Answer:
option a.
Explanation:
We can think of an atom as a nucleus (where the protons and neutrons are) and some electrons orbiting it.
We also know that the mass of an electron is a lot smaller than the mass of a proton or the mass of an electron.
So, if all the protons and electrons of an atom are in the nucleus, we know that most of the mass of an atom is in the nucleus of that atom.
Then we define the mass number, which is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. Such that the mass of a proton (or a neutron) is almost equal to 1u
Then if we define A as the total number of protons and neutrons, and each one of these weights about 1u
(where u = atomic mass unit)
Then the weight of the nucleus is about A times 1u, or:
A*1u = A atomic mass units.
Then the correct option is:
The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by __1__ Atomic Mass unit.
option a.
Answer:
25 cm²
Explanation:
Meters and centimeters are both the units for measuring length. The SI unit of measuring length is meters.
Area is the quantity which measures the cross-section occupied by the object.
Thus,
Given that = Area = 0.0025 m²
To convert into cm²
1 m = 100 cm
So, 1 m² = 10000 cm²
So,
<u>Area = 0.0025 × 10000 cm² = 25 cm²</u>
Explanation:
Water does expand with heat (and contract with cooling), but the amount of expansion is pretty small. So when you boil a can filled with water and seal it, the water will contract slightly as it cools. The can may kink slightly, but that will be it. Actually, most likely the only things you will be able to see is then top and bottom will be sucked in and go concave. Just like a commercial can of beans.
Now if you have a can with a little water and a big air space, things are completely different.
As the water boils, water vapour is given off. Steam. Let it boils for a minute just to make sure (nearly) all the air is expelled and the can is filled with steam.
Now when you put the lid on and cool the can, that steam condenses back to water, and goes from filling the can to a few drops of water. The can is now filled (if that is the right word) with a near vacuum, The air pressure, 15 lbs/square inch, will be pressing on every surface of the can, with nothing inside the can to resist it.
The can will crumple before your eyes.
There are no hurricanes in Alaska because it is at the edge of the atmoshpere.
