There are no nothings following.

"Sphere" is quite an accurate description of the Earth's shape.

"Oblate spheroid" is even more accurate.

They're not the exact same thing.  But if you saw the Earth right next to an oblate spheroid the same size, you couldn't tell it from a perfect sphere.

Cesium-137 undergoes beta decay and has a half-life of 30.0 years. How many beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of ces
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: 0.81\times 10^{16} beta particles

Explanation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass = 14.0 g

Molar mass = 137 g/mol

\text{Number of moles of cesium}=\frac{14.0g}{137g/mol}=0.102moles

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

1 mole of cesium contains atoms =  6.023\times 10^{23}

0.102 moles of cesium contains atoms =  \frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 0.102=0.614\times 10^{23}

The relation of atoms with time for radioactivbe decay is:

N_t=N_0\times \frac{1}{2}^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}

Where N_t =atoms left undecayed

N_0 = initial atoms

t = time taken for decay = 3 minutes

{t_{\frac{1}{2}}} = half life = 30.0 years = 1.577\times 10^7 minutes

The fraction that decays  :  1-(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{3}{1.577\times 10^7}}=1.32\times 10^{-7}

Amount of particles that decay is  = 0.614\times 10^{23}\times 1.32\times 10^{-7}=0.81\times 10^{16}

Thus 0.81\times 10^{16} beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of cesium-137 in three minutes.

How do force affect the acceleration of a body?<br><br>​
Arada [10]

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

Samantha and Emily are pushing a box of textbooks in the same direction across their classroom. Samantha is applying a force of
velikii [3]

Answer: 20 newtons

Explanation:

Given that:

Force applied by Samantha = 10 newtons

Force applied by Emily = 10 newtons

Direction of both forces = same

Net force of their efforts = ?

Since net force of forces applied in the same direction is obtained by adding up the seperate forces applied, then

Net force = (10 newtons + 10 newtons)

Net force = 20 newtons

Thus, the net force of their efforts is 20 newtons.
