The correct choice is

A) rifling

Rifling is a pattern of sequence of raised and recessed portions. These raised portions are known as lands and recessed portions as grooves. these lands and grooves helps in providing spin to the bullet as it is fired. This spin makes the bullet to penetrate deeper into the target and cause severe damage.

It's called rifling, to stabilise the bullet.

Answer:

The torque produced by the pile of rocks is $\tau = 35.63\ N \cdot m$

The distance of the single for equilibrium to occur is $r_s =1.62 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the left rock is $m_s = 2.25 \ kg$

The mass of the rock on the right $m_p = 10.1 kg$

The distance from fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks is $r_p = 0.360 \ m$

Generally the torque produced by the pile of rock is mathematically represented as

$\tau = m_p * g * r_p$

Substituting values

$\tau = 10.1 * 9.8 * 0.360$

$\tau = 35.63\ N \cdot m$

Generally we can mathematically evaluated the distance of the the single rock that would put the system in equilibrium as follows

The torque due to the single rock is

$\tau = m_s * g * r_s$

At equilibrium the both torque are equal

$35.63 = m_s * r_s * g$

Making $r_s$ the subject of the formula

$r_s = \frac{35.63 }{m_s * g}$

Substituting values

$r_s = \frac{35.63 }{2.25 * 9.8}$

$r_s =1.62 \ m$

Why are some atoms radioactive

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Atoms are made of three types of sub-atomic particle: neutrons and protons in the nucleus and electrons orbiting the nucleus. Some materials are radioactive because the nucleus of each atom is unstable and gives out nuclear radiation in the form of alpha particles, beta particles or gamma rays.
