10. How much force is needed to
accelerate a carbon atom to
Mass of Carbon Atom: 2×10-26kg
Speed of light: 3×108 meters/sec (m/s)
Acceleration = Δv/Δt= 3×108 m/sec/sec
(m/s2)
Force = m a = 2×10-26kg × 3×108 m/s2

12. Objects are made out of atoms
Mass is the ability to resist acceleration
Scientific notation lets us work with the very large and very small
23. Objects are made out of atoms
Mass is the ability to resist acceleration
Scientific notation lets us work with the very large and very small
Electrons on the outsides of atoms give all the chemical properties
Electrons live in standing wave states each with a particular energy/
frequency
No more than two electrons in each state
Putting energy into an atom can raise an electron to a high state
An electron falling to a low state releases a characteristic photon
with a defined energy
With massive atoms, these characteristic photons can be in the 100
keV medical interest range.

36. Nucleus is held together
by “Strong Force”
Strong force must be
stronger than
electric repulsion
between protons
Neutrons and
protons both make
strong force

38. Is the mass of a nucleus
the sum of its parts?
+ + m=1.0073×2
m=1.0087×2 m=4.0026
total=4.0320 amu difference = .0302 amu

40. Attraction between neighboring nuclei
Surface tension
Repulsion between positive protons
Same number of protons as neutrons

Z=protons, N=neutrons, A=N+Z, 12C has 6 neutrons, 14C has 8.
Shell model explains why N≳Z, shell bands
Strong force holds nuclei together
Nuclei have less mass than constituent protons and neutrons. The
difference is the binding energy.
Liquid drop model part of semi empirical mass formula, explains
binding energy with contributions from strong force interactions,
surface tension, electric repulsion from protons, N~Z
