Explain how gamma rays are produced by energy

1 answer:

8 0

Gamma rays are produced 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 produced in an excited state.

An unmarked police car traveling a constant 95 km/h is passed by a speeder. Precisely 1.00 s after the speeder passes, the polic

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Speed of the speeder will be 28 m/sec

Explanation:

In first case police car is traveling with a speed of 90 km/hr

We can change 90 km/hr in m/sec

So $90km/hr=\frac{90\times 1000m}{3600sec}=25m/sec$

Car is traveling for 1 sec with a constant speed so distance traveled in 1 sec = 25×1 = 25 m

After that car is accelerating with $a=2m/sec^2$ for 7 sec

So distance traveled by car in these 7 sec

$S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=25\times 7+\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 7^2=224m$

So total distance traveled by police car = 224 m

This distance is also same for speeder

Now let speeder is moving with constant velocity v

so $224=\left ( 1+7 \right )v$

v = 28 m/sec

A satellite is revolving the earth 4km above the surface.find the orbital velocity of the satellite (R =6400km,g=9.8m/s^2)

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

v ≈ 7900 m/s

Explanation:

centripetal force will equal gravity force

mv²/R = mg

v²/R = g

v² = Rg

v = √(Rg)

v = √(6.4e6(9.8))

v = 7.91959...e+3

v ≈ 7900 m/s

of course, at those velocities and that deep into the atmosphere, the satellite would quickly burn up, slow down, and cause tremendous damage to buildings etc. with the sonic boom shock wave. It would also have to avoid a lot of mountains as 4000 m is not that high.

At one point in a pipeline, the water's speed is 3.57 m/s and the gauge pressure is 68.7 kPa. Find the gauge pressure at a secon

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The pressure at point 2 is $P_2 = 254.01 kPa$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed at point 1 is $v_1 = 3.57 \ m/s$

The gauge pressure at point 1 is $P_1 = 68.7kPa = 68.7*10^{3}\ Pa$

The density of water is $\rho = 1000 \ kg/m^3$

Let the height at point 1 be $h_1$ then the height at point two will be

$h_2 = h_1 - 18.5$

Let the diameter at point 1 be $d_1$ then the diameter at point two will be

$d_2 = 2 * d_1$

Now the continuity equation is mathematically represented as

$A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2$

Here $A_1 , A_2$ are the area at point 1 and 2

Now given that the are is directly proportional to the square of the diameter [i.e $A= \frac{\pi d^2}{4}$ ]

which can represent as

$A \ \ \alpha \ \ d^2$

=> $A = c d^2$

where c is a constant

so $\frac{A_1}{d_1^2} = \frac{A_2}{d_2^2}$

=> $\frac{A_1}{d_1^2} = \frac{A_2}{4d_1^2}$

=> $A_2 = 4 A_1$

Now from the continuity equation

$A_1 v_1 = 4 A_1 v_2$

=> $v_2 = \frac{v_1}{4}$

=> $v_2 = \frac{3.57}{4}$

$v_2 = 0.893 \ m/s$

Generally the Bernoulli equation is mathematically represented as

$P_1 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho * g * h_1 = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 + \rho * g * h_2$

$P_2 = \rho * g (h_1 -h_2 )+P_1 + \frac{1}{2} * \rho (v_1^2 -v_2 ^2 )$

=> $P_2 = \rho * g (h_1 -(h_1 -18.3) + P_1 + \frac{1}{2} * \rho (v_1^2 -v_2 ^2 )$

substituting values

$P_2 = 1000 * 9.8 (18.3) )+ 68.7*10^{3} + \frac{1}{2} * 1000 ((3.57)^2 -0.893 ^2 )$

$P_2 = 254.01 kPa$

A spaceship is traveling through deep space towards a space station and needs to make a course correction to go around a nebula.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Magnitude = 3.64 × $10^6$

စ = 43.9°

Explanation:

given data

ship to travel = 1.7 × $10^6$ kilometers

turn = 70°

travel an additional = 2.7 × $10^6$ kilometers

solution

we will consider here

Px = 1.7 × $10^6$

Py = 0

Qx =2.7 × $10^6$ cos(70)

Qy= 2.7 × $10^6$ sin(70)

so that

Hx = Px + Qx ............1

Hx = 2.62 × $10^6$

and

Hy = Py + Qy ..........2

Hy = 2.53 × $10^6$

so Magnitude = $\sqrt{((2.62 \times 10^6 )^2+(2.53 \times 10^6)^2)}$

Magnitude = 3.64 ×

so direction will be

tan စ = Hy ÷ Hx ......................3

tan စ = $\frac{2.53}{2.62}$

tan စ = 0.9656

စ = 43.9°
