The movement of a magnetic pole away from the actual pole

1 answer:

3 0

The North Magnetic Pole is the point on the surface of Earth's Northern Hemisphere at which the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards (in other words, if a magnetic compass needle is allowed to rotate about a horizontal axis, it will point straight down). There is only one location where this occurs, near (but distinct from) the Geographic North Pole and the Geomagnetic North Pole.

Cesium-137 undergoes beta decay and has a half-life of 30.0 years. How many beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of ces

Mandarinka [93]

Answer: $0.81\times 10^{16}$ beta particles

Explanation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass = 14.0 g

Molar mass = 137 g/mol

$\text{Number of moles of cesium}=\frac{14.0g}{137g/mol}=0.102moles$

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number $6.023\times 10^{23}$ of particles.

1 mole of cesium contains atoms = $6.023\times 10^{23}$

0.102 moles of cesium contains atoms = $\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 0.102=0.614\times 10^{23}$

The relation of atoms with time for radioactivbe decay is:

$N_t=N_0\times \frac{1}{2}^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}$

Where $N_t$ =atoms left undecayed

$N_0$ = initial atoms

t = time taken for decay = 3 minutes

${t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$ = half life = 30.0 years = $1.577\times 10^7$ minutes

The fraction that decays : $1-(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{3}{1.577\times 10^7}}=1.32\times 10^{-7}$

Amount of particles that decay is = $0.614\times 10^{23}\times 1.32\times 10^{-7}=0.81\times 10^{16}$

Thus $0.81\times 10^{16}$ beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of cesium-137 in three minutes.

An object at rest cannot remain at rest unless which of the following holds?View Available Hint(s)An object at rest cannot remai

Leni [432]

Answer:

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

Explanation:

In order to analyze the statements of this problem we propose your solution.

First let's look at Newton's first, which stable that every object is at rest or with constant speed unless something takes it out of this state (acceleration)

Now let's look at the second postulate, which says that force is related to the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration.

As a result of these two laws, for a body is a constant velocity the summation force on it must be zero.

Now we can analyze the statements given.

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

False. If the force is different from zero, there is acceleration that changes the speeds

False. There may be forces, but the sum of them must be zero

False. If a force acts, the acceleration is different from zero and the speed changes

X-rays with an energy of 400 keV undergo Compton scattering with a target. If the scattered X-rays are detected at \theta = 30^{

dedylja [7]

<h2>Answer: 37.937 keV</h2>

Explanation:

<u>Photons have momentum</u>, this was proved by he American physicist Arthur H. Compton after his experiments related to the <u>scattering of photons from electrons</u> (Compton Effect or Compton Shift). In addition, energy and momentum are conserved in the process.

In this context, the Compton Shift $\Delta \lambda$ in wavelength when the photons are scattered is given by the following equation:

$\Delta \lambda=\lambda' - \lambda_{o}=\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)$ (1)

Where:

$\lambda_{c}=2.43(10)^{-12} m$ is a constant whose value is given by $\frac{h}{m_{e}.c}$ , being $h=4.136(10)^{-15}eV.s$ the Planck constant, $m_{e}$ the mass of the electron and $c=3(10)^{8}m/s$ the speed of light in vacuum.
