Answer:

c. have an excess number of neutrons

Explanation:

A radioactive isotope is defined as any species of the same chemical element with <em>unstable nuclei that emit radiation (alpha, beta, gamma) in order to dissipate its excess energy.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

What is the sequence of energy transformations from the moment the ball is dropped to the moment the board is bent to its maximu
Mila [183]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Transformation of energy involves conversion of energy from one form to another for example our movement around involves the conversion of chemical energy stored in the food we eat to other forms of energy such as kinetic energy for the movement, electrical energy in the neurons for impulses and others

The ball posses gravitational potential energy since it is held at a displacement to the ground ( zero point) and when released, the gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy which leads to the fall of the ball until it is at zero displacement to the earth. The board likewise when bent to its maximum extent stored elastic potential energy as a result of the partial displacement of its constituent particle provided it is  not stretch beyond its elastic limit which can lead to deformation of the board and the elastic potential energy lost.

Suppose a skydiver (mass =100kg) is falling towards the earth. When the skydiver is 80 m above the earth he is moving at 60 m/s
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The total mechanical energy of the skydiver is, E  = 96402.6 J

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the skydiver, m = 100 kg

The speed of the skydiver at 80 m height, v = 60 m/s

The initial velocity of the skydiver, u = 0

Using the III equations of motion,

                                  v² = u² + 2gs

                                   s = v²/2g

Substituting the given values,

                                   s = ½ 60²/ 9.8

                                      = 18.37 m

Hence the initial total distance of the skydiver from the ground initially,

                                    h = s + d

                                        = 18.37 + 80

                                         = 98.37 m

Since the total mechanical energy of a system is conserved, the total mechanical energy of the skydiver at height 'h' is equal to the total mechanical energy at height 'd'.

                                        E = P.E + K.E

                                            = mgh + ½ mu²

                                            = 100 x 9.8 x 98.37     ( ∵ u = 0)

                                             = 96402.6 J

Hence, the total mechanical energy of the skydiver is, E  = 96402.6 J

(1 point) A frictionless spring with a 6-kg mass can be held stretched 0.2 meters beyond its natural length by a force of 50 new
guapka [62]

Answer:

x(t) = 0.077cos(6.455t)

Explanation:

If the spring can be stretched 0.2 m by a force of 50 N, then the spring constant is:

k = 50 / 0.2 = 250 N/m

The equation of simple harmonic motion is as the following:

x(t) = Acos(\omega t - \phi)

where \omega = \sqrt{k/m} = \sqrt{250 / 6} = 6.455

We also know that the initial velocity is 0.5 m/s, which is also the maximum speed at the equilibrium:

v_{max} = A\omega

A = v_{max}/\omega = 0.5 / 6.455 = 0.077 m

\phi = 0 is the initial phase

Therefore, the position of the mass after t seconds is

x(t) = 0.077cos(6.455t)

Answer:

C Restoring Force

Explanation:

Given data

Fs=-kx

According to Hokes Law, provided the elasticity of an elastic material is not exceeded the extension xis directly proportion to the applied force F

From the expression, F represent the Restoring Force in Newton

Where can we found solar energy in britain
Mashcka [7]

Regardless of whether solar ever truly turns into a noteworthy vitality source here in England is dubious. Up to this point, the UK solar industry had been going from solidarity to quality — in 2016, power delivered from solar power outperformed coal control out of the blue.

There is absolutely enough sunlight in the UK (we get around 60 percent of the sunlight got at the equator) to make putting resources into solar advantageous – as has been exhibited by the development of enormous scale solar tasks in Cornwall and Lincolnshire.

Be that as it may, since the legislature cut its help for the solar industry in 2015, the UK has seen an emotional fall in the rate of take off of solar PV boards. This foolhardy move has additionally activated a large number of occupation misfortunes in the solar industry.

Greenpeace is requiring the English government to desperately audit its help for the solar industry, for the atmosphere and for the effect it has had on the development of clean vitality industry occupations in the UK.
