An atom undergoes nuclear decay, but its atomic number is not changed.
What type of nuclear decay did the atom undergo?
A. Gamma decay
B. Beta decay
C. Nuclear fission
D. Alpha decay

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Gamma decay

Explanation:

A form of nuclear decay in which the atomic number is unchanged is a gamma decay.

The atom has undergone a gamma decay.

In a gamma decay, no changes occur to the mass and atomic number of the substance.

Gamma rays have zero atomic and mass numbers. When they cause decay, they cause no change to the mass and atomic numbers. They simply produce gamma rays during such reactions and these rays are very energetic.

Calculate the velocity of the wreckage immediately after the impact. Give the speed for your first answer and the compass heading for your second answer. (remember, the CAPA abbreviation for degrees is deg) -1.75

Answers

Answer:

v = 8.1 m/s

θ = -36.4º (36.4º South of East).

Explanation:

Assuming no external forces acting during the collision (due to the infinitesimal collision time) total momentum must be conserved.Since momentum is a vector, if we project it along two axes perpendicular each other, like the N-S axis (y-axis, positive aiming to the north) and W-E axis (x-axis, positive aiming to the east), momentum must be conserved for these components also.Since the collision is inelastic, we can write these two equations for the momentum conservation, for the x- and the y-axes:We can go with the x-axis first:

        [tex]p_{ox} = p_{fx} (1)[/tex]

         ⇒ [tex]m_{tr} * v_{tr}= (m_{olds} + m_{tr}) * v_{fx} (2)[/tex]

Replacing by the givens, we can find vfx as follows:

       [tex]v_{fx} = \frac{m_{tr}*v_{tr} }{(m_{tr} + m_{olds)} } = \frac{4146kg*9.7m/s}{2028kg+4146 kg} = 6.5 m/s (3)[/tex]

We can repeat the process for the y-axis:

        [tex]p_{oy} = p_{fy} (4)[/tex]

        ⇒[tex]m_{olds} * v_{olds}= (m_{olds} + m_{tr}) * v_{fy} (5)[/tex]

Replacing by the givens, we can find vfy as follows:

       [tex]v_{fy} = \frac{m_{olds}*v_{olds} }{(m_{tr} + m_{olds)} } = \frac{2028kg*(-14.5)m/s}{2028kg+4146 kg} = -4.8 m/s (6)[/tex]

The magnitude of the velocity vector of the wreckage immediately after the impact, can be found applying the Pythagorean Theorem to vfx and vfy, as follows:

       [tex]v_{f} = \sqrt{v_{fx} ^{2} +v_{fy} ^{2} }} = \sqrt{(6.5m/s)^{2} +(-4.8m/s)^{2}} = 8.1 m/s (7)[/tex]

In order to get the compass heading, we can apply the definition of tangent, as follows:

       [tex]\frac{v_{fy} }{v_{fx} } = tg \theta (8)[/tex]

      ⇒ tg θ = vfy/vfx = (-4.8m/s) / (6.5m/s) = -0.738 (9)

      ⇒ θ = tg⁻¹ (-0.738) = -36.4º

Since it's negative, it's counted clockwise from the positive x-axis, so this means that it's 36.4º South of East.

6 A test of a driver's perception/reaction time is being conducted on a special testing track with level, wet pavement and a driving speed of 50 mi/h. When the driver is sober, a stop can be made just in time to avoid hitting an object that is first visible 385 ft ahead. After a few drinks under exactly the same conditions, the driver fails to stop in time and strikes the object at a speed of 30 mi/h. Determine the driver's perception/reaction time before and after drinking. (Assume practical stopping distance.)

Answers

Answer:

a. 10.5 s b. 6.6 s

Explanation:

a. The driver's perception/reaction time before drinking.

To find the driver's perception time before drinking, we first find his deceleration from

v² = u² + 2as where u = initial speed of driver = 50 mi/h = 50 × 1609 m/3600 s = 22.35 m/s, v = final speed of driver = 0 m/s (since he stops), a = deceleration of driver and s = distance moved by driver = 385 ft = 385 × 0.3048 m = 117.35 m

So, a = v² - u²/2s

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = v² - u²/2s

a = (0 m/s)² - (22.35 m/s)²/2(117.35 m)

a =  - 499.52 m²/s²/234.7 m

a = -2.13 m/s²

Using a = (v - u)/t where u = initial speed of driver = 50 mi/h = 50 × 1609 m/3600 s = 22.35 m/s, v = final speed of driver = 0 m/s (since he stops), a = deceleration of driver = -2.13 m/s² and t = reaction time

So, t = (v - u)/a

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

t = (0 m/s - 22.35 m/s)/-2.13 m/s²

t = - 22.35 m/s/-2.13 m/s²

t = 10.5 s

b. The driver's perception/reaction time after drinking.

