Answer:

1.312 x 10⁻¹² J/nucleon

Explanation:

mass of ¹³⁶Ba = 135.905 amu

¹³⁶Ba contain 56 proton and 80 neutron

mass of proton = 1.00728 amu

mass of neutron = 1.00867 amu

mass of ¹³⁶Ba = 56 x  1.00728 amu + 80 x 1.00867 amu

                      = 137.10128 amu

mass defect = 137.10128 - 135.905

                    = 1.19628 amu

mass defect = 1.19628 x 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

                     = 1.9858 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

binding energy,

E = mass defect x c²

E = 1.9858 x 10⁻²⁷ x (3 x 10⁸)²

E = 17.87 x 10⁻¹¹ J/atom

now,

binding energy per nucleon =\dfrac{17.87\times 10^{-11}}{136}

                                              = 0.1312 x 10⁻¹¹ J/nucleon

                                              = 1.312 x 10⁻¹² J/nucleon

A snowball is rolling down a hill at 4.5 m/s and accumulating snow as it goes. Its diameter begins at 0.50 m and ends at the bot
Reil [10]
To find the change in centripetal acceleration, you should first look for the centripetal acceleration at the top of the hill and at the bottom of the hill.

The formula for centripetal acceleration is:
Centripetal Acceleration = v squared divided by r

where:
v = velocity, m/s
r= radium, m

assuming the velocity does not change:

at the top of the hill:
centripetal acceleration = (4.5 m/s^2) divided by 0.25 m
                                      = 81 m/s^2

at the bottom of the hill:
centripetal acceleration = (4.5 m/s^2) divided by 1.25 m
                                      = 16.2 m/s^2

to find the change in centripetal acceleration, take the difference of the two.
change in centripetal acceleration = centripetal acceleration at the top of the hill - centripetal acceleration at the bottom of the hill

= 81 m/s^2 - 16.2 m/s^2
= 64.8 m/s^2 or 65 m/s^2

On a sky coaster (human pendulum) that reaches 10 meters from it's equilibrium position, a man of 120 kg is able to reach a maxi
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

Using the principle of conservation of energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, assuming any losses.

Kinetic energy is given by ½mv²

Potential energy is given by mgh

Where m is the mass, v is the velocity, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

Equating kinetic energy to be equal to potential energy then

½mv²=mgh

V

Making v the subject of the formula

v=√(2gh)

Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g and 10 m for h then

v=√(2*9.81*10)=14.0071410359145 m/s

Rounding off, v is approximately 14 m/s

While driving, your car has an initial position of 3.2 m, an initial velocity of -8.4 m/s, and
KIM [24]

Answer:

The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters

Explanation:

The initial position of the car is 3.2 meters

The initial velocity is -8.4 m/s

The constant acceleration is 1.1 m/s²

We need to find the final position of the car at the time t = 1.5 seconds

The displacement <em>s</em> = final position - initial position

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}, where <em>u</em> is the initial velocity, <em>a</em> is the

constant acceleration and <em>t</em> is the time

So we can find the final velocity by using the rule:

final position - initial position = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

initial position = 3.2 meters , u = -8.4 m/s , a = 1.1 ²m/s , t = 1.5 s

Substitute these values in the rule

final position - 3.2 = (-8.4)(1.5)+\frac{1}{2}(1.1)(1.5)^{2}

final position - 3.2 = -12.6 + 1.2375

final position - 3.2 = -11.3625

add 3.2 for both sides

final position = -8.1625

<em>That means the car is at 8.1625 meters in opposite direction</em>

<em>The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters </em>
