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.

Dolphins communicate using compression waves (longitudinal waves). Some of the sounds dolphins make are outside the range of hum
lana66690 [7]

Answer: send the message underwater because a more dense medium would make the sound travel faster.

Explanation:

Dolphins communicate using compression waves - longitudinal waves. Longitudinal waves requires a medium to travel. A longitudinal wave transfers energy by the vibration of medium particles in the direction of the wave motion. Compression are the regions where density of the medium is higher and rarefaction is a low density region.

A longitudinal wave travels faster in a denser medium. It has maximum speed in solid and minimum in gas. Thus, to transfer message quickly to dolphin B., dolphin A should send the message underwater and not in air. This is because water has higher density than air. Molecules collide more quickly in water than in air and it takes less time for signal to travel.

A student pushes on a 20.0 kg box with a force of 50 N at an angle of 30° below the horizontal. The box accelerates at a rate of
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

225 N

Explanation:

"Below the horizontal" means he's pushing down at an angle.

Draw a free body diagram of the box.  There are three forces: normal force N pushing up, weight force mg pulling down, and the applied force F at an angle θ.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg − F sin θ = 0

N = F sin θ + mg

Plug in values:

N = (50 N) (sin 30°) + (20.0 kg) (10 m/s²)

N = 225 N
