The following equation is an example of decay? 232/90 TH---4/2 HE +228/88 RA?

Physics
1 answer:
DaniilM [7]2 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.

Alex787 [66]
Hey there!

The answer would be B. The sound moves from air to water.

Sound travels through different mediums. It goes fastest in solids, a little slower in liquids, and slowest in air. Sound is a very fast wave, but remember that mediums can differ that. In a vacuum space, there is no sound at all. (ex. outer space)

Hope this helps !

A 6 kilogram block in outer space is moving at -100 m/s (to the left). It suddenly experiences three forces as shown below.
Alika [10]

Newton's second law and the kinematic relations allow to find the results for the questions about forces and the movement of the block are:

    B) the force applied to maintain the system is equilibrium is: F = 0.39 N with an angle of tea = 180º

    C) The maximum force is: F = 24 N

    D) The time to stop the block is: t = 25 s

 

Newton's second law establishes a relationship between the net force, the mass, and the acceleration of the body. In the special case that the acceleration is zero it is called the equilibrium condition.

B) They indicate a diagram of forces on the block, let's look for the components of the force that the block maintains with zero acceleration, in the attached we have a free-body diagram including the force applied to keep the system in equilibrium.

x-axis

      -10 + 12 sin 60 + Fₓ = 0

        Fₓ = 10- 12 sin 60 = -0.39 N

y-axis

       12 cos 60 - 6 + F_y = 0

        F_y = 6 - 12 cos 60 = 0 N

We can give the result of the force in two ways:

  • Form of coordinates F = -0.39 i ^ N
  • Form of module and angle.

Let's use Pythagoras' theorem to find the modulus.

       F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2 } \\F = \sqrt{0.39^2 +0^2}  

       F = 0.39N

We use trigonometry for the angle.

       tan \theta = \frac{F_y}{F_x}

       tan θ=  0º

The component of the force is negative therefore this angle is in the second quadrant, to measure the angle from the positive side of the x axis in a counterclockwise direction.

        θ = 180 + θ'

        θ = 180 + 0

        θ = 180º

C) if the three forces can be moved and the maximum force occurs when they are all linear.

          10+ 6 + 6 + F = 0

          F = -24 N

D) if we maintain this force and eliminate the other three, the block stops, let's look for its acceleration.

          a = \frac{F}{m}  

          a = \frac{24}{6}  

         a =  4 m / s²

The acceleration is in the opposite direction of the initial velocity of the block v₀ = -100 m / s

If we use kinematic relations.

        v = v₀ - a t

Final velocity when stopped is zero

         t = \frac{0-v_o}{a}

         t = 100/4

         t = 25 s

In conclusion using Newton's second law and the kinematics relations we can find the results for the questions about the forces and the motion of the block are:

    B) the force applied to maintain the system is equilibrium is: F = 0.39 N with an angle of tea = 180º

    C) The maximum force is: F = 24 N

    D) The time to stop the block is: t = 25 s

A magnetic field is uniform over a flat, horizontal circular region with a radius of 1.50 mm, and the field varies with time. In
atroni [7]

Answer:

The average induced emf around the border of the circular region is 8.48\times 10^{-5}\ V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of circular region, r = 1.5 mm

Initial magnetic field, B = 0

Final magnetic field, B' = 1.5 T

The magnetic field is pointing upward when viewed from above, perpendicular to the circular plane in a time of 125 ms. We need to find the average induced emf around the border of the circular region. It is given by the rate of change of magnetic flux as :

\epsilon=\dfrac{-d\phi}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=A\dfrac{-d(B'-B)}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=\pi (1.5\times 10^{-3})^2\times \dfrac{1.5}{0.125}\\\\\epsilon=8.48\times 10^{-5}\ V

So, the average induced emf around the border of the circular region is 8.48\times 10^{-5}\ V.

A transverse standing wave is set up on a string that is held fixed at both ends. The amplitude of the standing wave at an antin
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

a) the maximum transverse speed of a point on the string at an antinode is 5.9899 m/s

b) the maximum transverse speed of a point on the string at x = 0.075 m is 4.2338 m/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

as the equation of standing wave on a string is fixed at both ends

y = 2AsinKx cosωt

but k = 2π/λ and ω = 2πf

λ = 4 × 0.150 = 0.6 m

and f =  v/λ = 260 / 0.6 = 433.33 Hz

ω = 2πf = 2π × 433.33 = 2722.69

given that A = 2.20 mm = 2.2×10⁻³

so V_{max1} = A × ω

V_{max1} = 2.2×10⁻³ × 2722.69 m/s

V_{max1} =  5.9899 m/s

therefore, the maximum transverse speed of a point on the string at an antinode is 5.9899 m/s

b)

A' = 2AsinKx

= 2.20sin( 2π/0.6 ( 0.075) rad )

= 2.20 sin(  0.7853 rad ) mm

= 2.20 × 0.706825 mm

A' = 1.555 mm = 1.555×10⁻³

so

V_{max2} = A' × ω

V_{max2} = 1.555×10⁻³ × 2722.69

V_{max2} = 4.2338 m/s

Therefore, the maximum transverse speed of a point on the string at x = 0.075 m is 4.2338 m/s
