Answer:

c. 2 MeV.

Explanation:

The computation of the binding energy is shown below

= [Zm_p + (A - Z)m_n - N]c^2\\\\=[(1) (1.007825u) + (2 - 1 ) ( 1.008665 u) - 2.014102 u]c^2\\\\= (0.002388u)c^2\\\\= (.002388) (931.5 MeV)\\\\=2.22 MeV

= 2 MeV

As 1 MeV = (1 u) c^2

hence, the binding energy is 2 MeV

Therefore the correct option is c.

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct binding energy could come

And, the same is to be considered

Why might video games increase creativity while the use of cell phones, the internet, or computers do not?
taurus [48]

Explanation:

Video games are developed around a structure that is unique from your usual media, where there is a sense purpose in mind when playing a game, as decided by the player, and it allows them to explore creative options in order to solve scenarios, depending on the genre. In the use of phones, internet, or computers, this structure is more rare and diverse from video games, which does not lean more toward a creative purpose to build from. That idea gives people the inspiration and discover skills they never knew they even had.

What relationship exists between the amplitude of a wave and amount of disturbance in the water?
guapka [62]
A wave is a result of the disturbance in the equilibrium state.  There are two types of wave, transverse and longitudinal. Transverse wave affects amplitude while longitudinal wave affects the frequency of the wave. As for the transverse wave, the magnitude of the perpendicular disturbance of the wave is directly proportional to the amplitude of the wave. The higher the transverse disturbance the higher the amplitude.

Some students set up a circuit and decided to measure the voltage at different points around
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

 V₁ = 6 V ,  V₂ = V₃ = 3 V

Explanation:

To solve this circuit we must remember that there are two fundamental types of construction in series and parallel.

* a serial circuit there is only one path for current

in this circuit the constant current in the entire circuit and the voltage is the sum of the voltage of each term

* Parallel circuit in this there are two or more paths for the current

in this circuit the voltage is constant and the east is divided between each branch

with these principles let's analyze the proposed circuit

The DC battery is in parallel with resistor R1 and the equivalent of the other branch,

as in a parallel circuit the voltage is constant

               V₁ = 6 V

in the other branch (23) it forms a series construction, where the current is constant

               6 = iR₂ + iR₃

as they indicate that each resistance has the same value

              6 = 2 iR

              V = V₂ = V₃ = 3 V
