Mass is calculated by using an objects inertia. Since inertia is a quality of matter that resists motion, we can apply an increasing force to an object until it accelerates.
Then, by measuring its acceleration we can now determine its mass using the simple equation F=m×a, except rewritten as m=Fa.
So we divide the force that we applied by the acceleration rate and we get the objects mass.
Without inertia this cannot be done.
∴ Answer is C
Answer: Im not sure if you are doing this in your class.
Explanation:
So... for the element of MAGNESIUM, you already know that the atomic number tells you the number of electrons. That means there are 12 electrons in a magnesium atom. Looking at the picture, you can see there are two electrons in shell one, eight in shell two, and two more in shell three
Answer:
6
Explanation:
FCC is face centered cubic lattice. In FCC structure, there are eight atoms at the eight corner of the cubic unit cell and one atom centered in each of the faces. FCC unit cells consist of four atoms, (8/8) at the corners and (6/2) in the faces.
Given that, Cu has FCC structure and it contains a vacancy at origin (0, 0, 0). And there is no other vacancy directly adjacent to the vacancy at the origin. So, all the adjacent positions contain Cu atoms. Hence, the total number of adjacent atoms of the vacancy at origin can jump into this vacancy.
the above FCC unit cell clearly indicates that there are six adjacent atoms adjacent to the vacancy at origin
So, the total number of adjacent atoms of the vacancy at origin can jump into this vacancy is 6.
Fusion or melting is the phase change from solid to liquid.
