<span>Depends on the precision you're working to. proton mass ~ 1.00728 amu neutron mass ~ 1.00866 amu electron mass ~ electron mass = 0.000549 amu Binding mass is: mass of constituents - mass of atom Eg for nitrogen: (7*1.00728)-(7*1.00866)-(7*0.000549) -14.003074 = 0.11235amu Binding energy is: E=mc^2 where c is the speed of light. Nuclear physics is usually done in MeV[1] where 1 amu is about 931.5MeV/c^2. So: 0.11235 * 931.5 = 104.6MeV Binding energy per nucleon is total energy divided by number of nucleons. 104.6/14 = 7.47MeV This is probably about right; it sounds like the right size! Do the same thing for D/E/F and recheck using your numbers & you shouldn't go far wrong :) 1 - have you done this? MeV is Mega electron Volts, where one electronVolt (or eV) is the change in potential energy by moving one electron up a 1 volt potential. ie energy = charge * potential, so 1eV is about 1.6x10^-19J (the same number as the charge of an electron but in Joules). It's a measure of energy, but by E=mc^2 you can swap between energy and mass using the c^2 factor. Most nuclear physicists report mass in units of MeV/c^2 - so you know that its rest mass energy is that number in MeV.</span>

A physics professor is pushed up a ramp inclined upward at 30.0° above the horizontal as she sits in her desk chair, which slide
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

V = 3.17 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the professor m = 85.0 kg

Angle of the ramp θ = 30.0°

Length travelled L = 2.50 m

Force applied F = 600 N

Initial Speed  u = 2.00 m/s

Solution

Work = Change in kinetic energy

F_{net}d = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} - \frac{1}{2}mu^{2}\\\frac{2F_{net}d }{m} = v^{2} -u^{2}\\ v^{2} =\frac{2F_{net}d }{m} +u^{2}\\ v^{2} =\frac{2(600cos30 - 85\times 9.8 \times sin30) \times 2.5 }{85} +2.00^{2}\\ v^{2} = 10.066\\v = 3..17m/s

a projectile is shot horizontally from the edge of a cliff, 230m above the ground. the projectile lands 300m from base of the cl
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The time taken by the projectile to hit the ground is 6.85 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Vertical height of cliff = 230 m

Distance = 300 m

Suppose, determine the time taken by the projectile to hit the ground.

We need to calculate the time

Using second equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Where, s = vertical height of cliff

u = initial vertical velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value in the equation

230=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times t^2

t=\sqrt{\dfrac{230\times2}{9.8}}

t=6.85 sec

Hence, The time taken by the projectile to hit the ground is 6.85 sec.

The can be found elsewhere and as follows:


<span>A. of magnetic effects.
B. the ball tries to pull the rod’s electrons over to it.
C. the rod polarizes the metal.
D. the rod and the ball have opposite charges.

Why does the chord of an electric heater not glow while the heating element does​
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The heating element of the heater is made up of alloy which has very high resistance so when current flows through the heating element, it becomes too hot and glows red. But the resistance of cord which is usually of copper or aluminum is very low so it does not glow.
