In an alpha decay, an atom emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons: this means that during this kind of decay, the original atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons from its nucleus.
This also means that the atomic number Z of the element (the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus) decreases by 2 units in the process, while the mass number A (the mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons) decreases by 4 units.
The figure is showing a volume of 2.4 mL becuase it's feel 4 little segments.
Therefore, the answer is 2.4 mL.
Answer:
At point A, the cart has high potential energy. At point b, the cart is pulled down by gravity. At point c, the cart gains its highest kinetic energy. At point d, the cart returns back to the same state but with lower potential energy.
The 'formulas' to use are just the definitions of 'power' and 'work':
Power = (work done) / (time to do the work)
and
Work = (force) x (distance) .
Combine these into one. Take the definition of 'Work', and write it in place of 'work' in the definition of power.
Power = (force x distance) / (time)
From the sheet, we know the power, the distance, and the time. So we can use this one formula to find the force.
Power = (force x distance) / (time)
Multiply each side by (time): (Power) x (time) = (force) x (distance)
Divide each side by (distance): Force = (power x time) / (distance).
Look how neat, clean, and simple that is !
Force = (13.3 watts) x (3 seconds) / (4 meters)
Force = (13.3 x 3 / 4) (watt-seconds / meter)
Force = 39.9/4 (joules/meter)
<em>Force = 9.975 Newtons</em>
Is that awesome or what !
Answer:
The shadow will appear dark
Explanation:
Your shadow is caused by your body blocking incident light rays from reach the ground under the shadow area. The absence of light means there will be no light reflected from the ground making it appear dark.
