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.
Answer:
Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry.
Explanation:
Explanation:
Since, it is mentioned the there occurs no change in the temperature. This also means that there will occur no change in thermal energy of the system.
Hence,
= 0. And, as
= 0 then there will be no work involved. This means that total energy added to the house will return to the outside air as heat.
Therefore,
Q = -(19000 J + 2000 J)
= -21000 J
or, |Q| = 21000 J
Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the energy transfer between the house and the outside air is 21000 J.
I think it’s b... not sure tho sorry
Answer:
h’ = 1/9 h
Explanation:
This exercise must be solved in parts:
* Let's start by finding the speed of sphere B at the lowest point, let's use the concepts of conservation of energy
starting point. Higher
Em₀ = U = m g h
final point. Lower, just before the crash
Em_f = K = ½ m
energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
m g h = ½ m v²
v_b =
* Now let's analyze the collision of the two spheres. We form a system formed by the two spheres, therefore the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved
initial instant. Just before the crash
p₀ = 2m 0 + m v_b
final instant. Right after the crash
p_f = (2m + m) v
the moment is preserved
p₀ = p_f
m v_b = 3m v
v = v_b / 3
v = ⅓ 
* finally we analyze the movement after the crash. Let's use the conservation of energy to the system formed by the two spheres stuck together
Starting point. Lower
Em₀ = K = ½ 3m v²
Final point. Higher
Em_f = U = (3m) g h'
Em₀ = Em_f
½ 3m v² = 3m g h’
we substitute
h’=
h’ =
h’ = 1/9 h
