Which particle is most likely to interact with your hand? Select one: a. Alpha particle b. Beta particle c. Gamma particle d. Ne

utrino
Physics
1 answer:
IgorLugansk [536]4 years ago
4 0

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.

PLEASE HELP. GRAVITY QUESTION, WRITTEN RESPONSE.
Rina8888 [55]

1) Forces acting on your body: force of gravity and normal reaction

2) Due to Newton's second law, N = mg

Explanation:

1)

When you sit on the computer, there are only two forces acting on you:

  • The force of gravity, acting downward, of magnitude W=mg, where m is your mass and g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity, downward
  • The normal reaction exerted by the chair on you, N, acting upward

Your body is in equilibrium (it doesn't move), this means that the two forces balance each other, therefore:

N-mg=0\\N=mg

2)

We can now apply Newton's second law of motion to this situation; this law states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration. Mathematically,

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

In this situation, the net force is

\sum F = N-mg

So the equation becomes

N-mg=ma

However, we observe that your body is at rest; therefore, the acceleration is zero:

a = 0

And therefore,

N-mg=0\\N=mg
