1) Radioactive decay is the spontaneous decomposition of the unstable nucleus of an atom.

2) The emission of a particle or a photon.

For example, alpha decay is radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus).

3) The result is usually more stable element with smaller atomic number.

For example, in alpha decay atom transforms into an atom with an atomic number that is reduced by two and mass number that is reduced by four.

For example nuclear fission is radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts and huge amount of energy is released.

How did the Battle of Midway change the war in the Pacific?
Len [333]

Answer:

Among the options shown here:

American forces began attacking Japanese bases.

Explanation:

The Battle of Midway, fought between June 3-6, 1942, broke the power and sensibly damaged the operational capacity of the Japanese Navy. All the four Japanese aircraft carriers were destroyed by American pilots. The carriers have been the most strategic warships in modern naval warfare since WWII.

The Japanese command attempted to gain naval and air superiority in the Pacific by delivering a blow to American air force and Navy in Midway. However, their plans were soured and instead, Japan´s Imperial Navy suffered a crushing defeat: it lost 3,000 men, 300 airplanes and over 200 hundred of its best pilots, a heavy cruiser and its four carriers. The American losses were inferior, including a carrier. Japan lost its ability to expand in the Pacific and since then it fought the war on the defensive.
