Uranium-238 eventually decays into

1 answer:

4 0

Uranium-238 decays by alpha emission into thorium-234, which itself decays by beta emission to protactinium-234, which decays by beta emission to uranium-234, and so on. The various decay products, (sometimes referred to as “progeny” or “daughters”) form a series starting at uranium-238.

A robot is exploring charon, the dwarf planet pluto's largest moon. Gravity on charon is 0.278 meters per second [m divided b

DochEvi [55]

In order to find the efficiency first we will find the Change in Potential energy of the small stone that robot picked up

First we will find the mass of the stone

As it is given that stone is spherical in shape so first we will find its volume

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi *(\frac{0.06}{2})^3$

$V = 1.13 * 10^{-4} m^3$

Now it is given that it's specific gravity is 10.8

So density of rock is

$\rho = 10.8 * 10^3 kg/m^3$

mass of the stone will be

$m = \rho V$

$m = 10.8* 10^3 * 1.13 * 10^{-4}$

$m = 1.22 kg$

now change in potential energy is given as

$\Delta U = mgH$

here

g = gravity on planet = 0.278 m/s^2

H = height lifted upwards = 15 cm

$\Delta U = 1.22* 0.278 * 0.15$

$\Delta U = 0.051 J$

Now energy supplied by internal circuit of robot is given by

$E = Vit$

V = voltage supplied = 10 V

i = current = 1.83 mA

t = time = 12 s

$E = 10* 1.83 * 10^{-3} * 12$

$E = 0.22 J$

Now efficiency is defined as the ratio of output work with given amount of energy used

$\eta = \frac{\Delta U}{E}*100$

$\eta = \frac{0.051}{0.22} = 0.23$

so efficiency will be 23 %

Sam, whose mass is 75 kg , takes off across level snow on his jet-powered skis. The skis have a thrust of 160 N and a coefficien

Volgvan

Answer:

top speed = 17.25

Total height = 281.19 m

Explanation:

given data

mass = 75 kg

thrust = 160 N

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.1

solution

we get here frictional force acting that is

frictional force = $\mu *m*g$ .............1

frictional force = 0.1 × 75 × 9.8

frictional force = 73.5 N

and

Net force acting will be F = 160 - 73.5 N

F = 86.5 N

Acceleration in the First 15 second will be

F = ma .........2

86.5 = 75 × a

a = 1.15 m/s²

and

now After 15 second the velocity will be as

v = u + at ..........3

here u is 0

so v will be

V = 1.15 × 15

v = 17.25

and

now we get travels distance S in 15 s

s = u × t + 0.5 × a × t²

here u is 0

so distance s will be

s = 0.5 × a × t²

s = 0.5 × 1.15 × 15²

s = 129.37 m

and

now acceleration acting is

F = $\mu *m*g$

m a = $\mu *m*g$

a = $\mu* g$

a = - 0.98

here it is negative it mean downward nature of acceleration

and

now we get distance s by this formula

V² - u² = 2 a s

here v velocity is 0 and

u initial velocity is 17.25 m/s

put here value

0 - 17.25² = 2 × (-0.98) × s

solve it we get

s = 151.82 m

Total height is

Total height = 129.37 m + 151.82 m

Total height = 281.19 m

If a town was 90 miles away and you travel at 45 mph how long would it take to get there

notka56 [123]

Answer:

t = 2 hours

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance of the town, d = 90 miles

Speed, v = 45 mph

We need to find the time to get there. The speed of an object is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

Where

t is time

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{90}{45}\\\\t=2\ h$

So, the required time is 2 hours.
