The presence of helium gas indicates the radioactive sample is most likely decaying by α-decay, or alpha decay. α-decay is the type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits α particles. α particles are Helium nuclei. So the correct answer would be α-decay.
Answer: B. I hope you get this right.
The acceleration which is gained by an object because of the gravitational force is called its acceleration due to gravity. Its SI unit is m/s2. Acceleration due to gravity is a vector, which means it has both a magnitude and a direction. The formula is ‘the change in velocity= gravity x time’ The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Earth is represented as g. It has a standard value defined as 9.80665 m/s2.[1]
Answer:
1375J
Explanation:
The gravitational potential/potential energy of the at the top of the tree which is the energy by virtue of its position.
P.E = mgh
mass = m
Acceleration due to gravity = g
height = h
At the top of the tree, the value of h (height) is high resulting in the gravitational potential. When the cat lands on the ground, the value of h is zero, the the gravitational potential would be zero and all the potential energy have been converted to other forms of energy.
Therefore, the total gravitational potential store is equal to the maximum amount of energy that can be transferred which is equal to 1375J.
