Answer:

Boron

Explanation:

(a)

H means hydrogen

The atomic mass of hydrogen is 1 and the mass number is 2.

Be means beryllium

The atomic number is 4 and the mass number is 9.

n mean neutron, atomic number is 0 and mass number 1.

By conserving the charge,

the atomic number of X = 1 + 4 - 0 = 5

the mass of X = 2 + 9 - 1 = 10

The element having atomic number 5 and mass number 10 is Boron (B).

A plane designed for vertical takeoff has a mass of 7.7 Ã 103 kg. find the net work done on the plane as it accelerates upward a

Eva8 [605]

The net work is calculated when force is multiplied with distance. Force is calculated when mass is multiplied with the acceleration. So, the solution is as follows:

W = Fd
W = mad
W = (7.7×10³ kg)(1.4 m/s²)(31 m)
<em>W = 334,180 J</em>

Calculate the momentum of a 1000 kg sports car traveling at 30 m/s.

ozzi

Answer:

30,000 kgm/s

Explanation:

m = 1000 kg

v = 30 m/s

Plug those values into the equation:

p = mv

p = (1000 kg)(30 m/s)

p = 30,000 kgm/s

a crude approximation of voice production is to consider the breathing passages and mouth to be a resonating tube closed at one

prohojiy [21]

The fundamental frequency of the tube is 0.240 m long, by taking air temperature to be $37^o$ C is 367.42 Hz.

A standing wave is basically a superposition of two waves propagating opposite to each other having equal amplitude. This is the propagation in a tube.

The fundamental frequency in the tube is given by

$f=\frac{v_T}{4L}$
