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.

Guillaume puts a bottle of soft drink in a refrigerator and leaves it there until its temperature has dropped 15.1 K.

Zarrin [17]

Answer: (a) The magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is $15.1^{o}C$ .

(b) The magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is $27.2^{o}F$ .

Explanation:

(a) Expression for change in temperature is as follows.

$|\Delta T| = |x - y|K$

= 15.1 K

= $|(x - 273.15) - (y - 273.15)|^{o}C$

= $|x - y|^{o}C$

= $15.1^{o}C$

Therefore, the magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is $15.1^{o}C$ .

(b) Change in temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit is as follows.

F = 1.8C + 32

C = $\frac{F - 32}{1.8}$

Since, K = C + 273

or, $\Delta K = \Delta C = \frac{\Delta F}{1.8}$

$\Delta F = 1.8 \Delta K$

= 1.8 (15.1)

= $27.18^{o}F$

or, = $27.2^{o}F$

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is $27.2^{o}F$ .

Given the vector A with components Ax = 2.00, Ay = 6.00, the vector B with components Bx = 2.00, By = 22.00, and the vector D =

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

<em>The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°</em>

Explanation:

<u>Operations With Vectors</u>

Given two vectors in rectangular components:

$\vec a=(ax,ay)\ ,\ \vec b=(bx,by)$

The sum of the vectors is:

$\vec a+\vec b=(ax+bx,ay+by)$

The difference between the vectors is:

$\vec a-\vec b=(ax-bx,ay-by)$

The magnitude of $\vec a$ is:

$|\vec a|=\sqrt{ax^2+ay^2}$

The angle $\vec a$ makes with the horizontal positive direction is:

$\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{ay}{ax}\\$

The question provides the vectors:

$\vec a=(2,6)$

$\vec b=(2,22)$

$\vec d=\vec a-\vec b$

Calculate:

$\vec d=(2,6)-(2,22)=(0,-16)$

The magnitude of $\vec d$ is:

$|\vec d|=\sqrt{0^2+(-16)^2}=\sqrt{0+256}=16$

The angle is calculated by:

$\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{-16}{0}$

The division cannot be calculated because the denominator is zero. We need to estimate the correct angle by looking at the components of the vector. Since the x-coordinate is zero and the y-coordinate is negative, the vector points downwards (south), thus the angle must be -90° or 270° if the range goes from 0° to 360°.

The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°

What caused magnetic fields? What happens If you keep breaking a magnet in two until you reach a single atom?

mote1985 [20]

magnetic materials will produce magnetic field near it

All magnets are made up of small magnet type atoms which are known as domains

These all atoms will align itself so that they all produce strong magnetic field along the axis

this magnetic field will become more strong as more number of atoms are aligned.

Now if we break the magnet into small piece then the magnetic field strength will start decreasing and at the end when only one atom will remain then the magnetic field strength will reduce to the field of one atom only.
