Once the atomic number of an atom is known, the number of electrons can be deduced depending on if the atom is an ion or a neutral one.

<h3>Atomic number</h3>

The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom.

For atoms that are neutral, that is, no net charges, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons. In other words, the positive charges always balance the negative charges in neutral atoms.

Thus, if the atomic number of a neutral atom is 6, for example, the proton number will also be 6. Since the proton must balance the electron, the number of electrons will also be 6.

A fixed 11.2-cm-diameter wire coil is perpendicular to a magnetic field 0.53 T pointing up. In 0.10 s , the field is changed to
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the wire, d = 11.2 cm = 0.112 m

initial magnetic field, B₁ = 0.53 T

final magnetic field, B₂ = 0.24 T

time of change in magnetic field, t = 0.1 s

The induced emf in the coil is calculated as;

E = A(dB)/dt

where;

A is area of the coil = πr²

r is the radius of the wire coil = 0.112m / 2 = 0.056 m

A = π(0.056)²

A = 0.00985 m²

E = -0.00985(B₂-B₁)/t

E = 0.00985(B₁-B₂)/t

E = 0.00985(0.53 - 0.24)/0.1

E = 0.00985 (0.29)/ 0.1

E = 0.0286 V

Therefore, the average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V

A 0.40-kg mass attached to the end of a string swings in a vertical circle having a radius of 1.8 m. At an instant when the stri
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

T = 8.55 N

Explanation:

When string makes an angle 40 degree with the vertical then it will have two forces on it

1) gravitational force (mg)

2) Tension force in string (T)

now we know that net force towards the center of the path is known as centripetal force and it is given as

T - mg cos40 = F_c

T - (0.40\times 9.8)cos40 = \frac{mv^2}{L}

T = 3 + \frac{0.40\times 5^2}{1.8}

T = 3 + 5.55

T = 8.55 N
