Leya [2.2K]3 years ago
5 0
Alpha particles are released by proton rich unstable nuclei. It has no electrons to balance the protons making it positively charged particles moving at very high speeds. Gamma articles are electromagnetic waves of short wavelength and high frequency. It has a speed same as the speed of light. Beta particles are released by neutron rich unstable nuclei. It has a speed of less than the gamma particles.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Newtons first law states that if an object is at rest it will stay at rest only if an unbalanced force acts on it. As well as if an object is in motion it will stay in motion unless an unbalanced force acts on it.

Ps- The object will stay moving in the same speed and direction.

Which process is represented by the PV diagram shown below?
MrMuchimi

Answer: B. the isovolumetric process

Explanation:

In the graph given, the volume is constant throughout. It represents a constant volume process. Such processes are called the isovolumetric process or isochoric process.

<em>Hence, option B is the correct answer.</em>

Option A is incorrect because in an isobaric process, the pressure is constant.

Option C is incorrect because in an isothermal process, the temperature is constant.

Option D is incorrect because in an adiabatic process there is no heat transfer.

John and Linda are arguing about the definition of density. John says the density of an object is proportional to itsmass. Linda
NeX [460]

Answer:

They are both correct.

Explanation:

The density of an object is defined as the ratio of its mass to its volume. This implies that the density of the object is both proportional to the mass and also to the volume of the object. John only mentioned mass which is correct. Linda mentioned the second variable on which density depends which is the volume of the object.

Hence considering the both statements objectively, one can say that they are both correct.
