The correct answer is C.
W=force into distance.

Option B states that "balanced forces act on on object and cause movement in direction of these force" which is against the laws of physics.
Option A is wrong because work is the product of force into distance,its not time.
Option D says that work is distance over time,which is wrong as:
speed=distance/time
So your left with option C

Why do atoms like carbon and nitrogen not like to make ions, while sodium and chlorine do?
krok68 [10]
Atoms like carbon and nitrogen do not form ions because the electronegativity of these atoms are not that high nor very low which means electrons are fairly stable in the atom. While chlorine has very high electronegativity and for sodium very low, atoms tend to receive or release electrons.

A radioactive material has a count rate of 400 per minute. It has a half life of 40 years. How long will it take to decay to a r
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

160 years.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial count rate (Cᵢ) = 400 count/min

Half-life (t½) = 40 years

Final count rate (Cբ) = 25 count/min

Time (t) =?

Next, we shall determine the number of half-lives that has elapse. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial count rate (Cᵢ) = 400 count/min

Final count rate (Cբ) = 25 count/min

Number of half-lives (n) =?

Cբ = 1/2ⁿ × Cᵢ

25 = 1/2ⁿ × 400

Cross multiply

25 × 2ⁿ = 400

Divide both side by 25

2ⁿ = 400/25

2ⁿ = 16

Express 16 in index form with 2 as the base

2ⁿ = 2⁴

n = 4

Thus, 4 half-lives has elapsed.

Finally, we shall determine the time taken for the radioactive material to decay to the rate of 25 counts per minute. This can be obtained as follow:

Half-life (t½) = 40 years

Number of half-lives (n) = 4

Time (t) =?

n = t / t½

4 = t / 40

Cross multiply

t = 4 × 40

t = 160 years.

Thus, it will take 160 years for the radioactive material to decay to the rate of 25 counts per minute.

a man hits a golf ball (0.2kg) which accelerates at a rate of 20 m/s what amount of force acted on the ball
MAVERICK [17]

The ball only accelerates during the brief time that the club is in contact
with it. After it leaves the club face, it takes off at a constant speed.

If it accelerates at 20 m/s² during the hit, then

   Force = (mass) x (acceleration) = (0.2kg) x (20 m/s²) = <em>4 newtons</em> .

Two resistors, R1 and R2, are
dlinn [17]

The reciprocal of the total resistance is equal to the sum of the reciprocals of the component resistances:

1/(120.7 Ω) = 1/<em>R₁</em> + 1/(221.0 Ω)

1/<em>R₁</em> = 1/(120.7 Ω) - 1/(221.0 Ω)

<em>R₁</em> = 1 / (1/(120.7 Ω) - 1/(221.0 Ω)) ≈ 265.9 Ω
