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>

A dragster and driver together have mass 931.9 kg . The dragster, starting from rest, attains a speed of 25.7 m/s in 0.57 s. Fin
Mama L [17]

Answer:

45.09 m/s^2

Explanation:

from the question we were given the following parameters

mass = 931.9 kg

initial velocity (V1) = 0 m/s ( since it started from rest )

final velocity (V2) = 25.7 m/s

time (t) = 0.57 s

The average acceleration is given by:

a = ( V2 - V1 ) / t

therefore

a = (25.7 - 0) / 0.57 = 45.09 m/s^2

HELP! FOR A TEST!
Sati [7]

Answer:

<h3>On a velocity vs time graph the slope of the line represents the acceleration of the object. With a slope of zero, the object is moving at a constant velocity in the positive (+) direction during this five minute interval. ... Displacement and distance can both be determine on a velocity vs.</h3>

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The the speed of the car is 26.91 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

distance d = 88 m

Kinetic friction = 0.42

We need to calculate the the speed of the car

Using  the work-energy principle

work done = change in kinetic energy

W=\Delta K.E

\mu\ mg\times d=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v^2=2\mu g d

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{2\times0.42\times9.8\times88}

v=26.91\ m/s

Hence, The the speed of the car is 26.91 m/s.
