stealth61 [152]3 years ago
5 0
It would be the u<span>ranium-238 which is among the most commonly used radioisotope as a tracer in the process of nuclear scanning. In addition, the technique is of much significance in the field of medicine because it is commonly used in diagnosing and treatment of diseases most especially the cancer cells.</span>

The pressure of a sample of helium is 1.556 atm in a 268.5 mL container. If the container is compressed to 112.4 mL without chan
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

a.  3.72 [atm]

Explanation:

For a gas at constant temperature, (with no change in number of molecules of the gas), we can apply Boyle's Law:  P_1V_1=P_2V_2

(1.556[atm])(268.5[mL])=P_2(112.4[mL])

\dfrac{(1.556[atm])(268.5[mL\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{--}])}{112.4[mL \!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{--}]}=\dfrac{P_2(112.4[mL]\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{-----})}{112.4[mL]\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{-----}}

3.716957[atm]=P_2

It seems like the answer should have 4 significant figures since all of the other quantities have 4 significant figures, but the closest answer choice of those provided is a.  3.72

"A bicycle's brakes apply 299 N of frictional force to the wheels as the bike moves 24 m
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

0.62 N

Explanation:

first of all: 3.0 s = 0.05 m

Let ? be the work that brakes do at 3.0s

24 m ----> 299 N

0.05 m ---->?

? = (0.05 m x 299 N)/ 24

? = (14.95)/ 24

? = 0.622 N

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

₉₂U²³⁸   →   ₉₀Th²³⁴  + ₂He⁴  

Explanation:

Alpha beta and gamma radiations are the examples of ionizing radiations. When an atom is an excited state and having high energy, the atom is in unstable state. The excess of energy is released by the atom to get the stability. The released energy is in the form of radiations which may include alpha, beta, gamma, X-ray etc.

Alpha decay:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4  and atomic number less than 2 as compared to parent atom the starting atom.

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

₉₂U²³⁸   →   ₉₀Th²³⁴  + ₂He⁴
