Answer:

E=1.53\times 10^7\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the car, m = 17,690 kg

The speed of the car over the hill, v = 5 m/s

The car is 87.4 m above the  ground.

We need to find the total mechanical energy of the car-Earth system. Mechanical energy is equal to the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy. So,

E=mgh+\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\E=17690\times 9.8\times 87.4+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 17690 \times (5)^2\\\\E=1.53\times 10^7\ J

So, the total mechanical energy of the car-Earth system is 1.53\times 10^7\ J.

It is characterized by fast, quick passes down the court and using more players on the attack than the opposition has for their defense. Slower, more deliberate play characterizes the slow-break style. This technique calls for more thoughtful action; players maneuver carefully in order to shoot in this type of offense.

Answer:

protons+neutrons= mass number, so if the mass number is 13 and protons are 6 its 13-6=7 neutrons

Explanation:

mass number: the sum of the number of protons and

neutrons in an atom

this is key as it explains that protons+neutrons= mass number, so if the mass number is 13 and protons are 6 its 13-6=7 neutrons
