<h3>Further explanation </h3>The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.
Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.
General formulas used in decay:
T = duration of decay
t 1/2 = half-life
N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms
Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time
half-life = t 1/2=2.6 years
T=15.6 years
No=72.5 g
<h3>Answer:</h3>
3.5 Newton
<h3>Explanation:</h3>We are given;
Mass of the ball = 140 g
Acceleration = 25 m/s²
Required to find the force;
- According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force on a body in motion and the rate of change in linear momentum are directly proportional.
- That is;
- Thus; F = ma , where F is the resultant force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.
To get the force we substitute the value of m and a in the formula;
Therefore;
F = 0.14 kg × 25 m/s²
= 3.5 N
Hence, the force needed to accelerate the ball is 3.5 N
