Answer: D
Explanation:
Atomic weight is measured by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus. Argon's atomic number is 18 while potassium's is 19. This means that Argon will always have 18 protons while potassium will always have 19 protons.
To make the numbers easier to work with, round each atomic weight. We'll say the atomic weight of potassium is 39 and the atomic weight of argon is 40. To see how many neutrons each one has, I can set up a simple equation for each using the following equation:
Atomic weight = protons + neutrons
Potassium:
39 = 19 + N --> N = 20
Argon:
40 = 18 + N --> N = 22
An atom is defined by the number of protons it has, but the number of neutrons can vary. We call these isotopes, or atoms with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. As the math shows, argon typically has more neutrons per atom than potassium does.
The speed of light in a piece of plastic is 1.87 × 10^8 meters per second. What is the absolute index of refraction of this plastic?
options:
1.0
1.6
0.67
1.33
Answer:
n = 1.6
Explanation:
The formula for the calculation of the absolute index of refraction is given as follows:
[tex]n = \frac{c}{v}[/tex]
where,
n = index of refraction
c = speed of light in vacuum = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
v = speed of light in the piece of plastic = 1.87 x 10⁸ m/s
Therefore,
[tex]n = \frac{3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s}{1.87\ x\ 10^8\ m/s}[/tex]
n = 1.6
A bmw 23 goes from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 5 seconds . It is also used in the second law of motion
Answer:
Acceleration = 5.3645 m/s²
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity, u = 0mph
Final velocity, v = 60 mph
Time, t = 5 seconds
To find the acceleration (also used in the second law of motion), we would use the following formula;
A = (v - u)/t
Conversion:
Miles per hour to meters per seconds;
0 mph = 0 mps
1 mph = 0.44704 mps
60 mph = 60 * 0.44704 = 26.8224 mps
Next, we find the acceleration;
Acceleration = (26.8224 - 0)/5
Acceleration = 26.8224/5
Acceleration = 5.3645 m/s²

Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 2.1 \ kilograms}}[/tex]
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to motion. The formula 1/2 the product of mass and the squared velocity.
[tex]E_k=\frac{1}{2} mv^2[/tex]
We know the baseball's kinetic energy is 105 Joules. It is also traveling at a velocity of 10 meters per second. `
First, convert the units of Joules to make unit cancellation easier later in the problem. 1 Joule (J) is equal to 1 kilogram square meter per square second (kg*m²/s²). The baseball's kinetic energy of 105 J is equal to 105 kg*m²/s².
Now we know 2 values:
[tex]E_k= 105 \ kg*m^2/s^2[/tex][tex]v= 10 \ m/s[/tex]Substitute these values into the formula.
[tex]105 \ kg*m^2/s^2= \frac{1}{2} m (10 \ m/s)^2[/tex]
Now we need to solve for m, the mass. Solve the exponent.
(10 m/s)²= 10 m/s * 10 m/s = 100 m²/s²[tex]105 \ kg *m^2/s^2 = \frac{1}{2} m (100 \ m^2/s^2)[/tex]
Multiply on the right side.
[tex]105 \ kg *m^2/s^2 = m (\frac{1}{2} * 100 \ m^2/s^2)[/tex]
[tex]105 \ kg *m^2/s^2 = m (50 \ m^2/s^2)[/tex]
The variable, m, is being multiplied by 50 square meters per square second. The opposite of multiplication is division, so we divide both sides by that value.
[tex]\frac {105 \ kg *m^2/s^2 }{50 \ m^2/s^2}= \frac{ m (50 \ m^2/s^2)}{50 \ m^2/s^2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac {105 \ kg *m^2/s^2 }{50 \ m^2/s^2}= m[/tex]
The units of square meter per square second will cancel out.
[tex]\frac {105 }{50} \ kg= m[/tex]
[tex]2.1 \ kg=m[/tex]
The mass of the baseball is 2.1 kilograms.

Gravity is the force that objects exert on each other because of their masses. The strength of the gravitational force between two objects
depends on two factors, mass and distance. How is gravity related to mass and distance? Choose ALL the statements that apply.
If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled.
As distance between the objects increases, the force of gravity decreases.
As distance between the objects increases, the force of gravity increases.
The more mass two objects have, the less the force of gravity the masses exert on each other
Greater mass results in greater force.
Explanation:
Newton's law of universal gravitation states that the force of gravity affects everything with mass in the universe. Newton's law also states that the strength of gravity between any two objects depends on the masses of the objects and the distance between them

