The mass number of an atom is equal to the number of protons plus the number of neutrons that it contains. In other words, the number of neutrons in an atom is its mass number minus its atomic number.

Explanation:

protons

The mass number of an atom is its total number of protons and neutrons. Atoms of different elements usually have different mass numbers , but they can be the same. For example, the mass number of argon atoms and calcium atoms can both be 40.

If the velocity of a wave is 12 m/s and its frequency is 600 hertz, what would be its wavelength?

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

» λ = 0.02m

Explanation:

Given :

Velocity of the wave {v}= 12 m/s

Frequency {f} = 600 Hz

Apply Wavelength formula :

• $λ = \frac{v}{f}$

→ λ = $\frac{12}{600}$

→ λ = $\frac{1}{50}$

→ λ = 0.02m
