What is the defining feature of isotopes of the same element?

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: Isotopes. An isotope is one of two or more forms of the same chemical element. Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons in the nucleus, giving them the same atomic number, but a different number of neutrons giving each elemental isotope a different atomic weight.

The gravitational field strength due to its planet is 5N/kg What does it mean?

Dominik [7]

Answer:

The weight of an object is the force on it caused by the gravity due to the planet. The weight of an object and the gravitational field strength are directly proportional. For a given mass, the greater the gravitational field strength of the planet, the greater its weight.

Weight can be calculated using the equation:

weight = mass × gravitational field strength

This is when:

weight (W) is measured in newtons (N)

mass (m) is measured in kilograms (kg)

gravitational field strength (g) is measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)

For a short time the missile moves along the parabolic path y=(18−2x2) km. If motion along the ground is measured as x=(4t−3) km

muminat

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

$y=(18-2x^2) km$

$x=(4t-3)km$

Differentiate x and y w.r.t t

$\frac{dx}{dt}=4$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-4x\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-4x\times 4=-16x=-16(4t-3)$

$v_x=\frac{dx}{dt}=4$

$v_y=\frac{dy}{dt}=-16(4t-3)$

Substitute t=1

$v_x=4$

$v_y=-16(4-3)=-16$

Magnitude of velocity= $\mid v\mid=\sqrt{v^2_x+v^2_y}$

$\mid v\mid=\sqrt{4^2+(-16)^2}=16.49 m/s$

Hence, the magnitude of the missile's velocity=16.49 m/s

$a_x=\frac{d(\frac{dx}{dt})}{dt}=\frac{d(4)}{dt}=0$

$a_y=\frac{d(\frac{dy}{dt})}{dt}=\frac{d(-16(4t-3))}{dt}=-64$

Substitute t=1

$a_x=0,a_y=-64$

$\mid a\mid=\sqrt{a^2_x+a^2_y}$

$\mid a\mid=\sqrt{0+(-64)^2}=64m/s^2$

Hence, the magnitude of acceleration when t=1 s= $64m/s^2$

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 5.1 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.4 x 10-8 m.

ziro4ka [17]

a) The charge on the outer surface is $1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C$

b) The number of ions is $7.5\cdot 10^6$

Explanation:

The membrane behaves as a parallel plate capacitor, whose capacity is given by the equation

$C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}$

where

k = 4.3 is the dielectric constant

$\epsilon_0 =8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m$ is the vacuum permittivity

$A=5.1\cdot 10^{-9} m^2$ is the surface area

$d=1.4\cdot 10^{-8} m$ is the distance between the two plates

Substituting,

$C=\frac{(4.3)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(5.1\cdot 10^{-9})}{1.4\cdot 10^{-8}}=1.4\cdot 10^{-11} F$

The capacity of the membrane is related to the potential difference between the two surfaces by

$C=\frac{Q}{\Delta V}$

where here we have

Q = excess charge on one surface

$\Delta V = 85.5 mV = 0.0855 V$ is the potential difference between the two surfaces

Solving for Q, we find

$Q=C\Delta V=(1.4\cdot 10^{-11})(0.0855)=1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C$

We said that the net charge on the outer surface is

$Q=1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C$

The charge of one K+ ions is equal to the electron charge

$+e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C$

Therefore, the number of ions on the outer surface can be found by dividing the total charge by the charge of a single ion:

$N=\frac{Q}{e}=\frac{1.2\cdot 10^{-12}}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19}}=7.5\cdot 10^6$