To find the driver's perception time after drinking, we first find his deceleration from

v² = u² + 2as where u = initial speed of driver = 50 mi/h = 50 × 1609 m/3600 s = 22.35 m/s, v = final speed of driver = 30 mi/h = 30 × 1609 m/3600 s = 13.41 m/s, a = deceleration of driver and s = distance moved by driver = 385 ft = 385 × 0.3048 m = 117.35 m

So, a = v² - u²/2s

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = v² - u²/2s

a = (13.41 m/s)² - (22.35 m/s)²/2(117.35 m)

a = 179.83 m²/s² - 499.52 m²/s²/234.7 m

a = -319.69 m²/s² ÷ 234.7 m

a = -1.36 m/s²

Using a = (v - u)/t where u = initial speed of driver = 50 mi/h = 50 × 1609 m/3600 s = 22.35 m/s, v = final speed of driver = 30 mi/h = 30 × 1609 m/3600 s = 13.41 m/s, a = deceleration of driver = -1.36 m/s² and t = reaction time

So, t = (v - u)/a

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

t = (13.41 m/s - 22.35 m/s)/-1.36 m/s²

t = - 8.94 m/s/-1.36 m/s²

t = 6.6 s

He throws a second ball (B2) upward with the same initial velocity at the instant that the first ball is at the ceiling. c. How long after the second ball is thrown do the two balls pass each other? d. When the balls pass each other how far are they above the juggler’s hands? e. When they pass each other what are their velocities?

Answers

Answer:

hello your question has some missing parts

A juggler performs in a room whose ceiling is 3 m above the level of his hands. He throws a ball vertically upward so that it just reaches the ceiling.

answer : c) 0.39 sec

               d)  2.25 m

               e) 1.92 m/sec

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the first ball = 7.67 m/sec ( calculated )

Time required for first ball to reach ceiling = 0.78 secs ( calculated )

Determine how long after the second ball is thrown do the two balls pass each other

Distance travelled by first ball downwards when it meets second ball can be expressed as : d = 1/2 gt^2 =  9.8t^2 / 2

hence d = 4.9t^2  ----- ( 1 )

Initial speed of second ball = first ball initial speed = 7.67 m/sec

3 - d = 7.67t - 4.9t  ---- ( 2 )

equating equation 1 and 2

3 = 7.67t   therefore t = 0.39 sec

Determine how far the balls are above the Juggler's hands ( when the balls pass each other )

form equation 1 ;

d = 4.9 t^2 = 4.9 *(0.39)^2 = 0.75 m

therefore the height the balls are above the Juggler's hands is

3 - d = 3 - 0.75 = 2.25 m

determine their velocities when the pass each other

velocity = displacement / time

velocity = d / t = 0.75 / 0.39 sec  = 1.92 m/sec

g Incandescent bulbs generate visible light by heating up a thin metal filament to a very high temperature so that the thermal radiation from the filament becomes visible. One bulb filament has a surface area of 30 mm2 and emits 60 W when operating. If the bulb filament has an emissivity of 0.8, what is the operating temperature of the filament

Answers

Answer:

2577 K

Explanation:

Power radiated , P = σεAT⁴ where σ = Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.6704 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²K⁴, ε = emissivity of bulb filament = 0.8, A = surface area of bulb = 30 mm² = 30 × 10⁻⁶ m² and T = operating temperature of filament.

So, T = ⁴√(P/σεA)

Since P = 60 W, we substitute the vales of the variables into T. So,

T = ⁴√(P/σεA)

= ⁴√(60 W/(5.6704 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²K⁴ × 0.8 × 30 × 10⁻⁶ m²)

= ⁴√(60 W/(136.0896 × 10⁻¹⁴ W/K⁴)

= ⁴√(60 W/(13608.96 × 10⁻¹⁶ W/K⁴)

= ⁴√(0.00441 × 10¹⁶K⁴)

= 0.2577 × 10⁴ K

= 2577 K

A 35 kg box initially sliding at 10 m/s on a rough surface is brought to rest by 25 N

of friction. What distance does the box slide?

