Answer:

The correct answer is a = alpha particle

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

An alpha particle is a particle formed by two neutrons and two protons, so its charge is positive.

A beta particle is a high energy electron, so its charge is negative.

A gamma radiation is a radiation composed of photons.

In this case, the correct answer is a = alpha particle

Alpha particle is the type of radiation that is emitted when polonium - 212 forms from lead - 208. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "A". An alpha particle is basically a combination of two protons and two neutrons. I hope the answer has helped you.

Freezing Point Depression: Can someone explain this formula to me? ΔTf = Kfcm
Leya [2.2K]
If the solution is treated as an ideal solution, the extent of freezing point depression depends only on the solute concentration that can be estimated by a simple linear relationship with the cryoscopic constant: ΔTF = KF · m · i ΔTF, the freezing point depression, is defined as TF (pure solvent) - TF (solution). KF, the cryoscopic constant, which is dependent on the properties of the solvent, not the solute. Note: When conducting experiments, a higher KF value makes it easier to observe larger drops in the freezing point. For water, KF = 1.853 K·kg/mol.[1] m is the molality (mol solute per kg of solvent) i is the van 't Hoff factor (number of solute particles per mol, e.g. i = 2 for NaCl).

What is the surface area to volume ratio of this cube
tamaranim1 [39]

I can't see that cube from here.

But if the length of the side of the cube is ' K ' units,
then the surface area of the cube is  6K² units², and
the volume of the cube is  K³ units³.

The ratio of the surface area to the volume is

               (6K² units²) / (K³ units³)  =  (6) / (K units) .

So for example, if the side of the cube is 2 inches, then
the ratio of surface area to volume is  "3 per inch".

That's the answer.  I did the whole thing in order to earn
the points, but I don't expect you to understand much of it,
because I see from your username that you suck at math.
I'm sorry you decided that.  Now that you've put up the
brick wall, it'll be even harder for any math to find its way
in there, and you'll miss out on a lot of the fun.

.You have always been impressed by the speed of the elevators in your apartment building. You wonder about the maximum accelerat
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

5.51 m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial scale reading = 50 kg  

assume the greatest scale reading = 78.09 kg

<u>Determine the maximum acceleration for these elevators</u>

At rest the weight is = 50 kg

Weight ( F ) = mg = 50 * 9.81 = 490.5 N<u> </u>

<u> </u>At the 10th floor weight = 78.09 kg

Weight at 10th floor ( F ) = 78.09 * 9.81 = 766.11 N

F = change in weight

Change in weight( F ) = ma = 766.11 - 490.5 (we will take the mass as the starting mass as that mass is calculated when the body is at rest)

50 * a = 275.61

Hence the maximum acceleration ( a ) = 275.61 / 50 = 5.51 m/s^2

A client is undergoing diagnostics for an alteration in thyroid function. What physiologic function is affected by altered thyro
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland that sits low on the front of the neck.It plays a major role in the metabolism, growth and development of the human body

Explanation:

The physiologic function affected by altered thyroid function are:

1. It is likely that all cells in the body are targets for thyroid hormones

2. It stimulates diverse metabolic activities most tissues, leading to an increase in basal metabolic rate

3. Thyroid hormones are clearly necessary for normal growth

Thyroid hormones increases heart rate, cardiac contractility and cardiac output. They also promote vasodilation (widening of blood vessels), which leads to enhanced blood flow to many organs. Central nervous system: Both decreased and increased concentrations of thyroid hormones lead to alterations in mental state.

There do not seem to be organs and tissues that are not affected by thyroid hormones
