1. The time for a radioactive sample to reduce to half of its original mass.
4. 10% of 232 is 23.2 times 6 equals 139.2
68.9 x6 equals 413.4
5. 0.37kg
6. 2000 years
7. 6.84 seconds
The gravitational forces between the Earth and Moon are greatest when the two bodies are closest together. That happens every 27.32 days, when the Moon is at the perigee of its orbit.
Even if this happened at the same time in every orbit, the date would change, because there are not 27.32 days in a month.
But it doesn't happen at the same time in every orbit ... the Moon's perigee precesses around its orbit, on account of the gravitational forces toward the Earth, the Sun, Venus, Mars, and the other planets.
Answer:
Distance travel by go-cart = 500 meter
Explanation:
Given:
Speed of go cart = 25 m/s
Time travel = 20 seconds
Find:
Distance travel by go-cart
Computation:
Distance = Speed x time
Distance travel by go-cart = Speed of go cart x Time travel
Distance travel by go-cart = 25 x 20
Distance travel by go-cart = 500 meter
Answer:
Explanation:
At constant pressure , work done by gas = P x ΔV where P is pressure and ΔV is change in volume
ΔV = 9.2 - 5.6 = 3.6 L
3.6 L = 3.6 x 10⁻³ m³
ΔV = 3.6 x 10⁻³ m³
P = 3.7 x 10³ Pa
So work done
= 3.7 x 10³ x 3.6 x 10⁻³ J
= 13.32 J .
( c ) is the answer , because work is done by the gas so it will be positive.

a) Explanation below. b) Explanation below
Explanation:
Torque is defined as the product of a force by a radius, while momentum is defined as the product of force by a distance. Mathematically we would have
T = F * r
M = F * d
where:
T = torque = [N*m]
M = moment = [N*m]
F = force =[N]
d = distance [m]
r = radius [m]
Although they have the same units, the difference between them is the application. For the case of torque this is always applied in parts that are in rotation, such as the shafts of cars, the shafts of pumps, torque in gears and etc. While the moment can be applied to a body without the need for it to rotate.
A couple, is as its name suggests a couple of forces of equal magnitude but opposite sense and do not share a line of action. A body under the action of a couple of forces tends to rotate the body without moving it from one point to another.
