Beta emission is occurring in the given nuclear reaction.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:</u>
In this equation, the reactant is the Thorium atom, which is reduced to palladium. As the atomic number get decreased by one, so an electron will be emitted. This process of emission of electrons by radiation or decaying the reactant nuclei to form a new product nuclei is termed as beta emission.
So, the electrons are generally termed as beta particles while the positrons are termed as positive beta particles. So this is a kind of radioactive reactions where the reactant changes to new element by releasing an electron and thus there is a change in the atomic number of the product by one.
Answer:
Neptune is approximately 41 times as far from the sun as Venus
Explanation:
Estimate = distance of Neptune from the sun ÷ distance of Venus from the sun = 4.5×10^9 ÷ 1.18×10^8 = 40.9 (approximately 41)
Answer:
deflected toward bottom of the screen
Explanation:
When entering the region with magnetic field, a magnetic force is exerted on the proton. This force is perpendicular to both the direction of the magnetic field and the direction of the velocity of the proton.
The direction of the force can be determined by using the right-hand rule. We have:
- Index finger: direction of the velocity of the proton --> to the right
- Middle finger: direction of the magnetic field --> into the screen
- Thumb: direction of the magnetic force --> toward bottom of the screen
So, the correct answer is
deflected toward bottom of the screen
Newton said . . . F = m a
Divide each side by m . . . a = F / m
Acceleration = (force) / (mass)
Acceleration = (145.O N) / (40.0 kg)
<em>Acceleration = 3.625 m/s²</em>
