As objects grow farther apart, what happens to the force of gravity between them?

Per person, the energy consumption in the United States is about 3.3 × 10^8 Btu/yr. This is equivalent to a power of:________. A

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11\ kW$

Explanation:

Btu of British thermal unit is a unit of heat. The relation between btu/year and watts is given by :

$1\ btu/yr=3.343\times 10^{-5}\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=3.343\times 10^{-5}\times 3.3\times 10^8\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11031.9\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11\ kW$

So, $3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr$ is equal to 11 kW. Hence, the correct option is (d).

What would be the daughter product of the beta decay of lead-212 and what would be the daughter product of the alpha decay of po

kati45 [8]

Answer:

lead with Z = 82 is transformed into Bismuth with Z = 73

The Po with Z = 84 becomes Pb with Z = 82

Explanation:

Beta decay occurs when a neutron emits an electron and an anti neutrino from the atomic nucleus, therefore the atomic number of the material increases by one unit.

Pb + e + ν → Bi

lead with Z = 82 is transformed into Bismuth with Z = 73

In alpha decay, a helium nucleus is emitted from the nucleus of the atom, therefore the atomic number decreases by two units.

Po +α → Pb

The Po with Z = 84 becomes Pb with Z = 82

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 16.1 Standing waves. An air-filled pipe is found to have successive harmonics at 800 HzHz ,

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Length of the pipe = 53.125 cm

Explanation:

given data

harmonic frequency f1 = 800 Hz

harmonic frequency f2 = 1120 Hz

harmonic frequency f3 = 1440 Hz

solution

first we get here fundamental frequency that is express as

2F = f2 - f1 ...............1

put here value

2F = 1120 - 800

F = 160 Hz

and

Wavelength is express as

Wavelength = Speed ÷ Fundamental frequency ................2

here speed of waves in air = 340 m/s

so put here value

Wavelength =340 ÷ 160

Wavelength = 2.125 m

so

Length of the pipe will be

Length of the pipe = 0.25 × wavelength ......................3

put here value

Length of the pipe = 0.25 × 2.125

Length of the pipe = 0.53125 m

Length of the pipe = 53.125 cm
