DaniilM [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Alpha decay

Explanation:

  • Alpha decay is one of the three major types of decays, others being, beta decay and gamma decay.
  • <em><u>When a radioactive isotope undergoes alpha decay it emits alpha particles. An alpha particle is equivalent to the nucleus of Helium atom.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Therefore, an atom undergoing decay, its atomic mass is decreased by 4 and its atomic number is decreased by 2. </u></em>
  • Thus, since 232/90 Th, has undergone alpha decay its mass number is reduced by 4 to 228 and its atomic number by 2 to 88, and becomes 228/88 Ra.

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

A) 0.188

B) 53.1 ⁰

Explanation:

taking moment about 0

∑ Mo = Lo∝

mg 1/2 sin∅ = 1/3 m L^2∝

note ∝ = w\frac{dw}{d}∅

forces acting along t-direction ( ASSUMED t direction)

∑ Ft = Ma(t) = mr∝

mg sin ∅ - F = m* 1/2 * 3g/2l sin∅

therefore F = mg/4 sin∅

forces acting along n - direction ( ASSUMED n direction)

∑ Fn = ma(n) = mr(w^{2})

= mg cos∅ - N = m*1/2*3g/1 ( 1 - cos∅ )

hence N = mg/2 ( 5cos∅ -3 )

A ) Angle given = 30⁰c find coefficient of static friction

∪ = F/N

  = \frac{\frac{mg}{4}sin30 }{\frac{mg}{2}(5cos30 -3) }  = 0.188

B) when there is no slip

N = O

   = 5 cos ∅ -3 =0

   therefore cos ∅ = 3/5  hence ∅ = 53.1⁰

Tcecarenko [31]

As new energy sources have been developed, the energy consumption in the history has changed significantly.

There were some new forms of energy developed, such as fossil fuels like petroleum, natural gas, and coal which provides energy for 87% of US.

Gravitational energy can be negative?
AlladinOne [14]

answer:

yes

explanation:

At a separation of the surface of Earth (r=6400km) gravity wants pull the test mass closer and closer. ... So the work done by gravity is NEGATIVE. The gravitational potential energy is negative because us trying to do the opposite of what gravity wants needs positive energy.
