Answer:
4.981 MeV
Explanation:
The quantity of energy Q can be calculated using the formula
Q = (mass before - mass after) × c²
Atomic Mass of thorium = 232.038054 u, atomic of Radium = 228.0301069 u and mass of Helium = 4.00260. The difference of atomic number and atomic mass between the thorium and radium ( 232 - 228) and ( 90 - 88) show α particle was emitted.
1 u = 931.494 Mev/c²
Q = (mass before - mass after) × c²
Q = ( mass of thorium - ( mass of Radium + mass of Helium ) )× c²
Q = 232.038054 u - ( 228.0301069 + 4.00260) × c²
Q = 0.0053471 u × c²
replace 1 u = 931.494 MeV/ c²
Q = 0.0053471 × c² × (931.494 MeV / c²)
cancel c² from the equation
Q = 0.0053471 × 931.494 MeV = 4.981 MeV
Answer:
I disagree
Explanation:
I think the students claim is wrong because according to Newton's First Law an object that is in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Which makes the students claim wrong because a object doesn't require another force to keep it moving.
Answer:
86.4 m horizontal from landing spot
Explanation:
Find out how long before the ball hits the ground
vertical speed of ball = -2 m/s gravity = - 9.81 m/s^2
find time to hit ground from 100 m
( height will be<u> zero</u> when it hits the ground)
<u>0 </u>= 100 - 2 t - 1/2 ( 9.81) t^2
use Quadratic Formula to find t = 4.32 seconds
horizontal speed of ball = 20 m/s
in 4.32 seconds it will travel horizontally 20 m/s * 4.32 s = 86.4 m
Answer: C. 39 s
Explanation:
We know the constant speed is 0.22 m/s. We have to get to 8.5 m. We divide <u>8.5 m by 0.22</u> = 38.6. After we estimate, 6 is greater than 5, so 39 s.
