Read the passage then answer the question that follows. Mass Number

The mass number of an atom is the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons For example, you can calculate the mass number of the copper atom listed in Table 4: 29 protons plus 34 neutrons equals a mass number of 63.

Also, if you know the mass number and the atomic number of an atom, you can calculate the number of neutrons in the nucleus. The number of neutrons is equal to the mass number minus the atomic number. In fact, if you know two of the three numbers—mass number, atomic number, number of neutrons—you can always calculate the third.

The mass number of an atom is 35 and it has 16 protons. How many neutrons does this atom contain?

The atom contains
neutrons

Boxing gloves are padded to lessen the force of a blow. (a) calculate the force exerted by a boxing glove on an opponent’s face, if the glove and face compress 7.50 cm during a blow in which the 7.00-kg arm and glove are brought to rest from an initial speed of 10.0 m/s. (b) calculate the force exerted by an identical blow in the gory old days when no gloves were used and the knuckles and face would compress only 2.00 cm. (c) discuss the magnitude of the force with glove on. does it seem high enough to cause damage even though it is lower than the force with no glove?
