How many neutrons does element x have if it’s atomic number is 40 and it’s mass number is 82?

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.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST! Briefly describe the three phases of self-regulation.<br> _PSYCHOLOGY_
Zinaida [17]

Phase 1. Forethought/preaction—This phase precedes the actual performance; sets the stage for action; maps out the tasks to minimize the unknown; and helps to develop a positive mindset. Realistic expectations can make the task more appealing. Goals must be set as specific outcomes, arranged in order from short-term to long-term. We have to ask students to consider the following:

<span>When will they start?Where will they do the work?How will they get started?<span>What conditions will help or hinder their learning activities are a part of this phase?
</span></span>

Phase 2. Performance control—This phase involves processes during learning and the active attempt to utilize specific strategies to help a student become more successful.

We have to ask students to consider the following:

<span>Are students accomplishing what they hoped to do?Are they being distracted?Is this taking more time than they thought?Under what conditions do they accomplish the most?What questions can they ask themselves while they are working?<span>How can they encourage themselves to keep working (including self-talk—come on, get your work done so you can watch that television show or read your magazine!)
</span></span>

Phase 3. Self-reflection—This phase involves reflection after the performance, a self-evaluation of outcomes compared to goals.

We have to ask students to consider the following:

<span>Did they accomplish what they planned to do?Were they distracted and how did they get back to work?Did they plan enough time or did they need more time than they thought?<span>Under what conditions did they accomplish the most work. 
Hope this helps!!!!!

A proposed space station includes living quarters in a circular ring 50.0 m in diameter. At what angular speed should the ring r
mel-nik [20]
Given that the space station is free of gravitational force, it is required that it spins an certain speed to acquire centripetal acceleration.

In this case, you want that the centripetal acceleration, Ac, equals g (gravitational acceleration on the earth), becasue this will cause a centripetal force equal to the weight on earth.

The formula for centripetal acceleration is Ac = [angular velocity]^2*R

where R = [1/2]50.0m = 25.0 m

Ac = 9.81 m/s^2

=> [angular velocity]^2 = Ac/R = 9.81m/s^2v/ 25.0m = 0.3924 (rad/s)^2

[angular velocity] = √(0.3924) rad/s = 0.63 rad/s

Answer: 0.63 rad/s

likoan [24]

Answer:

14869817.395 m

Explanation:

\theta=22 microarcsecond

λ = Wavelength = 1.3 mm

Converting to radians we get

22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}\ radians

From Rayleigh Criterion

\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{1.3\times 10^{-3}}{22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}}\\\Rightarrow D=14869817.395\ m

Diameter of the effective primary objective is 14869817.395 m

It is not possible to build one telescope with a diameter of 14869817.395 m. But, we need this type of telescope. So, astronomers use an array of radio telescopes to achieve a virtual diameter in order to observe objects that are the size of supermassive black hole's event horizon.
