Gamma rays<span> are </span>produced<span> in the disintegration of radioactive atomic nuclei and in the decay of certain subatomic particles. When an unstable atomic nucleus decays into a more stable nucleus, the “daughter” nucleus is sometimes </span>produced<span> in an excited state.</span>

A well is being dug. A 4.5-kg bucket is filled with 28.0 kg of dirt and pulled vertically upward at a constant speed through a d

andreyandreev [35.5K]

The work done on the filled bucket in raising out of the hole is 2, 925 Joules

<h3>How to determine the work done</h3>

Using the formula:

Work done = force * distance

Note that force = mass * acceleration

F = mg + ma

F = 4. 5 * 10 + 28 * 10

F = 45 + 280

F = 325 Newton

Distance = 9m

Substitute into formula

Work done = 325 * 9

Work done = 2, 925 Joules

Therefore, the work done is 2, 925 Joules

The human ear canal is about 2.9 cm long and can be regarded as a tube open at one end and closed at the eardrum. What is the fu

solniwko [45]

The frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

Explanation:

As the ear canal is like a tube with open at one end, the wavelength of sound passing through this tube will propagate 4 times its length of the tube. So wavelength of the sound wave will be equal to four times the length of the tube. Then the frequency can be easily determined by finding the ratio of velocity of sound to wavelength. As the velocity of sound is given as 339 m/s, then the wavelength of the sound wave propagating through the ear canal is

Wavelength=4*Length of the ear canal

As length of the ear canal is given as 2.9 cm, it should be converted into meter as follows:

$wavelength = 4*2.9*10^{-2} =0.116$

Then the frequency is determined as

f=c/λ=339/0.116=2922 Hz=2.92 kHz.

So, the frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

PLEASE HELP!!! GIVING BRAINLIEST!! ill also answer questions that you have posted if you answer this correctly!!!! (60pts)

mr Goodwill [35]

The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance. An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.
So since the boat has a lower density than the water, it will float.
So the answer is choice B

For a standard production car, the highest road-tested acceleration ever reported occurred in 1993, when a Ford RS200 Evolution

Ann [662]

Answer:

a = 8.06 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of this car can be found using the first equation of motion:

$v_f = v_i + at\\\\a = \frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

where,

a = acceleration = ?

vf = final speed = 26.8 m/s

vi = initial speed = 0 m/s

t = time = 3.323 s

Therefore,

$a = \frac{26.8\ m/s-0\ m/s}{3.323\ s}$
