Since the charges on nucleus and electron are opposite in nature, an attractive force exists between them. It is true in generally, that when objects are made to move closer together in the direction of an attractive force, potential energy decreases (and increases whenever attracting objects are force to move apart).

When a star explodes, does their energy only reach Earth by the light that they transmit? How much energy does one star give off when it explodes and how much of that energy hits Earth? What happens to that energy?

The energy from a star exploding reaches earth in the form of all kinds of electromagnetic radiation, from radio to gamma rays. A supernova can give off as much...

Is Mars moving closer or farther away from the sun? If it is moving closer, is it possible that life could spontaneously develop?

Life could develop on Mars if it grew closer (which is definitely not possible) because it would thaw out the frozen water and there could be oceans of it.

What happens to the electron' s energy as it moves through the electron transport chain?

The energy level goes up. As electrons move through the electron transport chain, protons are pumped through protein structures imbedded in the inner membrane. As the protons are pumped...

Why does each cell have 2 copies of each gene is it because when cell dived the copy the nucleus and the genes present in the nucleus?

A copy comes from one each of the sperm and egg cell (animals). During , the genetic material is halved so that the gamete (sex cell) has half the genetic...

How does the nucleus of a copper atom compare to the nucleus of a nickel atom?

$Ni, Z=28$ contains ONE LESS PROTON, one less positively charge massive nuclear particle, than $Cu, Z=29$. This difference in the $Z$ enables us to identify the different as copper and...

If an atom has 35 protons in the nucleus, how many electrons will it have orbiting the nucleus?

An atom is neutral as it has the same number of electrons that of protons. So, if an atom has 35 protons i.e. the of it is 35, then it...

An isotope of U-235 has 92 protons in its nucleus. How many neutrons are there in the nucleus of a U-238 isotope?

We are given that $Z_"uranium"=92$...because this is the number of protons, massive, positively charged particles present ion the uranium nucleus. $Z="the atomic number"$ and it DEFINES the identity of the...

What is the frequency of light given off by an electron that loses $4.05 x 10^-19$ J of energy as it moves from the 2nd to the 1st energy level?

We use the equation $E=hnu$ where $E=$energy $=4.05*10^(-19)$ $nu=$frequency of light $h=$ $=6.6*10^(-34)$ $nu=E/h=(4.05*10^(-19))/(6.6*10^(-34))=0.61*10^15 Hz$ $=6.1*10^14 Hz$

A mercury atom in the ground state absorbs 20.00 electronvolts energy and is ionized by losing an electron. How much energy does this electron have after the ionization?

The kinetic energy $("KE")$ of a particle is equal to the difference between its absorbed energy $("AE")$ and its ionization energy $("IE")$. The first ionization energy of $"Hg"$ is $"10.4375...
