Well, it's really dangerous to try and visualize physical models for things
of this size.  But if you must, then it's something like this:

-- The nucleus is a tight-packed bunch of protons and neutrons, located
at the center of each atom.

-- The electrons live all around the nucleus, in a space far from it. 
A description of the relative sizes that I read more than 60 years ago
and always stuck with me goes like this:   The nucleus in the middle
and the electrons whizzing around it have a size-relationship that's
about the same as a bunch of grapes in the middle of the state of Texas.

This also tells us that matter is mostly empty space ! 

-- In Bohr's model of the atom, he described the whole thing very much
like a miniature solar system ... the electrons are tiny, solid little balls,
orbiting the nucleus like planets around the sun.

We learned later that it's impossible to talk about things like "how big is
the electron" or "where is the electron" or "how much momentum does
the electron have".  The best we can do is talk about a 'cloud' around the
nucleus ... it has some mass and some negative charge, and portions
of it somehow exist at different levels of energy, and can jump to
different levels.     

This is NOT because we don't have good enough technology yet to
zoom in on the electrons, and at some time in the future we'll be able
to sharply see where they are and how fast they're moving.  It's because
on the scale of atomic dimensions, there is NO SUCH THING as "where
is it" or "how big is it" or "how fast is it moving".    These don't exist. 
"Location" is described in terms of probability, objects behave like solid
waves, and an object can have this much energy or that much energy
but NO AMOUNT OF ENERGY IN BETWEEN.   
Weird ?     Hard to understand ?     You said it !

BTW ... the answer to the question is ' A ' .

Answer and Explanation:

The answer is <u>D) Alpha and Gamma</u>

Gamma radiation does not cause transmutations.

A <u>transmutation</u> is the <u>conversion of an atom of one element to an atom of another. This generally occurs through nuclear reacting.</u>

There are three main types of radiation: alpha, beta, and gamma. Both beta and alpha decay cause changes to the mass and atomic numbers. This results in a transmutation. Gamma radiation, however, does not.

Gamma radiation is the result of a gamma ray. In essence, the nucleus emits a high-energy proton. This is very penetrating and can only be stopped by aluminum, lead, soil, water, and concrete. This type of radiation does not change the element and, therefore, does not cause a transmutation.

A car of mass 940.0 kg accelerates away from an intersection on a horizontal road. When the car speed is 42.5 km/hr (11.8 m/s),
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

0.39 m/s^2

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of car, m = 940 kg

Speed of car, v = 11.8 m/s

Power supplied by engine, P = 4300 W

To get the acceleration, we must define the relationship between Power and velocity.

Power, P, is given in terms of velocity, v, as:

P = F * v

where F = force

This is because Power is given as:

P = \frac{E}{t} \\\\\\P = \frac{F*d}{t} \\\\\\=> P = F * v

(where E = energy. t = time taken, d = distance moved)

Force, F, is given as:

F = m*a

Therefore, Power will be:

P = m * a * v

Acceleration, a, will then be:

a = \frac{P}{m*v}

a = \frac{4300}{940 * 118} \\\\\\a = 0.39 m/s^2

The acceleration of the car at that time is 0.39 m/s^2
