What kind of radiation is emitted in the following nuclear reaction

Physics
1 answer:
miv72 [106K]3 years ago
4 0

Beta emission is occurring in the given nuclear reaction.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

In this equation, the reactant is the Thorium atom, which is reduced to palladium. As the atomic number get decreased by one, so an electron will be emitted. This process of emission of electrons by radiation or decaying the reactant nuclei to form a new product nuclei is termed as beta emission.

So, the electrons are generally termed as beta particles while the positrons are termed as positive beta particles. So this is a kind of radioactive reactions where the reactant changes to new element by releasing an electron and thus there is a change in the atomic number of the product by one.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

the final potential energy of this system is 3U0/10

Explanation:

We are given

charge at left end  and another test charge at point p

Potential energy is given by  = \frac{k*Q1*Q2 }{R}

where k is electrostatics constant = 9 *10^9

Q1 = first charge , Q2=  test charge

R= distance between charges

potential at point p

U0 = k*Q1*Q2 /3 ⇒ kq1q2 = 3U0 ..............1

now the test charge moves to point R

using Pytahgoreou theorem

R(distance) = \sqrt{8^2 + 6^2} = 10

New Potential energy

U1 = kq1*q2 / 10

substituting  kq1q2 = 3U0 from 1

U1 = 3U0/10

So this is the final potential energy of this system.

Please help <br>problems 2a.,2b.,3a.,and 3b.​
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

2a) x = 32 [mil/h]; 2b) t = 0.5[h]; 3a) t = 2.5 [h]; 3b) x = 185[mil]

Explanation:

2a)

We can solve this problem by using the kinematics equation, which relates speed to time and displacement.

v=\frac{x}{t} \\v=velocity [\frac{mil}{h} ] = 32 [\frac{mil}{h}] \\t=time = 1 [h]\\x=v*t\\x=32[\frac{mil}{h} ]*1[h]\\x=32[mil}

2b)

We can solve this problem by using the kinematics equation, which relates speed to time and displacement.

v=\frac{x}{t} \\t=\frac{x}{v} \\t=\frac{420}{840}\\ t=0.5[h]

3a)

We can solve this problem by using the kinematics equation, which relates speed to time and displacement.

v=\frac{x}{t} \\t=\frac{x}{v} \\t=\frac{35}{14}\\ t=2.5[h]

3b)

We can solve this problem by using the kinematics equation, which relates speed to time and displacement.

v=\frac{x}{t} \\v=velocity [\frac{mil}{h} ] = 74 [\frac{mil}{h}] \\t=time = 2.5 [h]\\x=v*t\\x=74[\frac{mil}{h} ]*2.5[h]\\x=185[mil}

How are density and pressure related related to each other?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The pressure is the measure of force acting on a unit area. Density is the measure of how closely any given entity is packed, or it is the ratio of the mass of the entity to its volume. The relation between pressure and density is direct. Change in pressure will be reflected in a change in density
