The atomic number gives you the number of protons element x has. Since the mass of protons and neutrons are almost similar(around 1 amu), the mass number can be thought of as the sum of protons and neutrons. so if element x whose atomic number is 40 has a mass number of 82, then we know that 42 of those must be neutrons.

A vector has a component of 10 m in the x-direction, a component of 10 m in the y-direction, and a component of 5 m in the z dir
Kobotan [32]

The magnitude of this vector is 15

A vector is a quantity or phenomenon that has two independent properties: magnitude and direction. The term also denotes the mathematical or geometrical representation of such a quantity. Examples of vectors in nature are velocity, momentum, force, electromagnetic fields, and weight.

The magnitude of a vector formula is used to calculate the length for a given vector (say v) and is denoted as |v|. So basically, this quantity is the length between the initial point and endpoint of the vector.

Let vector be = a

component of vector in x direction = 10 i

component of vector in y direction = 10 j

component of vector in z direction = 5 z

vector a = 10 i + 10 j + 5 z

magnitude of vector a = |a| = \sqrt{10^{2} +10^{2} + 5^{2}    }

                                             = 15

Gauss's Law states that the net electric flux, , through any closed surface is proportional to the charge enclosed: . The analog
Natali [406]

The analogous formula for magnetic fields is the Ampere's law.

To find the answer, we need to know about the Ampere's law of magnetism.

<h3>What's Ampere's law of magnetism?</h3>

Ampere's law states that the close line integral of magnetic field around a current carrying loop is directly proportional to the current enclosed within it.

<h3>What's is the mathematical expression of Ampere's law?</h3>

Mathematically, Ampere's law is

B•dl= μ₀I

Thus, we can conclude that the analogous formula for gauss law is the Ampere's law in magnetism.

Two cars are traveling in the same direction down a highway at 65 miles per hour. What is the relative velocity of the second ca
Levart [38]

Answer:

5 hours

Explanation:

Let the required time be x hours. The time will be the same for both cars.

The cars will cover different distances because they are travelling at different speeds.

<em>D=S×T </em>

The distance travelled by the slower car = 50×x miles.

The distance travelled by the faster car = 58×x miles.

The two distances differ by 40 miles.

58x−50x=40

8x=40

x=5 hours

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A second method:

The difference in the distances is 40 miles

The difference in the speeds is #8mph.

The time to make up the 40 miles= \frac{40}{8}=5 hours
