Question

Suppose you have 10 atoms of Weberium: 4 with energy 0 eV, 3 with energy 1 eV, 2 with energy 4 eV, and 1 with energy 6 eV. The total energy is:

a) 18 eV
b) 15 eV
c) 12 eV
d) 11 eV

Answer 1

The total energy of the Weberium atoms can be found by multiplying the number of atoms with their respective energies and adding them all together. The correct answer is (a) 18 eV.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total energy of the Weberium atoms can be found by multiplying the number of atoms with their respective energies and adding them all together.

For example, the energy of the 4 atoms with 0 eV is 4 * 0 eV = 0 eV. The energy of the 3 atoms with 1 eV is 3 * 1 eV = 3 eV.

Similarly, the energy of the 2 atoms with 4 eV is 2 * 4 eV = 8 eV, and the energy of the 1 atom with 6 eV is 1 * 6 eV = 6 eV.

Adding all these energies together, we get a total energy of 0 eV + 3 eV + 8 eV + 6 eV = 17 eV.

Therefore, the correct answer is (a) 18 eV.
