Let height of twin falls = x
height of seven falls = 2.5x

x + 2.5x = 420
3.5x = 420
x = 420/3.5 = 120

so twin falls = x = 120 ft
seven falls = 2.5x = 300 ft

Describe two reasons why an alpha particle is less penetrating than a beta or gamma particle.
uysha [10]
Alpha particles travel through the air they collide with oxygen and nitrogen molecules. While they collide with these molecules, they lose some energy until all energy are used up and they are absorbed. These particles can be absorbed by a sheet of paper or by the air. On the other hand, beta particles and gamma particles move faster than the alpha particles and are poor at ionizing atoms or molecules thus it takes more of the material to be able to absorb these particles.

Sarah, whose mass is 40 kg, is on her way to school after a winter storm when she accidentally slips on a patch of ice whose coe
RideAnS [48]

Sarah's acceleration is -0.49 m/s^2

Explanation:

The force of kinetic friction acting on Sarah has a magnitude which is given by:

F_f = \mu mg

where

\mu is the coefficient of kinetic friction

m is Sarah's mass

g is the acceleration of gravity

Moreover, according to Newton's second law of motion, we know that the net force on Sarah is equal to its mass times its acceleration:

F=ma

where a is the acceleration

Since the force of friction is the only force acting on Sarah, we can say that the net force is equal to the force of friction, therefore:

F=-\mu mg = ma

where the negative sign is due to the fact that the force of friction has a direction opposite to the motion of Sarah. Solving for a, we find

a=-\mu g

And substituting the following values:

\mu = 0.05 (coefficient of friction)

g=9.81 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

we find:

a=-(0.05)(9.81)=-0.49 m/s^2
