Question
Chapter 5, Problem 1P
To determine
Summarize the number of neutrons, protons, and electrons for neutral atoms of the following nuclides:
Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution
For nuclide
Find the atomic number (Z):
Refer Periodic Table,
The atomic number (Z) (it gives both the number of protons and electrons for the neutral atom) is 14.
Find the number of neutrons (N):
Here, A is total number of nucleons.
Substitute 29 for A and 14 for Z.
Similarly calculate the number of neutrons, protons, and electrons for the remaining neutral atoms.
Summarize the calculated values of number of neutrons, protons, and electrons as in Table (1).
Nuclide | Neutrons (N) | Protons | Electrons |
15 | 14 | 14 | |
23 | 21 | 21 | |
26 | 23 | 23 | |
127 | 83 | 83 | |
147 | 94 | 94 |

Complete the profile leveling notes in Table 1. Show the arithmetic check and sample
calculations of your work. Draw a neat sideview sketch showing the location of all stations and
indicate on the sketch all of the numbers in your completed table.
3. A level loop was run starting at BM 20 and going clockwise around the loop shown below in
Figure 2. The given known elevation of BM 20 is 1418.013 ft. When closing the level loop, BM 20
was found to have an elevation of 1417.890 ft.
(a) Adjust the elevation of each station to correct for error. Show sample calculations of your
work.

A W14 x 82 with 20 ft length column is part of a braced frame. The load and moments
computed from service loads, and bending is about the x axis are (axial compressive dead
load of 63 k; axial compressive live load of 76 k; upper dead moment of 32 ft-k; upper
live moment of 56 ft-k; lower dead moment of 65 ft-k; lower live moment of 95 ft-k; the
moments cause the member to bend in double curvature). Determine the lateral-torsional
buckling modification factor C₁.
