The atomic mass of an atom (in amu) is equal to

Physics

ladessa [460]3 years ago
5 0

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.

Your friend just challenged you to a race through an obstacle course. You know in order to beat him, you must run 30 meters with
seropon [69]

Answer:

Velocity = 0.5 m/s South (A)

Explanation:

You need to determine the average rate of velocity.  

The equation you will use is velocity = displacement/time

The displacement is 30m South.

The time is 60 seconds.

Plug into the equation  Velocity = 30m South/60 s

Velocity = 0.5 m/s South

A car travels along a straight line at a constant speed of 60.0 mi/h for a distance d and then another distance d in the same di
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

velocity during second d = 20.0 mi/h

Explanation:

Total distance travelled is 2d, with an average velocity of 30.0 mi/h you can express the time travelled in terms of d:

distance = velocity * time

time = distance / velocity

time = 2d/30.0

The time needed for the first d at 60.0 is:

time = d/60.0

The time in the second d you can get it by substracting both times (total time - time for the first d)

second d time = 2d/30.0 - d/60.0

= 4d/60.0 - d/60.0

= 3d/60.0

and with the time (3d/60.0) and the distance travelled (d) you can get the velocity:

velocity = distance / time

velocity = d / (3d/60.0)

= 60.0/3 = 20.0 mi/h

A block of mass 0.245 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 4 975 N/m and pushed downward so that th
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

10.99 m

Explanation:

m = mass of the block = 0.245 kg

k = spring constant of the vertical spring = 4975 N/m

x = compression of the spring = 0.103 m

h = height to which the block rise

Using conservation of energy

Potential energy gained by the block = Spring potential energy

mgh = (0.5) k x²

(0.245) (9.8) h = (0.5) (4975) (0.103)²

h = 10.99 m

12. The diameter of a circle is 2.42m. Calculate its<br>area in proper significant figure​
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

A = 4.6 [m²]

Explanation:

The area of a circle can be calculated by means of the following equation.

A=\frac{\pi }{4} *D^{2}

where:

A = area [m²]

D = diameter = 2.42 [m]

Now replacing:

A=\frac{\pi }{4} *(2.42)^{2} \\A = 4.6 [m^{2} ]