5- A 2.0 kg block of aluminum (specific heat = 897 J/kg·K) is at an initial temperature of 300 K. What will its final temperature be if (3.35 × 105 J )of thermal energy is transferred to the block?
Answer:
T = 486.6 K
Explanation:
The final temperature of the block can be found using the following formula:
[tex]Q = mC\Delta T\\[/tex]
where,
Q = Thermal Energy Transferred = 3.35 x 10⁵ J
m = mass of aluminum block = 2 kg
C = Specific Heat = 897 J/kg.K
ΔT = Change in Temperature = T - 300 K
T = Final Temperature of the Block = ?
Therefore,
[tex]3.35\ x\ 10^5\ J = (2\ kg)(897\ J/kg.K)(T-300\ K)\\\\5.38\ x\ 10^5\ J + 3.35\ x\ 10^5\ J = (1794 J/K)(T)\\\\T = \frac{8.73\ x\ 10^5\ J}{1794\ J/K}[/tex]
T = 486.6 K
A ball rolled 12.0 m [E] in 10.0 s, hit an obstacle, and rolled straight back. After the collision, the ball rolled 8.00 m [W] in 6.00 s. What was the average velocity of the ball?
Answer:
the average velocity of the ball is 5 m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
initial position of the ball, x₁ = 12 m East
final position of the ball, x₂ = 8 m West
initial time of motion, t₁ = 10.0 s
final time of motion, t₂ = 6.0 s
The average velocity is calculated as follows;
[tex]v = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t} = \frac{x_1 \ - \ x_2}{t_1 \ - \ t_2}[/tex]
let the Eastward direction be positive
Let the westward direction be negative
[tex]\frac{x_1 \ - \ x_2}{t_1 \ - \ t_2} = \frac{12 \ - \ (-8)}{10 -6}= \frac{20}{4} = 5 \ m/s[/tex]
Therefore, the average velocity of the ball is 5 m/s.
A projectile is launched from the ground with an initial horizontal velocity of 6.0m/s [right] and an initial vertical velocity of 5.0/s [up]. At what angle from vertical is it launched?
Answer:
θ = 39.8°
Explanation:
Her, we will use the trigonometric ratio of the tangent to find the launch angle of the projectile from the vertical:
[tex]tan\ \theta = \frac{v_y}{v_x}[/tex]
where,
θ = launch angle from the vertical = ?
vy = vertical component of velocity = 5 m/s
vx = horizontal component of velocity = 6 m/s
Therefore,
[tex]tan\ \theta = \frac{5\ m/s}{6\ m/s}\\\\\theta = tan^{-1}(0.8333)[/tex]
θ = 39.8°
newton's second law states that when a net force acts on an object, it accelerates it.Explain how it would be possible for two or more forces to act on object without accelerating it
Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of a body is proportional to the net external force that acts on the body.
A body accelerated when it is acted upon by an unbalanced net external force.
When the external forces acting on a body are balanced, the effect of each force is cancelled by the other hence the body is not accelerated according to Newton's second law.

If the oil film becomes dark when the path length difference is less than one fourth the wavelength, what is the thickest the oil film can be and appear dark at all visible wavelengths
His question is incomplete, the complete question is;
A film oil on water will appear dark when it is very thin, because the path length difference becomes small compared with the wavelength of light and there is a phase shift at the top surface.
If the oil film becomes dark when the path length difference is less than one fourth the wavelength, what is the thickest the oil film can be and appear dark at all visible wavelengths. Oil has an index of fraction of 1.40.
In this question, assume the wavelength visible light is in the range of 400 nm to 700 nm.
Answer:
the minimum thickness of the oil for destructive interference to occur is approximately 35.714 nm
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Path difference for destructive interference between the two reflected waves ( top and bottom );
δ = 2nt ---------- let this be equation 1
Also, for one path difference of reflected waves, one fourth of the wavelength of reflected waves;
δ = λ/4 ---------- let this be equation 2
from equation 1 and 2;
δ = δ
2nt = λ/4
we find t;
8nt = λ
t = λ / 8n
given that; λ[tex]_{minimum[/tex] = 400 nm and n = 1.40
we substitute
t = 400nm / 8(1.40)
t = 400nm / 11.2
t = 35.7142857 ≈ 35.714 nm
Therefore, the minimum thickness of the oil for destructive interference to occur is approximately 35.714 nm
A middle-A tuning fork vibrates with a frequency f of 440 hertz (cycles per second). You strike a middle-A tuning fork with a force that produces a maximum pressure of 5 pascals. Write a sine model that gives the pressure P as a function of the time t (in seconds).A middle-A tuning fork vibrates with a frequency f of 440 hertz (cycles per second). You strike a middle-A tuning fork with a force that produces a maximum pressure of 5 pascals. Write a sine model that gives the pressure P as a function of the time t (in seconds).
Answer:
P = 5sin(880πt)
Explanation:
We write the pressure in the form P = Asin2πft where A = amplitude of pressure, f = frequency of vibration and t = time.
Now, striking the middle-A tuning fork with a force that produces a maximum pressure of 5 pascals implies A = 5 Pa.
Also, the frequency of vibration is 440 hertz. So, f = 440Hz
Thus, P = Asin2πft
P = 5sin2π(440)t
P = 5sin(880πt)
Two asteroids are located a certain distance away from each other. They have the same mass . The gravitational force of attraction is f . If the mass of one of the asteroids is doubled, how will the gravitational force be affected
Answer:
F' = 2F
Explanation:
The gravitational force of attraction between asteroids is given by Newton's Law of Gravitation:
[tex]F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}[/tex]
where,
F = Force
G = Universal Gravitational Constant
m₁ = m₂ = m = mass of each asteroid
r = distance between asteroids
Therefore,
[tex]F = \frac{Gm^2}{r^2}[/tex] --------------------- eq(1)
Now, if we double the mass of one asteroid:
[tex]F' = \frac{G(2m^2)}{r^2} \\\\F' = 2\frac{Gm^2}{r^2}[/tex]
using equation (1):
F' = 2F

magnitude of the electric field at
that point?
Answer: 180
Explanation: Acellus
This equation gives the magnitude of the electric field generated by a point charge Q. The distance r in the denominator is the separation between the point of interest and the point charge Q. Or the center of a spherical charge.
What magnitude of the electric field at that point?It is simple to determine the size of the electric field by calculating the force per charge on the test charge. From this definition, the common metric units for electric field strength are derived. Electric field units would be force units divided by charge units, as the definition of an electric field is a force per charge.
F = |qvBsin()| calculates the magnetic force's magnitude. The following factors are involved in determining the force's direction. A plane is first defined by the magnetic field vector, B, and the velocity vector, v. In or out of this plane, the magnetic force is perpendicular to it.
Therefore, The electric force F, or Coulomb force, exerted per unit positive electric charge q at that place can be used to determine an electric field's strength, or E = F/q.
