Describe the importance of the neutron in a atomic nuclei

2 answers:

Neutrons are electrically neutral, but contribute to the mass of a nucleus to nearly the same extent as the protons. Neutrons can explain the phenomenon of isotopes (same atomic number with different atomic mass). The main role of neutrons is to reduce electrostatic repulsion inside the nucleus.

Neutrons are required for the stability of nuclei, with the exception of the single-proton hydrogen nucleus. Neutrons are produced copiously in nuclear fission and fusion. They are a primary contributor to the nucleosynthesis of chemical elements within stars through fission, fusion, and neutron capture processes.

Hope it helps!

Answer

given,

difference between the two consecutive maximum

λ = 0.870 - 0.540

λ = 0.33 m

speed of sound = 340 m/s

b) frequency of the sound

v = f x λ

340 = f x 0.33

$f =\dfrac{340}{0.33}$

f = 1030.3 Hz

a) phase difference

the expression of phase difference is given by

$\phi = \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}\ \delta$

$\delta = \Delta x - \lambda$

$\delta = 0.540 - 0.33$

$\delta = 0.21\ m$

now,

$\phi = \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}\ \times 0.21$

$\phi = \dfrac{2\pi}{0.33}\ \times 0.21$

$\phi = 3.99 rad$

Vilka [71]

Answer:

C. Momentum is conserved but not kinetic energy.

Explanation:

This case represents an entirely inelastic collision, that is, a collision between the car and the truck that reduces total kinetic energy of the entire system, whereas linear momentum is conserved. Hence, correct answer is C.
