Answer:

Hope it helps

Explanation:

The inner core is solid, the outer core is liquid, and the mantle is solid/plastic. This is due to the relative melting points of the different layers (nickel–iron core, silicate crust and mantle) and the increase in temperature and pressure as depth increases

The carbon isotope 14C is used for carbon dating of archeological artifacts. 14C(mass 2.34×10−26kg) decays by the process known

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

2240.92365 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of electron = $9.11\times 10^{−31}\ kg$

$v_1$ = Speed of electron = $5.7\times 10^7\ m/s$

$p_2$ = Neutrino has a momentum = $7.3\times 10^{-24}\ kg m/s$

M = total mass = $2.34\times 10^{-26}\ kg$

In the x axis as the momentum is conserved

$Mv_x=m_1v_1\\\Rightarrow v_x=\dfrac{m_1v_1}{M}\\\Rightarrow v_x=\dfrac{9.11\times 10^{−31}\times 5.7\times 10^7}{2.34\times 10^{-26}}\\\Rightarrow v_x=2219.10256\ m/s$

In the y axis

$Mv_y=p_2\\\Rightarrow v_y=\dfrac{p_2}{M}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\dfrac{7.3\times 10^{-24}}{2.34\times 10^{-26}}\\\Rightarrow v_y=311.96581\ m/s$

The resultant velocity is

$R=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{2219.10256^2+311.96581^2}\\\Rightarrow R=2240.92365\ m/s$

The recoil speed of the nucleus is 2240.92365 m/s

natita [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

She's correct but doesn't mean the wagon cannot put into motion. The force that she applied on the wagon, according to Newton's 2nd law, would have generated an acceleration, which translates into motion. The reaction force the wagon applies on her due to Newton's 3rd law, would not hinder its own motion.

A ball is thrown upward at a 45° angle. Inthe absence of air resistance, the ballfollows aA. tangential curve.B. sine curve.C. p

Evgesh-ka [11]

As ball is projected up in air at an angle of 45 degree without any air resistance

Let the initial speed will be v

now we will have

In x direction

$v_x = v cos45$

in y direction

$v_y = vsin45$

now displacement in x direction

$x = (vcos45)t + 0$

displacement in y direction

$y = (vsin45)t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

now from above two equations we have

$y = (vsin45)\frac{x}{vcos45} - \frac{1}{2}g(\frac{x}{vcos45})^2$

$y = xtan45 - \frac{1}{2v^2cos^245}gx^2$

so above equation is a quadratic equation and hence it will be a parabolic curve

so correct answer will be

<em>C. parabolic curve.</em>

Explaining How Momentum Can Cause

Ghella [55]

Answer:

The astronaut can throw the hammer in a direction away from the space station. While he is holding the hammer, the total momentum of the astronaut and hammer is 0 kg • m/s. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum after he throws the hammer must still be 0 kg • m/s. In order for momentum to be conserved, the astronaut will have to move in the opposite direction of the hammer, which will be toward the space station.
