Answer :The mass number is 56.

Explanation:

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons = 26+ 30 =56

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 = 26

Hence, neutrons and protons affects the mass number and thus the mass number will be 56.

What will a spring scale read for the weight of a 75.0-kg woman in an elevator that moves upward with constant speed of 5.8 m/s
Sholpan [36]
<span>On the scale the only external forces are the man's weight acting downwards and the normal force which the scale exerts back to support his weight. So F = Ma = mg + Fs The normal force Fs (which is actually the reading on the scale) = Ma + Mg But a = 0 So Fs = Mg which is just his weight. Fs = 75 * 9.8 = 735N</span>

Once a disk forms around a star, the process of planetary formation can begin. Rank the evolutionary stages for the formation of
PolarNik [594]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The evolutionary stages for the formation of planets from earliest to latest will be:

1. Dust keeps matter inside the disk cool enough for planet formation to start

2. Dust grains form condensation nuclei on which surrounding atoms condense to form small clumps of matter.

3. Small clumps of matter stick together via the process of accretion to form planetesimals a few hundred kilometers in diameter.

4. Planetesimals begin to accrete, forming protoplanets.

5. A collection of a few planet-sized protoplanets remain in a fairly cleared out disk around the star

Andreyy89

Answer:

-450 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

p₀ = p

0 = (1.5 kg) (1.5 m/s) + (0.005 kg) v

v = -450 m/s
