21. Compare and contrast beta particles to the electrons that surround neutral atoms.

1 answer:

6 0

Beta particles come from the nucleus. Electrons are found around the nucleus.
Beta particles normally travel very fast out of a nucleus in a straight line. Electrons normally orbit the nucleus of an atom.

They both have the same mass and the same charge.

From a set of graphed data the slope of the best fit line is found to be 1.35 m/s and the slope of the worst fit line is 1.29m/s

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Solution:

Let the slope of the best fit line be represented by ' $m_{best}$ '

and the slope of the worst fit line be represented by ' $m_{worst}$ '

Given that:

$m_{best}$ = 1.35 m/s

$m_{worst}$ = 1.29 m/s

Then the uncertainity in the slope of the line is given by the formula:

$\Delta m = \frac{m_{best}-m_{worst}}{2}$ (1)

Substituting values in eqn (1), we get

$\Delta m = \frac{1.35 - 1.29}{2}$ = 0.03 m/s

During soccer practice, Maya kicked a soccer ball 37° off the ground at 25 m/s. Max, the goalie, caught the ball 60 m away from

amid [387]

Answer:

3.0 seconds

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by considering the horizontal motion of the ball only. In fact, the ball moves by uniform motion (constant speed) along the horizontal direction, since there are no forces acting in this direction. The horizontal speed of the ball is given by:

$v_x = v_0 cos \theta = (25 m/s)(cos 37^{\circ})=19.97 m/s$
