Answer:

Fe_{26}^{59} \rightarrow Co_{27}^{59} + e_{-1}^{0}

Step-by-step explanation:

beta particle: e_{-1}^{0}

The option in the answer is the only one which includes a beta particle in the products.

In a beta emission, a neutron is converted to a proton, and the process creates an electron and an electron antineutrino. Here, Fe has 26 protons and 59 - 26 = 33 neutrons, and Co has 27 protons and 59 - 27 = 32 neutrons

Correct question:

Which reaction describes a beta emission?  2659Fe→ 2759Co +  −10e,   88226Ra→ 86222Rn +  24He, 94239Pu +  24He→ 96242Cm  +  01n,  54118Xe→ 53118I +  +10e

Answer:

2659Fe→ 2759Co + 1e

Step-by-step explanation:

General equation for beta decay is given as;

^A_zX -> \ ^A_{z+1}Y +\  ^0_{-1} \beta

where;

A is the atomic mass of the element

z is atomic number of the element

X is the parent atom

Y is the daughter element

β is beta emission

In beta emission, there is loss of one electron and zero proton, the will cause the daughter element to gain on electron in order to balance the reaction.

Based on beta decay equation above, we select the reaction that describes beta emission.

2659Fe→ 2759Co + 1e

Here;

A = 59

z = 26

z + 1 = 27

Prove : ABCD is a parallelogram. (need help fast I will mark you brainiest!)
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Parallelogram = 2 pairs of parallel sides and opposite angles are equal

Triangle BEA and triangle DFC are equivalent by side angle side

Therefore, angle DCF is equivalent to angle BAE

Angles FEB and DFE are right angles due to them being supplementary angles with angles BEA and DFC, respectively.

This means triangles BEC and DFA are equivalent.

This means angles FCB and EAD are equivalent, which means angles BCD and DAB are equivalent.

This also means angles ABC and ADC are equivalent.

Opposite angles equivalent = parallelogram

A shipping container is in the shape of a right rectangular prism with a length of 13.5 feet, a width of 4 feet, and a height of
podryga [215]

Answer: 227 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, the volume of a rectangular prism can be calculated with the following formula:

V=lwh

Where "w" is the width of the rectangular prism, "l" is the length and "h" is the height of the rectangular prism.

In this case you know that:

l=13.5\ ft\\\\w=4\ ft\\\\h= 7.5 ft

Substituting values into the formula, you get that the volume of the shipping container is:

V=(13.5\ ft)(4\ ft)( 7.5 ft)\\\\V=405\ ft^3

You know that it was completely filled with  contents that weigh 0.56 pound per cubic foot, approximately. Then, its density is:

d=0.56\ \frac{lb}{ft^3}

Since:

d=\frac{m}{V}

Where "m" is mass and "V" is volume, you can susbstitute values and solve for "m":

0.56\ \frac{lb}{ft^3}=\frac{m}{405\ ft^3}\\\\(0.56\ \frac{lb}{ft^3})(405\ ft^3)=m\\\\m\approx227\ lb

What parent function has the following applications: profit, gravity, and calculating area?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Suppose that you have a square of side length x, the area of this square will be:

A = x^2.

Now, by dynamics, we know that the position of an object that is falling down from a height H, can be written as:

H(t) = (-g/2)*t^2 + H.

We can see a pattern, x^2 is used in both.

Now, profit can be also modeled with quadratic equations, where our objective is to find the maximum of the quadratic (so we can have the maximum profit)

Then the parent function that is useful for gravity, calculating area and profit is the quadratic function:

f(x) = x^2
