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.

Express the distance between the moon and earth in meters with a meter prefix (km).

tankabanditka [31]

Answer;

= 3.86 × 10^8 Meters

Explanation;

-The distance between the Earth and the moon is 386000 km

But; 1 km = 1000 m

Therefore; 386000 km will be equivalent to;

= 386000 × 1000

= 386000000 m

= 3.86 × 10^8 meters

What is the maximum speed when the conditions are mass =450 kg, initial height= 30 m, and the roller coaster is initially at res

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

B. 24.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the roller coaster, m = 450 kg

height of the roller coaster, h = 30 m

The maximum potential energy of the roller coaster due to its height is given by;

$P.E_{max} = mgh\\\\PE_{max} = 450 *9.8*30\\\\PE_{max} = 132,300 \ J$

$P.E_{max} = K.E_{max} \ (law \ of \ conservation\ of \ energy)$

$K.E_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2\\\\ v_{max}^2 = \frac{2K.E_{max}}{m}\\\\ v_{max}^2 = \frac{2*132300}{450}\\\\ v_{max}^2 =588\\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{588}\\\\ v_{max} = 24.2 \ m/s$

Therefore, the maximum speed of the roller coaster is 24.2 m/s.
