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.

What is the weight in Newtons of a ball with a mass of 7.77 kg?

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

76.1N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the ball = 7.77kg

Unknow:

Weight of balloon = ?

Solution:

Weight is the vertical force applied on a body.

Weight = mass x acceleration due gravity

So;

Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity

So;

Weight = 7.77 x 9.8 = 76.1N

A uniform electric field with a magnitude of 5750 N/C points in the positive x direction. Find the change in electric potential

castortr0y [4]

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 5750 N/C

Charge $q=+10.5\times10^{-6}\ C$

Distance = 5.50 cm

(a). When the charge is moved in the positive x- direction

We need to calculate the change in electric potential energy

Using formula of electric potential energy

$\Delta U=-W$

$\Delta U=-F\cdot d$

$\Delta U=-q(E\cdot d)$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta U=-10.5\times10^{-6}\times5750\times5.50\times10^{-2}$

$\Delta U=-3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

The change in electric potential energy is $-3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

(b). When the charge is moved in the negative x- direction

We need to calculate the change in electric potential energy

Using formula of electric potential energy

$\Delta U=-W$

$\Delta U=-F\cdot (-d)$

$\Delta U=-q(E\cdot (-d))$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta U=-10.5\times10^{-6}\times5750\times(-5.50\times10^{-2})$

$\Delta U=3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

The change in electric potential energy is $3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

Hence, This is the required solution.

Where does groundwater come from?

jek_recluse [69]

Groundwater is the water found underground in the cracks and spaces in soil, sand and rock. It is stored in and moves slowly through geologic formations of soil, sand and rocks called aquifers.

Hope this helps.
