Ostrovityanka [42]1 year ago
6 0

The type of radioactive decay that has a positive charge is alpha particles, which are positively charged.

<h3>What is radioactive decay?</h3>

The expression radioactive decay makes reference to the emission of ionizing radiation for a given atom, thereby an unstable atom may lose energy by releasing radiation.

Alpha particles are specific atomic particles consisting of 2 protons  (positive charge) and also 2 neutrons that share chemical bonds.

In conclusion, the type of radioactive decay that has a positive charge is alpha particles, which are positively charged.

135g of an unknown substance gains 9133 J of heat as it is heated from 25⁰C to 100⁰C. Using the chart below, determine the ident
telo118 [61]

Answer:

The unknown substance is Aluminum.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the change in the temperature of substance. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 25 ⁰C

Final temperature (T₂) = 100 ⁰C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

ΔT = T₂ – T₁

ΔT = 100 – 25

ΔT = 75 ⁰C

Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the substance. This can be obtained as follow:

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 75 ⁰C

Mass of the substance (M) = 135 g

Heat (Q) gained = 9133 J

Specific heat capacity (C) of substance =?

Q = MCΔT

9133 = 135 × C × 75

9133 = 10125 × C

Divide both side by 10125

C = 9133 / 10125

C = 0.902 J/gºC

Thus, the specific heat capacity of substance is 0.902 J/gºC

Comparing the specific heat capacity (i.e 0.902 J/gºC) of substance to those given in the table above, we can see clearly that the unknown substance is aluminum.

Discuss the phase change condition due to reflection of light from a surface. Summarize equations of interference for thin film.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

if this surface has a higher index than in the medium where the light travels, the reflected wave has a phase change of 180º

Explanation:

When a ray of light falls on a surface if this surface has a higher index than in the medium where the light travels, the reflected wave has a phase change of 180º this can be explained by Newton's third law, the light when arriving pushes the atoms of the medium that is more dense, and these atoms respond with a force of equal magnitude, but in the opposite direction.

When the fractional index is lower than that of the medium where the reflacted beam travels, notice a change in phase.

Also, when light penetrates the medium, it modifies its wavelength

              λ = λ₀ / n

We take these two aspects into account, the condition for contributory interference is

            d sin θ = (m + 1/2) λ

for destructive interference we have

            d sin θ = m λ

in general this phenomenon is observed at 90º

           2 d = (m +1/2) λ° / n

          2nd = (m + ½) λ₀

A projectile is launched at ground level with an initial speed of 54.5 m/s at an angle of 35.0° above the horizontal. It strikes
Alchen [17]
<h2>Answer: x=125m, y=48.308m</h2>

Explanation:

This situation is a good example of the projectile motion or parabolic motion, in which we have two components: x-component and y-component. Being their main equations to find the position as follows:

x-component:

x=V_{o}cos\theta t   (1)

Where:

V_{o}=54.5m/s is the projectile's initial speed

\theta=35\° is the angle

t=2.80s is the time since the projectile is launched until it strikes the target

x  is the final horizontal position of the projectile (the value we want to find)

y-component:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}   (2)

Where:

y_{o}=0  is the initial height of the projectile (we are told it  was launched at ground level)

y  is the final height of the projectile (the value we want to find)

g=9.8m/s^{2}  is the acceleration due gravity

Having this clear, let's begin with x (1):

x=(54.5m/s)cos(35\°)(2.8s)   (3)

x=125m   (4)  This is the horizontal final position of the projectile

For y (2):

y=0+(54.5m/s)sin(35\°)(2.8s)-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})(2.8s)^{2}}{2}   (5)

y=48.308m   (6)  This is the vertical final position of the projectile
