Answer:    Nuclear decay rates are constant

Explanation:  Nuclear or radioactive decay occurs when energy is lost in unstable atoms, with emitting radiation. In this case, there are radioactive alpha, beta, gamma and other particles. In fact, this process presupposes the spontaneous transformation of unstable atomic nuclei. The characteristic of such processes is half-life, which represents a time period necessary for half of the amount of radioactive material to decay. It is not always predictable when a particular radioactive particle from an unstable atomic nucleus will be emitted, but <em>the decay rate over time is constant</em>.

You discover a chemical reaction that produces 1 moles of valuable propane for every 6 moles of carbon supplied.
Greeley [361]

Here we have to calculate the number of moles of valuable propane can be prepared from 1.8 moles of carbon.

From 1.8 moles of carbon 0.3 moles of propane can be prepared by the reaction.

From 6 moles of carbon (C) 1 moles of valuable propane (C₃H₈) can be prepared.

Thus from 1.8 moles of C we can obtain \frac{1}{6}×1.8 = 0.3 moles  of the propane can be prepared.

Thus the amount of propane produced in this reaction is determined.

A hockey puck moving at 28 m/s is caught by an 80.00 kg man who was at rest the man and puck moved together after the collision.
hodyreva [135]

Answer: The final velocity of both man and hokey puck will be 0.056 m/s.

Explanation: We are given 2 objects and are undergoing collision. The final velocity of both the objects is same. To calculate the final velocity, we will use the principle of conservation of momentum.

This principle states that when the objects that are colliding makes up a system, then the total momentum will remain constant if no external force is applied on it.

Sum of Initial momentum of two objects = Sum of Final momentum of the two objects

Mathematically,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2     ...(1)

where,

m_1,u_1\text{ and }v_1 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of the first object.

m_2,u_2\text{ and }v_2 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of the second object.

Here, man and hockey puck are moving together after the collision, so their final velocities will be same.

m_1=80.00kg\\m_2=0.16kg\\u_1=0m/s\\u_2=28m/s\\v_1=v_2=V=?m/s

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

80(0)+0.16(28)=(0.80+0.16)V

V=0.056m/s

The final velocity of man and hockey puck is 0.056 m/s.
