Which change occurs when an atom undergoes decay?

Physics
1 answer:
Alina [70]3 years ago
6 0
<span>When an atom undergoes decay its nucleus becomes unstable because it does not have a balance of neurons and protons. This means the atoms try to find a confirmation in which it is stable. In doing so, it is possible that the atom changes its element, and it frees a huge amount of energy in order to balance itself. This is the base of radioactivity.</span>

An arrow of mass 20 g is shot horizontally into a bale of hay, striking the hay with a velocity of 60 m/s. It penetrates a depth
goblinko [34]

From the question, The kinetic energy of the fired arrow is equal to the work done by the bale of hale in stopping the arrow.

We make use of the following formula

mv²/2 = F'd................... Equation 1

Where

  • m = mass of the arrow
  • v = velocity of the arrow
  • F' = average stopping force acting on the arrow
  • d = distance of penetration

Make F' the subject of the equation

F' = mv²/2d.................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 20 g = 0.02 kg
  • v = 60 m/s
  • d = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • F' = 0.02(60²)/(0.4×2)
  • F' = 72/0.8
  • F' = 90 N

Hence, The average stopping force acting on the arrow is 90 N
