Two children are balanced on a seesaw that has a mass of 18.0 kg. The first child has a mass of 26.0 kg and sits 1.60 m from the
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

1.28 m

Explanation:

As shown in the diagram attached,

According to the principle of moment,

For a body at equilibrium,

Sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment.

Taking moment about the pivot,

W₁(1.6)+W(0.133) = W₂(x)............... Equation 1

Where W₁ = Weight of the first child, Wₓ = Weight of the seesaw, W₂ = weight of the second child, x = distance of the second child from the pivot.

But,

W = mg

Where g = 9.8 m/s², m = mass of the body

Therefore,

W₁ = 26×9.8 = 254.8 N,

Wₓ = 18×9.8 = 176.4 N

W₂ = 34.4×9.8 = 337.12 N

Substitute these values into equation 1

(254.8×1.6)+(176.4×0.133) = 337.12(x)

407.68+23.4612 = 337.12x

337.12x = 431.1412

x = 431.1412/337.12

x = 1.2789

x ≈ 1.28 m

What region of the spectrum best corresponds to light with a wavelength equal to:_____ a. The diameter of a hydrogen atomb. The
zavuch27 [327]

We will make the comparison between each of the sizes against the known wavelengths.

In the case of the <em>hydrogen atom</em>, we know that this is equivalent to 10^{-10} m on average, which corresponds to the wavelength corresponding to X-rays.

In the case of the <em>Virus</em> we know that it is oscillating in a size of 30nm to 200 nm, so the size of the virus is equivalent to the range of the wavelength of an ultraviolet ray.

In the case of <em>height</em>, it fluctuates in a person around 10 ^ 0 to 10 ^ 1 m, which falls to the wavelength of a radio wave.

Suppose there are 100,000 atoms of a radioactive substance that has a ½ life of 10 minutes. How many atoms will remain after 40
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

c. 12,500

Explanation:

Original number of atoms = 100,000 atoms

Half- life  = 10min

Unknown:

The number of atoms that will remain after 10min  = ?

Solution:

The half - life is the time taken for half of a radioactive substance to decay by half.

    Time taken        Number of atom   half life

           10min             100000                   _

           20min             50000                    1

           30min             25000                    2

           40min              12500                     3
