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.

Given the equation p2 = a3, what is the orbital period, in days, for the planet venus? (venus is located 0.72 au from the sun?)
melisa1 [442]

The correct answer is 223 days.

The relationship between the duration of revolution and the separation between the sun is shown by Kepler's third law. Using the notions of circular motion and the gravitational and centripetal forces, we may obtain this equation.

According to Kepler's third rule, the semi-major axis of an orbit is linked to the orbital period of a planet around the sun as follows:

p² = a³

where an is the semi-major axis/distance to the star and p is the orbital period in years.

It is said that a = 0.72 AU for Venus.

P= √(0.72 AU)^3 = 0.61 years.

365 days in a year = 222.9 ≈ 223 days.

What is the magnitude of the torque about his shoulder if he holds his arm straight out to his side, parallel to the floor
const2013 [10]

Complete Question

An athlete at the gym holds a 3.0 kg steel ball in his hand. His arm is 70 cm long and has a mass of 4.0 kg. Assume, a bit unrealistically, that the athlete's arm is uniform.

What is the magnitude of the torque about his shoulder if he holds his arm straight out to his side, parallel to the floor? Include the torque due to the steel ball, as well as the torque due to the arm's weight.

Answer:

The torque is  \tau = 34.3 \  N\cdot m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the steel ball is  m  =  3.0 \  kg

    The length of arm is  l =  70 \ cm  = 0.7 \  m

    The mass of the arm is m_a  = 4.0 \  kg

Given that the arm of the athlete is uniform them the distance from the shoulder to the center of gravity of the arm is mathematically represented as

       r = \frac{l}{2}

=>    r = \frac{ 0.7}{2}  

=>    r = 0.35 \ m  

Generally the magnitude of torque about the athlete shoulder is mathematically represented as

      \tau =  m_a * g * r  + m * g *  L

=>    \tau =  4 * 9.8 * 0.35 + 3 * 9.8 *  0.70

=>    \tau = 34.3 \  N\cdot m

Recall the topography of the Sierra Nevada Mountains east of California's central valley. Which of the following locations would
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

3. western slope

Explanation:

If we investigate the physical features (such as natural and artificial features) of the Sierra Nevada Mountains located at the California's central valley eastern part, the western slope has the highest value of the precipitation level yearly. This is due to the location of the slope and the relevant conditions such as temperature and humidity.
