i think it is A-it does not consist of matter

Alpha radiation consists of fast-moving helium particles, and Beta radiation consists of electrons. Although helium particles are tiny, and electrons even tinier, these still consistent matter. Alpha and Beta waves consist of matter.

Gamma radiation consists of pure energy in the form of electromagnetic rays, and therefore do not consist of matter. 

The answer is A) It does not consist of matter

Answer:

The charge flows in coulombs is

dq=1.843x10^{-5}C

Explanation:

The current magnitude of current is given by the resistance and the induced Emf as:

I=N*\frac{dF}{Rdt}

\frac{dq}{dt}=\frac{dF}{Rdt}=dq=N*\frac{dF}{R}

dq=\frac{N*\beta*A*(Cos(\alpha_f)-Cos(\alpha_i}{R}

N=1300, \beta=0.703, A=\pi*r^2=\pi*0.10^2=0.01\pi m^2, R=99.4+202=301.4Ω

\alpha_f=14.6,\alpha_i=165.4

Replacing :

dq=\frac{1300*0.703x10^{-4}*0.01\pi*(0.9667-(-0.9667))}{202+99.4}

dq=1.843x10^{-5}C

With the switch closed, how does the voltage across the 20-ω resistor compare to the voltage across the 10-ω resistor?
jasenka [17]
In electricity, the most famous and basic equation is the Ohm's Law which relates the parameters voltage, current and resistance. One form of this law as written in equation is V = IR, where V is the voltage in volts, I is the current in amperes and R is the resistance in ohms. These parameters depends in the arrangements, whether it's series or parallel.

In a series connection, the voltage is greater across a high-resistance resistor. Therefore, the voltage is much greater for the 20-ohm resistor. However,if it is a parallel circuit, the voltage is just the same for both resistors.

Which of these is an example of a mechanical wave?
OLga [1]
Your answer is A, Ocean Waves- because A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. Ocean waves do just that :)
