Answer:

Explanation:

The half life of a radioactive substance is the time in which the activity of the radioactive substance becomes half of its initial activity.

Or

The time in which the amount of radioactive substance becomes half of its initial amount in a sample.

It is denoted by T .

The relation between the decay constant and the half life is given by

\lambda =\frac{0.693}{T}

Based on what you learn about jovian moons by watching the videos or reading your textbook, what types of evidence for recent or
Valentin [98]

Answer:

b. craters, river valleys feeding into surface lakes of very cold liquids

Explanation:

  • Jovian moons are the four largest satellites like the moon of the Jupiter ie the Lo, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto and were first seen by the galileo. They are amiugly the largest moons with radii larger than the dwarf planet.  
  • Lo has more than 400 active volcanoes and dotted more than 100 mountains and has an extremely thin atmosphere made up of sulfur dioxide. The Europa has deep oceans of liquid water, and the layer of ice, and are characteristic of the tidal heating.  
  • <u>While the surface of Callisto is heavily cratered and has salty liquid water.</u>

An internal explosion breaks an object, initially at rest, into two pieces: A and B. Piece A has 1.9 times the mass of piece B.
Helen [10]

Kinetic energy of pieces A and B are 2724 Joule and 5176 Joule respectively.

<h3>What is the relation between the masses of A and B?</h3>
  • Let mass of piece A = Ma

Mass of piece B = Mb

  • Velocities of pieces A and B are Va and Vb respectively.
  • As per conservation of momentum,

Ma×Va = Mb×Vb

  • Here, Ma=1.9Mb

So, 1.9Mb × Va = Mb×Vb

=> 1.9Va = Vb

<h3>What are the kinetic energy of piece A and B?</h3>
  • Expression of kinetic energy of piece A = 1/2 × Ma × Va²
  • Kinetic energy of piece B = 1/2 × Mb × Vb²
  • Total kinetic energy= 7900J

=>1/2 × Ma × Va² + 1/2 × Mb × Vb² = 7900

=> 1/2 × Ma × Va² + 1/2 × (Ma/1.9) × (1.9Va)² = 7900

=> 1/2 × Ma × Va² ×(1+1.9) = 7900 j

=> 1/2 × Ma × Va² = 7900/2.9 = 2724 Joule

  • Kinetic energy of piece B = 7900 - 2724 = 5176 Joule

Thus, we can conclude that the kinetic energy of piece A and B are 2724 Joule and 5176 Joule respectively.

The six statements below represent Newton's three laws of motion and Kepler's three laws of planetary motion. Match each stateme
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

1. Force = mass x acceleration - Newton

2. A planet moves faster in the part of its orbit nearer the Sun and slower when farther from the Sun, sweeping out  equal areas in equal times - Kepler

3. For any force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force - Newton .

4. An object moves at constant velocity if there is no net force acting upon it - Newton

5. The orbit of each planet about the Sun is an ellipse with the Sun at one focus  - Kepler.

6. More distant planets orbit the Sun at slower average speeds, obeying the precise mathematical relationship p2-a3 - Kepler.

Explanation:

The three laws of planetary motion formulated by Johannes Kepler or Kepler's laws of planetary motion:

  1. The first law states that the planets move around the Sun in an elliptical orbit with the Sun at one of the foci.
  2. The second law states that the line segment joining a planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal time.
  3. The third law states that the square of the orbital period (p) of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the mean distance (a) from the Sun (or semi-major axis of its orbit) i.e., p² is proportional to a³.

The three laws of motion formulated by Sir Isaac Newton or Newton's laws of motion:

  1. The first law, also known as the law of inertia states that an object at rest or moves at a constant velocity will remain at rest or keep moving at a constant velocity unless it is acted upon by a force.
  2. The second law states that the total force (F) applied on an object is directly related to the acceleration (a) of that object produced by the applied force and the mass (m) of the object, i.e., F = ma (assuming the mass m is constant).
  3. The third law, also known as the law of action and reaction states that when an object exerts a force on another object, then the latter exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the former object i.e., for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The example includes the recoiling of a gun when it fires a bullet forward.
