Cobalt has an atomic number (Z) of 27, which means the nuclei of all its isotopes have 27 protons. Cobalt 60 has an atomic mass of 60, so it has 60-27 = 33 neutrons.
The mass of 27 isolated protons plus the mass of 33 isolated neutrons would be:
27*(1.007825 u) + 33*(1.008665 u) = 60.497220 u
The actual mass of the nucleus of 60-Co is 59.933820 u.
Mass defect: 60.497220 u - 59.933820 u = 0.563400 u
The mass defect is equal to the binding energy of a nucleus.
using the fact that 1 u = 931.5 MeV/c^2
(0.563400 u)*(931.5 MeV/u) = 524.807 MeV
Answer:
x = -12,
Step-by-step explanation:
-1 + 5/4x = -16
5/4 x = -16 + 1
5/4 x = -15
x = -15 * 4/5
x = -12.
Answer:
1/22
Step-by-step explanation:
assuming that the marbles drawn are not replaced:
P(red) = 3/12 or 1/4
P(green) = 4/11
P(blue) = 5/10 or 1/2
multiply the probabilities together:
1/4 x 4/11 x 1/2 = 1/22
3x -x + 8 + 5x - 2 = 10
3x - x + 5x = 10 -8 +2
7x = 4
x = 7/4
Answer:
The table C
Step-by-step explanation:
when you multiply the x number in the table c by 0.3 you get the same answer as the one in the y column. The constant of proportionality is the value that stays constant in the ratio. Since when you multiply each number in the x column by 0.3 and you always get the number in the y column it shows that the table c is correct.
