Answer:

Th-234, Pa-234

Explanation:

In alpha decay, 2 protons and 2 neutrons are lost.  So U-238 would become Th-234.

In beta decay, one neutron is turned into a proton.  So Th-234 would become Pa-234.

If the result of your calculation of a quantity has si units kg•m^2/s^2•C, that quantity could be
Novosadov [1.4K]
It would be Joules.
Workdone is measured in Joules.
Workdone = Force * distance
Force = mass * acceleration
          = kg      *  ms⁻²
          = kgms⁻²

Distance = m

So, Force * distance
       kgms⁻² * m

Apply laws of indices that says
x² * x³ = x²⁺³ = x⁵

Therefore, It would be kgm²s⁻²
m¹ * m¹ = m¹⁺¹ = m²
s⁻² is also = s / 2

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE A mad scientist places massive amounts of charge on basketball sized aluminum balls. The charge on the ball
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

4.2 x 10⁷N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Charge on ball:

             q₁  = 3C

              q₂ = 14C

Distance between balls  = 9000m

Unknown:

Force acting on the two balls

Solution:

The force experienced by the two charges is given by coulombs law. It is mathematically expressed as;

                      F  = \frac{k q_{1} q_{2} }{r^{2} }

where k  = 9 x 10⁹Nm²/C²

           q is the charges

             r is the distance

Input the variables and solve;

                 

        F  = \frac{9 x 10^{9} x 3 x 14 }{9000}  = 4.2 x 10⁷N

A racing car travels on a circular track of radius 158 m, moving with a constant linear speed of 19.1 m/s. Find its angular spee
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

\omega=0.12\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

In a uniform circular motion, since a complete revolution represents 2π radians, the angular velocity, which is defined as the angle rotated by a unit of time, is given by:

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}(1)

Here T is the period, that is, the time taken to complete onee revolution:

T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}(2)

Replacing (2) in (1):

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{\frac{2\pi r}{v}}=\frac{v}{r}\\\omega=\frac{19.1\frac{m}{s}}{158m}\\\omega=0.12\frac{rad}{s}
