part 1
mass = ρ x V
mass = 1739 kg/m³ x 3.8 km³ = 6608.2 kg
PE (potential energy)= mgh
PE = 6608.2 kg x 9.81 x 403
PE = 2.61 x 10⁷ J
part 2
megaton of TNT (Mt) =4.2 x 10¹⁵ J
convert PE to Mt:
2.61 x 10⁷ J : 4.2 x 10¹⁵ J = 6.21 x 10⁻⁹ Mt
To answer, evaluate the power of 10 in the given choices. If it is positve, move the decimal n places to the right. If it is negative, move the decimal n corresponding places to the left. From all the choices given, only the choices D, E, and F will give us the correct answer.
Carbon: C, 12.011, 6, 12
Oxygen: O, 8, 8, 8, 16
Boron: B, 10.811, 5, 5, 11
Atoms of the same element having equal numbers of protons, but different numbers of neutrons is called isotope.
Answer:
I think it has to do something with their ionizations... not entirely sure though.
