Beta decay forms a daughter nucleus with a different atomic number than the parent nucleus. The correct answer is option B.

A nucleus loses an electron when it emits the beta particles. The parent and daughter nuclei share the same atomic mass because the mass of an electron is so much less than that of a proton or neutron. The offspring nucleus has an atomic number that is one higher than the parent nucleus.

There are mainly two types of beta decay: beta plus (positron decay) and beta minus (electron decay). The daughter atomic number reduces by one after beta plus decay (the nucleus loses one positive charge) and rises by one after beta minus decay (the nucleus loses one negative charge).

With "toward the wall" designated as the positive direction, the average acceleration felt the ball in the 0.0158 s of contact with the wall is

a_{\rm ave} = \dfrac{-26.412\frac{\rm m}{\rm s} - 28.4\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}}{0.0158\,\mathrm s} ≈ \boxed{-3470 \dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}}

Answer:

Explanation:

Force constant of spring K = 21 N /m

we shall find the common velocity of putty-block system from law of conservation of momentum .

Initial momentum of putty

= 5.3 x 10⁻² x 8.97

= 47.54 x 10⁻² kg m/s

If common velocity after collision be V

47.54 x 10⁻² = ( 5.3x 10⁻² + .454) x V

V = .937 m/s

If x be compression on hitting the putty

1/2 k x² = 1/2 m V²

21 x² = ( 5.3x 10⁻² + .454) x .937²

x² = .0212

x = .1456 m

Two metals are used to make batteries. Would a battery in which both metals components are copper, make a good battery? Explain
alexdok [17]
I think that the answer is yes. Because copper is a cunductor of DC and AC. However electritions are trying to avoid copper wiring because its a poor conductor.

So I guess you could goth ways but I say yes it could work.

What i the denity of a cube that ha a ma of 12. 6 and a meaured ide length of 4. 1 cm?
MrMuchimi

The density of a cube that has a mass of 12. 6 and a measured  length of  4.1 cm is 0.18 kg/cm³

Density=mass/volume

mass=12.6

volume=68.9

density=12.6/68.9

density=0.18 kg/cm³

Density is defined as a material substance's mass per unit volume. Density is described by the equation d = M/V, where d stands for density, M for mass, and V for volume. Grams per cubic centimeter is the unit of measurement for density. For instance, compared to Earth's density of 5.51 grams, water has a density of 1 grams per cubic centimeter . Another way to express density is in kilograms per cubic meter (in meter-kilogram-second or SI units), It is easy to determine the relationship between mass and volume using density. For instance, the formula for determining a body's mass is M = Vd, while the formula for determining a body's volume is V = M/d.

LC Circuits: A series circuit contains an 80-μF capacitor, a 0.020-H inductor, and a switch. The resistance of the circuit is ne
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The rate of current change in the circuit is \frac{dI}{dt}  = 1500 A/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The capacitor has a value C = 80 \mu F

     The inductor has a value L = 0.020 H

     The capacitors voltage is  V_c = 50V at t = 0s

     The new capacitor voltage is V_c__{n}} = 30 V

Generally when the switch is  closed the potential across the inductor is equal to the potential across the capacitor

So for the inductor

     rate of current change is given as

                     \frac{dI}{dt}  = \frac{V_l}{L}

Where V_l is the  voltage across the inductor.     V_l = V_c__{n}}

Substituting value

                    \frac{dI}{dt}  = \frac{30}{0.020}

                     \frac{dI}{dt}  = 1500 A/s
