A strong magnetic field surrounds Earth and (C) It keeps the solar wind from reaching Earth. If all the particles of the solar wind contact the earth, they would make the ozone layer disappear. The ozone layer is the one in charge of protecting the earth from the ultraviolet radiation.

A neutral atom of tin (Z = 50) has 69 neutrons. (a) How many protons does it have? (b) What is its mass number?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Protons = 50

Mass number = 119

Explanation:

A neutral of tin, Sn, has a Z value of 50 and neutrons are 69.

Z is the atomic number. The atomic number is equal to number of protons or number of electrons in an atom that is neutral i.e:

Z = PROTONS = ELECTRONS

So the number of protons = 50 since Z is 50

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>¦

The bulk of the mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus. To calculate mass number, we simply sum all the elementary particles in the nucleus i.e protons and neutrons. These particles are called the nucleons.

Mass number (A) = P + N

= 50 + 69

= 119

A 2.03 kg book is placed on a flat desk. Suppose the coefficient of static friction between the book and the desk is 0.602 and t
diamong [38]

Answer:

11.98 N

Explanation:

Normal force =   mg =  2.03 * 9.81

coeff of static friction must be overcome for the book to begin moving

       .602 = F / (2.03 * 9.81)   = 11.98  N

In a lab experiment, a student is trying to apply the conservation of momentum. Two identical balls, each with a mass of 1.0 kg,
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Second Trial satisfy principle of conservation of momentum

Explanation:

Given mass of ball A and ball B =\ 1.0\ Kg.

Let mass of ball A and B\ is\ m  

Final velocity of ball A\ is\ v_1

Final velocity of ball B\ is\ v_2

initial velocity of ball A\ is\ u_1

Initial velocity of ball B\ is\ u_2

Momentum after collision =mv_1+mv_2

Momentum before collision = mu_1+mu_2

Conservation of momentum in a closed system states that, moment before collision should be equal to moment after collision.

Now, mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2

Plugging each trial in this equation we get,

First Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(1)+1(-2)=1(-2)+1(-1)\\1-2=-2-1\\-1=-3

momentum before collision \neq moment after collision

Second Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1.5)=1(-.5)+1(-.5)\\.5-1.5=-.5-.5\\-1=-1

moment before collision = moment after collision

Third Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(2)+1(1)=1(1)+1(-2)\\2+1=1-2\\3=-1

momentum before collision \neq moment after collision

Fourth Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1)=1(1.5)+1(-1.5)\\.5-1=1.5-1.5\\-.5=0

momentum before collision \neq moment after collision

We can see only Trial- 2 shows the conservation of momentum in a closed system.
