An atom of a certain element has 36 protons, 36 electrons, and a mass number of 84. At room temperature, this element is a very

stable gas. How many neutrons are in this atom?

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

The plates of a parallel-plate capacitor are 2.50 mm apart, and each carries a charge of magnitude 80.0 nC. The plates are in va
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

10000 V

0.00225988700565 m²

8\times 10^{-12}\ F

Explanation:

E = Electric field = 4\times 10^6\ V/m

d = Gap = 2.5 mm

Q = Charge = 80 nC

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

Potential difference is given by

V=Ed\\\Rightarrow V=4\times 10^6\times 2.5\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow V=10000\ V

The potential difference between the plates is 10000 V

Area is given by

A=\dfrac{Q}{\epsilon_0E}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{80\times 10^{-9}}{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 4\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow A=0.00225988700565\ m^2

The area of the plate is 0.00225988700565 m²

Capacitance is given by

C=\dfrac{\epsilon_0A}{d}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.00225988700565}{2.5\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow C=8\times 10^{-12}\ F

The capacitance is 8\times 10^{-12}\ F

19. After a snowstorm, you put on your frictionless skis and tie a rope to the back of your friend’s truck. Your total mass is 7
Kisachek [45]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total mass is 70 kg

The truck exerts a constant force of 20 N.

Then the net force is given by :

F = ma

a is acceleration of rider

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{20}{70}\\\\a=\dfrac{2}{7}\ m/s^2

Initial velocity of rider is 0. So, using equation of kinematics to find the final velocity as :

v=u+at\\\\v=at\\\\v=\dfrac{2}{7}\times 15\\\\v=4.28\ m/s

Since, 1 m/s = 2.23 mph

4.28 m/s = 9.57 mph

So, the speed of the rider is 4.28 m/s or 9.57 mph.
