Naturally occurring element x exists in three isotopic forms: x-28 (27.977 amu, 92.23% abundance), x-29 (28.976 amu, 4.67% abund

ance), and x-30 (29.974 amu, 3.10% abundance). calculate the atomic weight of x.

To solve for the weighted average atomic weight of X, all we have to do is to calculate for the contribution of each isotope. The contribution of each isotope on the atomic weight of x is calculated by multiplying their respective atomic weights with the abundance, therefore:

X – 28 = 27.977 amu * (92.23 / 100)

X – 28 = 25.803 amu

 

X – 29 = 28.976 amu * (4.67 / 100)

X – 29 = 1.353 amu

 

X – 30 = 29.974 amu * (3.10 / 100)

X – 30 = 0.929 amu

 

Hence:

X = X – 28 + X – 29 + X – 30

X = 25.803 amu + 1.353 amu + 0.929 amu

<span>X = 28.085 amu</span>

If 2000 kg cannon fires 2 kg projectile having muzzle velocity 200 m/s then the KINETIC ENERGY of the CANNON will be ("E4" means
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

M V = m v        conservation of momentum (Caps-cannon  Small-projectile)

V = m / M * V = 2 / 2000 * 200 m/s = .2 m/s    recoil velocity of cannon

KE = 1/2 M V^2 = 2000 / 2 kg * (.2 m/s)^2  = 40 kg m^2/s^2 = 40 J

PART A:
olga55 [171]

Answer:

4 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

From Equilibrium of forces, The Tension in string is cancelled by the Weight (product of mass and acceleration due to gravity) of the body acting downwards.

The Net force = Mass * Acceleration.

Since Net Force = 20 Newton, Mass = 5kg, therefore;

20 = 5kg * acceleration. Dividing the RHS and LHS of the equation by 5, we have;

Acceleration = \frac{20}{5} which gives 4.

Note: RHS means Right Hand Side.

         LHS means Left Hand Side.

List 5 reason why water is not thermometric liquid​
kolezko [41]

Answer:

(1) it is transparent so it makes the reading difficult. (2) it is volatile. (3) it is a poor conductor of heat. (4) it has a higher specific heat capacity, so it absorbs more heat from the body with which it is kept in contact. (5) Water cannot be used in thermometer because of its higher freezing point and lower boiling point than other liquids . If water is used in a thermometer , it will start phase change at 0oC and 100oC and will not measure temperature , out of this range .

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST :)
