Cobaltâ’60 is a radioactive isotope used to treat cancers of the brain and other tissues. A gamma ray emitted by an atom of this

isotope has an energy of 4.70 MeV (million electron volts; 1 eV = 1.602 Ă— 10â’19 J). What is the frequency (in Hz) and the wavelength (in m) of this gamma ray? Enter your answers in scientific notation.

Energy of gamma rays is given by equation

E = h\nu

here we know that

h = Planck's constant

\nu = frequency

now energy is given as

E = 4.70 MeV = 4.70 \times 10^6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}

E = 7.52 \times 10^{-13} J

now by above equation

E = h\nu

7.52 \times 10^{-13} = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \nu

\nu = 1.14 \times 10^{21} Hz

now for wavelength we can say

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}

\lambda = \frac{3\times 10^8}{1.14 \times 10^{21}}

\lambda = 2.63 \times 10^{-13} m

Động cơ của một ô tô thực hiện một lực kéo không đổi là F=4000N . Biết ô tô chuyển động đều với vận tốc 36km/h . Trong năm phutd
erik [133]

Answer:

The work done is 12 MJ.

Explanation:

The engine of a car exerts a constant traction force of F=4000N . Assume that the car is moving at a constant speed of 36 km/hr. In five minutes, what is the work done by the engine's traction?

Force, F = 4000 N

speed, v = 36 km/h = 10 m/s

time , t = 5 minutes = 5 x 60 = 300  s

Work done is given by

W =  force x distance

W = 4000 x 10 x 300 J = 12 x 10^6 J = 12 MJ

Describe what happens to the gravitational force between two objects when their masses are increased
Inessa [10]

Answer:

So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases. If the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled. If the mass of one of the objects is tripled, then the force of gravity between them is tripled.
