Most sodium atoms have an atomic mass of 23, but a few have atomic masses of 22 or 24. How do these isotopes differ from one another?
A. In the number of ions
B. In the number of neutrons
C. In the number of protons
D. In the number of electrons

Three different objects, all with different masses, are initially at rest at the bottom of a set of steps. each step is of uniform height . the mass of each object is a multiple of the base mass : object 1 has mass 4..00m , object 2 has mass 1..96m , and object 3 has mass . when the objects are at the bottom of the steps, define the total gravitational potential energy of the three-object system to be zero. if the objects are then relocated as shown, what is the new total potential energy of the system? each answer requires the numerical coefficient to an algebraic expression. each algebraic expression is given using some combination of the variables , , and , where is the acceleration due to gravity. enter only the numerical coefficient. (example: if the answer is 1..23mgd , just enter 1.23)

An electron in an x-ray machine is accelerated through a potential difference of 1.00 × 104 v before it hits the target. what is the kinetic energy of the electron in electron volts?

An element becomes a positively charged ion when itloses protons. loses electrons. gains electrons. gains neutrons.
