Answer:

An element's mass number (A) is the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons. ... Protons and neutrons both weigh about one atomic mass unit or amu. Isotopes of the same element will have the same atomic number but different mass numbers.

exis [7]

The question for this problem would be the minimum headphone delay, in ms, that will cancel this noise.
The 200 Hz. period = (1/200) = 0.005 sec. It will need to be delayed by 1/2, so 0.005/2, that is = 0.0025 sec. So converting sec to ms, will give us the delay of:Delay = 2.5 ms.

A projectile is launched into the air with the initial speed of vi = 40 m/s at a launch angle of 20 degrees above the horizontal

Sphinxa [80]

The range of the projectile is 188 m

Explanation:

The motion of the arrow in this problem is a projectile motion, so it follows a parabolic path which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction

The path of a projectile is the combination of these two motions: see figure in attachment.

In order to find the horizontal range of the projectile, we just need to calculate the horizontal distance travelled.

We have:

t = 5.0 s (time of fligth of the projectile)

and the horizontal velocity is constant, and it is given by

$v_x = v_i cos \theta$

where

$v_i = 40 m/s$ is the initial velocity

$\theta=20^{\circ}$ is the angle of projection

Substituting,

$v_x = (40)(cos 20^{\circ})=37.6 m/s$

And therefore, the range of the projectile is:

$d=v_x t = (37.6)(5.0)=188 m$

How does a compass, which contains a magnetized needle, tell direction?

slavikrds [6]

<h2>Answer::</h2>

A compass works by detecting and responding to the Earth's natural magnetic fields. The Earth has an iron core that is part liquid and part solid crystal, due to gravitational pressure. It is believed that movement in the liquid outer core is what produces the Earth's magnetic field.','.
