Answer:
D. All of the above
Explanation:
E = MC² is a common equation in physics.
E is energy
M is mass
C is the speed of light
The law was stated by Albert Einstein.
- From this law, it was shown that energy is released when matter is destroyed.
- Mass and energy are equivalent as seen in nuclear reactions where mass is converted to energy.
- Mass and energy is usually conserved in any process and this is a subtle modification of the law of conservation of matter and energy.
- Most of these postulates apply to nuclear reactions which generally do not follow some precepts of chemical laws.
Answer:
37S
Explanation:
Radioactivity is the spontaneous emission of particles and / or electromagnetic radiation by unstable atomic nuclei leading to their disintegration.
We have two main types of radioactivity: radioactive decay and artificial transmutation.
In radioactive decay ( natural radioactivity ), a naturally occurring radioactive element like Uranium-238 disintegrates or decays into more stable isotopes with the emission of particles and/or radiation.
23892U = 23490Th + 42He
Artificial transmutation is the collision of two particles where one particle captures the other used to bombard it. There is subsequent production of isotopes similar or different from the bombarded particle. Neutrons, alpha particles ( helium nucleus ), electrons, protons can be used to bombard elements.
147N + 42He = 178O + 11P
For the above question which is artificial transmutation, the reaction equation is
4018Ar + 10n = 3716S + 42He
So, the neutron capture by Argon-40 will produce a radioisotope Sulphur-37 with the emission of an alpha particle.
Answer:
The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere, the molten upper portion of the mantle. Oceanic and continental plates come together, spread apart, and interact at boundaries all over the planet.
Explanation:
I believe the problem is just simply asking for us to convert the value from one unit to the other. This case from m^3 to km^3. From the SI units, we know 1 km is equal to 1000 m. We do as follows:
118 m^3 ( 1 km / 1000 m )^3 = 1.18 x 10^-7 km^3
I would say that it would be excessive rain and heat. Because, after a drought and a flood happen, standing water is home to mosquitos which carry malaria. I hope this helps!
