The correct answer is option A.

The Gamma waves emitted from radioactive decay have a frequency of around 10¹⁹ Hz, which is much greater compared to the alpha of beta waves.

The frequency is directly proportional to the energy of the waves as given by the equation,

$E=hf$

Where E is the energy, h is the Planck's constant, and f is the frequency.

Thus the gamma waves have a lot of energy compared to the other options.

Thus the correct answer is option A.

Find the net work W done on the particle by the external forces during the motion of the particle in terms of the initial and fi

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

$W=K_f-K_i$

Explanation:

The work done on a particle by external forces is defined as:

$W=\int\limits^{r_f}_{r_i} {F\cdot dr} \,$

According to Newton's second law $F=ma$ . Thus:

$W=\int\limits^{r_f}_{r_i}{ma\cdot dr} \,\\$

Acceleration is defined as the derivative of the speed with respect to time:

$W=m\int\limits^{r_f}_{r_i}{\frac{dv}{dt}\cdot dr} \,\\\\W=m\int\limits^{r_f}_{r_i}{dv \cdot \frac{dr}{dt}} \,$

Speed is defined as the derivative of the position with respect to time:

$W=m\int\limits^{v_f}_{v_i} v \cdot dv \,$

Kinetic energy is defined as $K=\frac{mv^2}{2}$ :

$W=m\frac{v_f^2}{2}-m\frac{v_i^2}{2}\\W=K_f-K_i$

Four different resistors have various amounts of electric current flowing through them. Given the values of current I and resist

Artemon [7]

You did not provide the options. However, the options are

I = 6.0, R= 4.0 ohms

I = 9.0, R= 2.0ohms

I = 3.0, R= 2.0ohms

I = 8.0, R= 8.0 ohms

Answer:

The order of the resistors from the highest to the lowest is:

I = 8.0, R= 8.0 ohms

I = 6.0, R= 4.0 ohms

I = 9.0, R= 2.0ohms

I = 3.0, R= 2.0 ohms

Explanation:

ohm's law states that voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it. V = IR

Based on this formula, the voltages in each of the resistors are calculated below from the highest to the lowest

For I = 8.0, R= 8.0 ohms

V = 8 * 8 =64 volts

For I = 6.0, R= 4.0 ohms

V = 6 * 4 =24 volts

For I = 9.0, R= 2.0 ohms

V = 9 * 2 =18 volts

For I = 3.0, R= 2.0 ohms

V = 3 * 2 =6 volts

A car drives around a curve with radius 400 m at a speed of 32 m/s. The road is banked at 7.0 degree. The mass of the car is 150

Ronch [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the centripetal force to make the turn is 3,840 N.

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the cured road, r = 400 m

speed of the car, v = 32 m/s

mass of the car, m = 1500 kg

The magnitude of the centripetal force to make the turn is given as;

$F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

where;

Fc is the centripetal force

$F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\F_c = \frac{(1500)(32)^2}{400}\\\\F_c = 3,840 \ N$

Therefore, the magnitude of the centripetal force to make the turn is 3,840 N.
