Physics

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.

What are the assumptions on which the cosmological principle is based?.
prisoha [69]
Homogeneity and isotropy, On large enough scales, the Universe looks pretty much the same in all directions. The big bang theory is based on two assumptions: the first is centered around Einstein's general theory of relativity, which accurately describes gravity and the interactions of matter; and the second, also known as the cosmological principle, asserts that the universe is homogeneous and isotropic on a large enough scale.

Hope this helps!

an engine has been design to work between source and the sink at temperature 177 degree Celsius and 27 degree Celsius respective
irina [24]

<u>Given data</u>

Source temperature (T₁) = 177°C = 177+273 = 450 K

Sink temperature (T₂) = 27°C = 27+273 = 300 K

Energy input (Q₁) = 3600 J ,

Work done = ?

                We know that, efficiency (η) = Net work done ÷ Heat supplied

                                                           η =   W ÷ Q₁  

                                                           W = η × Q₁

               First determine the efficiency ( η ) = ?

                                Also, we know that ( η ) = (T₁ - T₂) ÷ (T₁)

                                                                        = 33.3% = 0.333

               Now, Work done is W = η × Q₁

                                                    = 0.33 × 3600

                                                 <em>  W = 1188 J</em>

<em>Work done by the engine is 1188 J</em>
