Answer:

12 neutrons

Explanation:

The number of protons also shows the atomic number. Therefore the element in question is Krypton (Kr), which also is a noble gas.

Neutrons = Mass number - protons - electrons

Here neutrons = 84 - 36 - 36 = 12

In Challenge Example 11.9 (p. 280), after the explosion, suppose that the m1 fragment shot directly north at 12 m/s and the m3 f
Inga [223]

The question is incomplete. The mass of the object is 10 gram and travelling at a speed of 2 m/s.

Solution:

It is given that mass of object before explosion is,m = 10 g

Speed of object before explosion, v = 2 m/s

Let $m_1, m_2 \text{ and}\ m_3$ be the masses of the three fragments.

Let $v_1, v_2 \text{ and}\ v_3$ be the velocities of the three fragments.

Therefore, according to the law of conservation of momentum,

$mv=m_1v_1 +m_2v_2+m_3v_3$

$10 \times 2  \hat i=3 \times 12 \hat{j} + 3(v_{2x} \hat{i}+v_{2y} \hat{j})-4 \times 9 \hat{j}$

So the x- component of the velocity of the m2 fragment after the explosion is,

$3v_{2x} = 20$

∴ $v_{2x} = 6.67 \ m/s$

From the top of a cliff, a person tosses a pebble straight downward with an initial velocity of -9.0 meters/second. After 0.50 s
Irina-Kira [14]
Y - yo = Vo*t - g * (t^2) / 2

Vo = - 9.0 m/s
t = 0.50 s

=> y - yo = -9.0 m/s * 0.5 s - 9.8 m/s^2 * (0.5s)^2 / 2 = - 4.5m - 1.225m = - 5.725 m.

2. Suppose that a parallel-plate capacitor has circular plates with radius R = 30 mm and a plate separation of d = 5.0 mm. Suppo
seropon [69]

Answer:

The maximum value of the induced magnetic field is 2.901\times10^{-13}\ T.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of plate = 30 mm

Separation = 5.0 mm

Frequency = 60 Hz

Suppose the maximum potential difference is 100 V and r= 130 mm.

We need to calculate the angular frequency

Using formula of angular frequency

\omega=2\pi f

Put the value into the formula

\omega=2\times\pi\times60

\omega=376.9\ rad/s

When r>R, the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the r.

We need to calculate the maximum value of the induced magnetic field that occurs at r = R

Using formula of magnetic filed

B_{max}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}\epsilon_{0}R^2\timesV_{max}\times\omega}{2rd}

Where, R = radius of plate

d = plate separation

V = voltage

Put the value into the formula

B_{max}=\dfrac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(30\times10^{-3})^2\times100\times376.9}{2\times130\times10^{-3}\times5.0\times10^{-3}}

B_{max}=2.901\times10^{-13}\ T

Hence, The maximum value of the induced magnetic field is 2.901\times10^{-13}\ T.

A man weighs himself twice in an elevator. When the elevator is at rest, he weighs 824 N; when the elevator starts moving upward
kifflom [539]

Answer: c. 1.3 m/s^2

Explanation:

When he is at rest, is weight can be calculated as:

W = g*m

where:

m = mass of the man

g = gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

We know that at rest his weight is W = 824N, then we have:

824N = m*9.8m/s^2

824N/(9.8m/s^2) = m = 84.1 kg

Now, when the elevators moves up with an acceleration a, the acceleration that the man inside fells down is g + a.

Then the new weight is calculated as:

W = m*(g + a)

and we know that in this case:

W = 932N

g = 9.8m/s^2

m = 84.1 kg

Then we can find the value of a if we solve:

932N = 84.1kg*(9.8m/s^2 + a)

932N/84.1kg = 11.1 m/s^2 = 9.8m/s^2 + a

11.1 m/s^2 - 9.8m/s^2 = a = 1.3 m/s^2

The correct option is C
