more time: even years or decades.

5.humans can't hop into a time machine and go back in time,

6.Our universe may be one of many, physicists say. The universe we live in may not be the only one out there. In fact, our universe could be just one of an infinite number of universes making up a "multiverse." Though the concept may stretch credulity, there's good physics behind it.

7.Consciousness is everything you experience. It is the tune stuck in your head, the sweetness of chocolate mousse, the throbbing pain of a toothache, the fierce love for your child and the bitter knowledge that eventually all feelings will end.
