Answer: 134 neutrons are there in the nucleus of Radon-220

Explanation:

Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.

Thus, number of protons = atomic number = 86

Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

220 = 86 + Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 134

How much is the tension number 2
mestny [16]

This is what I got:

Net force in the Y direction:

ΣFy = T1 - T2

F = ma

ma = T1 - T2

Isolate for T2

ma - T1 = -T2

Multiply by -1

T1 - ma = T2

100 - (3)(2) = T2

100 - 6 = T2

T2 = 94 N

The distance from Abdullah's house to his school is 2.4km. Abdulla takes 0.6h to go to school on his cycle but takes only 0.4h t
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

The average speed can be calculated as the quotient between the distance travelled and the time needed to travel that distance.

To go to the school, he travels 2.4 km in 0.6 hours, then here the average speed is:

s = (2.4km)/(0.6 hours) = 4 km/h

To return to his home, he travels 2.4km again, this time in only 0.4 hours, then here the average speed is:

s' = (2.4 km)/(0.4 hours) = 6 km/h.

Now, if we want the total average speed (of going and returning) we have that the total distance traveled is two times the distance between his home and school, and the total time is 0.6 hours plus 0.4 hours, then the average speed is:

S = (2*2.4 km)/(0.6 hours + 0.4 hours)

S = (4.8km)/(1 h) = 4.8 km/h
