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.

94. The diagram shows the orbit of a satellite
Valentin [98]

Answer:

7.65x10^3 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the satellite's orbital speed is shown below:

Given that

Earth mass, M_e = 5.97 × 10^24 kg

Gravitational constant, G = 6.67 × 10^-11 N·m^2/kg

Orbital radius, r = 6.80 × 10^6m

Based on the above information

the satellite's orbital speed is

V_o = √GM_e ÷ √r

= √6.67 × 10^-11 × 5.97 × 10^24 ÷ √6.80 × 10^6

=  7.65x10^3 m/s

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Time : <u>7.96 s</u>

Distance Traveled : <u>357.8 m</u>  

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we first consider the accelerated motion of rocket. We will be using the subscript 1 for accelerated motion.

So, for accelerated motion, we have:

Acceleration = a₁ = 14.5 m/s²

Time Period = t₁ = 3.1 s

Initial Velocity = Vi₁ = 0 m/s    (Since, it starts from rest)

Final Velocity = Vf₁

Distance covered by sled during acceleration motion = s₁

Now, using 1st equation of motion:

Vf₁ = Vi₁ + (a₁)(t₁)

Vf₁ = 0 m/s + (14.5 m/s²)(3.1 s)

Vf₁ = 44.95 m/s

Now, using 2nd equation of motion:

s₁ = (Vi₁)(t) + (0.5)(a₁)(t₁)

s₁ = (0 m/s)(3.1 s) + (0.5)(14.5 m/s²)(3.1 s)

s₁ = 22.5 m

Now, we first consider the decelerated motion of rocket. We will be using the subscript 2 for decelerated motion.

So, for accelerated motion, we have:

Deceleration = a₂ = - 5.65 m/s²

Time Period = t₂ = ?

Initial Velocity = Vi₂ = Vf₁ = 44.95 m/s    (Since, decelerate motion starts, where accelerated motion ends)

Final Velocity = Vf₂ = 0 m/s    (Since, rocket will eventually stop)

Distance covered by sled during deceleration motion = s₂

Now, using 1st equation of motion:

Vf₂ = Vi₂ + (a₂)(t₂)

0 m/s = 44.95 m/s + (- 5.65 m/s²)(t₂)

t₂ = (44.95 m/s)/(5.65 m/s²)

<u>t₂ = 7.96 s</u>

Now, using 2nd equation of motion:

s₂ = (Vi₂)(t₂) + (0.5)(a₂)(t₂)

s₂ = (44.95 m/s)(7.96 s) + (0.5)(- 5.65 m/s²)(7.96 s)

s₂ = 357.8 m - 22.5 m

s₂ = 335.3 m

Thus, the total distance covered by sled will be:

Total Dustance = S = s₁ + s₂

S = 22.5 m + 335.3 m

<u>S = 357.8 m</u>

The time that an object takes to complete its orbit once around the sun
Naya [18.7K]

The farther away an object is from the Sun the slower it orbits around it. The closer an object is from the Sun the faster it orbits around it.
