Answer:
The correct option is a
Explanation:
The alpha particle has the lowest penetrating power of the trio of alpha, beta and gamma particles and can be stopped by a sheet of paper and hence cannot penetrate a human skin. Beta particle has a higher penetrating power than alpha particle (some of it penetrates the human skin and some do not) while the gamma particle has the highest penetrating power (with all of it penetrating the human skin).
From the above description, it can be deduced that the alpha particle will stay and interact with the hand (because of its low penetrating power) as the remaining particles move through the skin.
The correct answer is A. Acid rain forms from human activities and lowers the pH of rainwater below 7
Explanation:
The term "acid rain" is used to refer to rainwater with a low pH or a high acidity, this includes rainwater with a pH below 7 (solutions with a pH under 7 are acidic). In terms of formation, acid rain is mainly the result of human activities such as factories or cars that release pollutants into the atmosphere including nitric and sulfuric acids and these alter the natural pH of rain and makes it more acidic. Additionally, acid rain has negative consequences such as the death of fishes and other organisms in lakes, rivers, etc. because the acidity is toxic to many organisms. Thus, acid rain is the result of human activities and it lowers the pH of rain (Option A).
This equation will be balanced if the x is a 2 because there are two sodiums on the reactants sides so there must be two sodiums on the products side

Answer:
a) 69.3 m/s
b) 18.84 s
Explanation:
Let the initial velocity = u
The vertical and horizontal components of the velocity is given by uᵧ and uₓ respectively
uᵧ = u sin 40° = 0.6428 u
uₓ = u cos 40° = 0.766 u
We're given that the horizontal distance travelled by the projectile rock (Range) = 1 km = 1000 m
The range of a projectile motion is given as
R = uₓt
where t = total time of flight
1000 = 0.766 ut
ut = 1305.5
The vertical distance travelled by the projectile rocks,
y = uᵧ t - (1/2)gt²
y = - 900 m (900 m below the crater's level)
-900 = 0.6428 ut - 4.9t²
Recall, ut = 1305.5
-900 = 0.6428(1305.5) - 4.9 t²
4.9t² = 839.1754 + 900
4.9t² = 1739.1754
t = 18.84 s
Recall again, ut = 1305.5
u = 1305.5/18.84 = 69.3 m/s
