The presence of helium gas indicates the radioactive sample is most likely decaying by α-decay, or alpha decay. α-decay is the type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits α particles. α particles are Helium nuclei. So the correct answer would be α-decay.

The speed that a tsunami can travel is modeled by the equation , where s is the speed in kilometers per hour and d is the averag
Goshia [24]

0.32 km

How to reach the answer:

The formula below provides the tsunami's speed in response to the query.

s = 356√d

when the tsunami's speed is 200 km/h, the equation's "s" is changed to "200," and the equation of speed is then expressed as follows.

200 = 356√d

The equation can be changed to compute the depth of the water as,

√d = 200÷356

√d = 0.562

Now on squaring both sides:

(√d)² = (0.562)²

d = (0.562)² = 0.316 or 0.32

Therefore the approximate depth of water for a tsunami travelling at 200km/h is 0.32 km

You need to get to class, which is 282 meters away. You can only walk in the hallway at about 2.0 m/s (if you go any faster, you
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Time, t = 141 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the class and the person, d = 282 m

Speed of the person, v = 2 m/s

We need to find the time taken by the person to get to your class. Let the time taken is t. The speed of the person is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{282\ m}{2\ m/s}

t = 141 seconds

So, the time taken by the person to get to your class is 141 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

The driver of a car traveling at a speed of 27 m/s slams on the brakes and comes to a stop in 3 s. If we assume that the speed c
NISA [10]

Answer:

Average speed = 13.5 m/s

Explanation:

Since the car is running at a speed of 27 m/s  and it stops after 3 seconds by applying the brake. Therefore, the initial speed of the 27 m/s and final speed is 0.

Use below formula to find the average speed :

Average speed = (Initial speed + final speed ) / 2  

Average speed = (27 + 0 ) / 2

Average speed = 13.5 m/s
