An atomic mass unit (symbolized AMU or amu) is defined as precisely 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12. The carbon-12 (C-12) atom has six protons and six neutrons in its nucleus. In imprecise terms, one AMU is the average of the proton rest mass and the neutron rest mass.

To calculate the atomic mass of a single atom of an element, add up the mass of protons and neutrons.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

(a)There are no magnetic monopoles. true

(c) There must be a vector potential. true

(d) Charges create electric fields.2. true

Explanation:

a) there are no magnetic monopoles because magnetic field is created by charges (electrons) and these electrons have dipole field so it is not possible to have magnetic dipoles, more ever Gauss's law always explained that there are not magnetic dipoles. furthermore magnetic monopoles aree caused by magnetic charges and we have electric charges.

c)vector potential is a vector field which serves as a potential for magnetic field so, the magnetic field B by Faraday and Gauss's law is also known as vector potential.

d) electric field is solely generated by charges be it static charges or moving charges if there are no charges it is not possible to have an electric field.
