Sometimes, even with a wrench, one cannot loosen a nut that is frozen tightly to a bolt. It is often possible to loosen the nut

by slipping one end of a long pipe over the wrench handle and pushing at the other end of the pipe. With the aid of the pipe, does the applied force produce a smaller torque, a greater torque, or the same torque on the nut?

Answer:

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the product of force and the perpendicular distance from the application of force.

It is a vector quantity.

Torque = force x perpendicular distance

To loosen a nut, if we increase the amount of distance, the torque is increased by applying a little amount of force and hence it is easy to open the nut.

Thus, it is easy to open a nut by slipping one end of a long pipe over the wrench handle and pushing at the other end of the pipe so that the torque is more and the nut is loosen.

Answer and Explanation:

The answer is <u>D) Alpha and Gamma</u>

Gamma radiation does not cause transmutations.

A <u>transmutation</u> is the <u>conversion of an atom of one element to an atom of another. This generally occurs through nuclear reacting.</u>

There are three main types of radiation: alpha, beta, and gamma. Both beta and alpha decay cause changes to the mass and atomic numbers. This results in a transmutation. Gamma radiation, however, does not.

Gamma radiation is the result of a gamma ray. In essence, the nucleus emits a high-energy proton. This is very penetrating and can only be stopped by aluminum, lead, soil, water, and concrete. This type of radiation does not change the element and, therefore, does not cause a transmutation.

16. Two capacitors have an equivalent
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

C1 + C2 = 30     parallel connection

C1 * C2 / (C1 + C2) = 7.2  series connection

C1 * C2 = 7.2 * (C1 + C2) = 216

C2 + 216 / C2 = 30    using first equation

C2^2 + 216 = 30 C2

C2^2 - 30 C2 + 216 = 0

C2 = 12 or 18    solving the quadratic

Then C1 = 18 or 12
