The complete equation is: 92238U --> 90234Th + 42He

This type of radiation is alpha decay in which an alpha particle is a Helium nucleus with 2 protons and 2 nuetrons. This nucleus/alpha particle(s) are released to stabilize the radioactive atom, in this case, the 92238Uranium.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

(a) \omega=1.41*10^3\frac{rad}{s}

(b) t=4.46*10^{-3}s

Explanation:

The angular speed is a measure of the rotation speed. Thus, It is defined as the angle rotated by a unit of time:

\omega=\frac{\theta}{t}(1)

The arc length in a circle is given by:

s=r\theta\\\theta=\frac{s}{r}(2)

s is the length of an arc of the circle, so v=\frac{s}{t}.

Replacing (2) in (1):

\omega=\frac{s}{t}\frac{1}{r}\\\omega=\frac{v}{r}

a) Now, we calculate the angular speed:

\omega=\frac{2.21*10^{-5}\frac{m}{s}}{1.57*10^{-8}m}\\\omega=1.41*10^3\frac{rad}{s}

b) We use (1) to calculate the time it takes to make one revolution, which means that \theta is 2\pi.

\omega=\frac{\theta}{t}\\t=\frac{\theta}{\omega}\\t=\frac{2\pi}{1.41*10^3\frac{rad}{s}}\\t=4.46*10^{-3}s

a cyclist applies a constant forward force of 20 N to maintain a velocity 2.5 m/s. how much power does the cyclist deliver?
forsale [732]

The power exerted by the cyclist is determined as 50 W.

<h3>Average power exerted by the cyclist</h3>

The power exerted by the cyclist is calculated as follows;

P = FV

where;

  • F is the applied force
  • V is velocity

P = 20 x 2.5

P = 50 W

Thus, the power exerted by the cyclist is determined as 50 W.
