Heavy ions, such as alpha particles, lose kinetic energy as they travel through matter. Consider equation 31.1 or 31.2. Where do

heavy ion lose more kinetic energy?
a. The rate at which they lose energy does not depend on the speed of the ion.
b. When they are traveling at high speeds, just at they enter a medium
c. When they are traveling at low speeds, when they are almost stopped

Answer:

c. When they are traveling at low speeds, when they are almost stopped

Explanation:

The rate at which they ions loose energy depends upon its charge and mass and not on its speed. For example, We know that alpha particles have high mass and high charge so they loose more energy than gamma radiation which has no mass and no charge. The slower heavy particle which has high linear energy transfer.

Hence, when they travel at low speed they are almost stopped.

There the correct answer is option C

A projectile is fired horizontally from a height of 78.4 m at a speed of 300 m/sec. How far did it travel horizontally before hi
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the formula for calculating range expressed as;

R = U√2H/g

U is the speed = 300m/s

H is the maximum height = 78.4m

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Substitute into the fromula;

R = 300√2(78.4)/9.8

R = 300 √(16)

R = 300*4

R = 1200m

Hence the projectile travelled 1200m before hitting the ground

3. A sprinter leaves the starting blocks with an acceleration of 4.5 m/s2. What is the
UkoKoshka [18]

Hi there! :)

\large\boxed{v_{f} = 18 m/s}

Use the following kinematic equation to solve for the final velocity:

v_{f} = v_{i} + at

In this instance, the runner started from rest, so the initial velocity is 0 m/s. We can rewrite the equation as:

v_{f} = at

Plug in the given acceleration and time:

v_{f} = 4.5 * 4 = 18 m/s

Suppose that a ball is released from the window of a train that is moving with constant velocity.  The path of the ball, as obse
barxatty [35]

True, the path of the ball, as observed from the train window, will be a horizontal straight line.

An object projected from a certain height has a parabolic path when observed from a fixed point.

However, if the reference point is moving at the same velocity as the object, the path of the object's motion appears to be a straight line.

When the ball is released from the window of the train, it will move at the same constant velocity as the train, and the path of the ball's motion observed from the train window will be a straight line.

Thus, we can conclude that the given statement is true. The path of the ball, as observed from the train window, will be a horizontal straight line.

Enter the expression
vlabodo [156]
I see the word "when..." kind of fading out at the end of the first line.
Whatever comes after it may be important.

If you're just supposed to copy the expression into the box,
then the problem is that you left the 'e' out of it.

I'm guessing that you're supposed to enter whatever the expression becomes
when either  N₀ or  ' t ' has some special value that's in the first line.

Just taking a wild guess here . . . . .

If it's  "Enter the expression ..... , when t=0 ." ,
then the correct answer in the box is     N₀  .

But that's just a wild guess.  As I pointed out, you cut off
the picture in the middle of the word 'when', and I've got
a hunch that there's something important after it.
