Radioactive isotopes of an atom aren't as stable as you would think, so the correct answer is: C. Less Stable

(I can verify this because I took the test.)

Hope this helps! Have a wonderfully wonderful day!

Cheers mate!

Answer:

c.less stable

Explanation:

A radioactive isotope is an isotope of an atom that has an unstable nucleus. This generally happens when the nucleus has a much larger number of neutrons compared to the number of protons: in this case, the nucleus tends to decay, emitting part of the neutrons (but also protons or electrons, depending on the type of decay), becoming a lighter nucleus which is more stable. Therefore, a radioactive isotope is generally not very stable.

Calculate the weight of an apple of mass 100grams on Earth

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

In physics the standard unit of weight is Newton, and the standard unit of mass is the kilogram. On Earth, a 1 kg object weighs 9.8 N, so to find the weight of an object in N simply multiply the mass by 9.8 N. Or, to find the mass in kg, divide the weight by 9.8 N.

The results of a recent television survey of American TV households revealed that 86 out of every 100 TV households have at leas

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

$q = \dfrac{14}{100}$

Explanation:

given,

86 out of every 100 TV households have at least one remote control

Probability of any material is calculated by.

$Probability = \dfrac{favourable\ outcome}{Total\ outcome}$

$P(at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=\dfrac{86}{100}$

$P(at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=0.86$

now, Calculating probability that at least one remote control

q = 1 - 0.86

q = 0.14

$P(doesnot\ have\ at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=\dfrac{14}{100}$

$q = \dfrac{14}{100}$

Which type of energy is stored in a capacitor? electric potential energy chemical energy gravitational energy heat energy

Tom [10]

Energy stored in a capacitor is Electric Potential Energy. Capacitor is device used for storing energy. The work done to charge is a capacitor is stored in it in the form of Electrical potential energy. Electrical potential energy is defined as capacity to do work due to the position change. For example, we know fans have capacitor installed in it. When we turn off the fan, it continue moving using the electrical energy stored in the capacitor.
