What is the difference between beta plus and minus

Physics

Beta decay is very complex phenomena in natural radioactive decay. There are 3 types of Beta decay.

B+ decay (Beta plus or Beta positive or positron decay):

is the conversion of a proton into a neutron plus a positron and an electron neutrino.

B- decay (Beta negative or Beta nought):

is the conversion  of a neutron into a proton plus an electron and a electron antineutrino. 

Note: a positron is the a positive electron or the antiparticle of the electron.

Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.0 kg gibbon
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

230 N

Explanation:

At the lowest position , the velocity is maximum hence at this point, maximum support force  T  is given by the branch.

The swinging motion of the ape on a vertical circular path , will require

a centripetal force  in upward direction . This is related to weight as follows

T - mg = m v² / R

R is radius of circular path . m is mass of the ape and velocity is 3.2 m/s

T =  mg -  mv² / R

T = 8.5 X 9.8 + 8.5 X 3.2² / .60  { R is length of hand of ape. }

T = 83.3 + 145.06

= 228.36

= 230 N ( approximately )

A batter hits a 0.140-kg baseball that was approaching him at 19.5 m/s and, as a result, the ball leaves the bat at 44.8 m/s in
Arada [10]

Answer:

5295.3 N

Explanation:

According to law of momentum conservation, the change in momentum of the ball shall be from the momentum generated by the batter force

mv + P = mV

P = mV - mv = m(V - v)

Since the velocity of the ball before and after is in opposite direction, one of them is negative

P = 0.14(44.8 - (-19.5)) = 9 kg m/s

Hence the force exerted to generate such momentum within 1.7ms (0.0017s) is

F = P/t = 9/0.0017 = 5295.3 N

A tuning fork vibrating at 508 Hz falls from rest and accelerates at 9.80 m/s^2. How far below the point of release is the tunin
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

given,

tuning fork vibration = 508 Hz

accelerates = 9.80 m/s²

speed of sound = 343 m/s

observed frequency = 490 Hz

f_s = f(\dfrac{v}{v-(-v_s)})

f_s = f(\dfrac{v}{v+v_s})

v_s = v[\dfrac{f_s}{f_o}-1]

      = 343[\dfrac{508}{490}-1]

      v_s=12.6 m/s

distance the tunning fork has fallen

y_1=\dfrac{v^2}{2a_y}

     =\dfrac{12.6^2}{2\times 9.8}

     =8.1 m

now, time required for the observed will be

t = \dfrac{8.1}{343} = 0.023 s

now, for the distance calculation

y_2 = u\ t + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

  = 12.6\times 0.023 +\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 0.023^2

  =0.293 m

total distance

 = 8.1 + 0.293 = 8.392 m