Answers

Answer:

the distance moved by the box is 70.03 m.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the box, m = 35 kg

initial velocity of the box, u = 10 m/s

frictional force, F = 25 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion to determine the deceleration of the box;

-F = ma

a = -F / m

a = (-25 ) / 35

a = -0.714 m/s²

The distance moved by the box is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2ad

where;

v is the final velocity of the box when it comes to rest = 0

0 = 10² + (2 x - 0.714)d

0 = 100 - 1.428d

1.428d = 100

d = 100 / 1.428

d = 70.03 m

Therefore, the distance moved by the box is 70.03 m.

Answer:

5766.7 K

Explanation:

We are given that

Radius of Sun , R=[tex]6.96\times 10^{8} m[/tex]

Distance between the Sun and the Earth, D=[tex]1.50\times 10^{11}m[/tex]

Irradiance arriving on the Earth is the value for AMO=[tex]1350W/m^2[/tex]

We have to find the temperature at the surface of the Sun.

We know that

Temperature ,T=[tex](\frac{K_{sc}D^2}{\sigma R^2})^{\frac{1}{4}}[/tex]

Where [tex]K_{sc}=1350 W/m^2[/tex]

[tex]\sigma=5.67\times 10^{-8}watt/m^2k^4[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]T=(\frac{1350\times (1.5\times 10^{11})^2}{5.67\times 10^{-8}\times (6.96\times 10^{8})^2})^{\frac{1}{4}}[/tex]

T=5766.7 K

Hence, the temperature at the surface of the sun=5766.7 K

Mach no represents times of speed of sound , the speed of jet

1.79 x speed of sound = 569.44

speed of sound = 318.12 m /s

speed of sound at 20⁰C = 343 m /s

Difference = 343 - 318.12 = 24.88⁰C

We know that 1 ⁰C change in temperature changes speed of sound

by .61 m /s

How does speed and mass effect kinetic energy ?

Answers

Answer:

in fact, kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass: if you double the mass, then you double the kinetic energy. Second, the faster something is moving, the greater the force it is capable of exerting and the greater energy it possesses. ... Thus a modest increase in speed can cause a large increase in kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Answer: The more mass of an object has, the more Kinetic energy it has.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is comparable to mass. If you double the mass then you double the kinetic energy. The faster the object is moving the greater the energy possesses. A large increase in speed can have a large increase in kinetic energy.

A solid sphere of radius R = 5 cm is made of non-conducting material and carries a total negative charge Q = -12 C. The charge is uniformly distributed throughout the interior of the sphere.

What is the magnitude of the electric potential V at a distance r = 30 cm from the center of the sphere, given that the potential is zero at r = [infinity] ?

Answers

Answer:

V= -3.6*10⁻¹¹ V

Explanation:

Since the charge is uniformly distributed, outside the sphere, the electric field is radial (due to symmetry), so applying Gauss' Law to a spherical surface at r= 30 cm, we can write the following expression:

      [tex]E* A = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_{0} } (1)[/tex]

At r= 0.3 m the spherical surface can be written as follows:

       [tex]A = 4*\pi *r^{2} = 4*\pi *(0.3m)^{2} (2)[/tex]

Replacing (2) in (1) and solving for E, we have:

      [tex]E = \frac{Q}{4*\pi *\epsilon_{0}*r^{2} } = \frac{(9e9N*m2/C2)*(-12C)}{(0.3m)^{2} y} (3)[/tex]

Since V is the work done on the charge by the field, per unit charge, in this case, V is simply:V = E. r (4)Replacing (3) in (4), we get:

       [tex]V =E*r = E*(0.3m) = \frac{(9e9N*m2/C2)*(-12C)}{(0.3m)} = -3.6e11 V (5)[/tex]

V = -3.6*10¹¹ Volts.

The electrical potential module will be [tex]-3.6*10^-^1^1 V[/tex]

We can arrive at this answer as follows:

To answer this, we owe Gauss's law. This is because the charge is evenly distributed across the sphere. This will be done as follows:

[tex]E*A=\frac{Q}{^E0} \\\\\\A=4*\pi*r^2[/tex]

Solving these equations will have:

[tex]E=\frac{Q}{4*\pi*^E0*r^2} \\E= \frac{(9e9N*m2/c2)*(-12C)}{(0.3m)^2y}[/tex]

As we can see, the electric potential is carried out on the field charge. In this case, using the previous equations, we can calculate the value of V as follows:

[tex]V=E*r\\V=E*0.3m= \frac{(9e9N*m^2/C2)*(-12C)}{0.3m} \\V= -3.6*10^-^1^1 V.[/tex]
