Calculate the energy released by the electron-capture decay of 5727Co. Consider only the energy of the nuclei (ignore the energy

of the surrounding electrons). The following masses are given:
5727Co: 56.936296u
5726Fe: 56.935399u
Express your answer in millions of electron volts (1u=931.5MeV/c2) to three significant figures.
A negligible amount of this energy goes to the resulting 5726Fe atom as kinetic energy. About 90 percent of the time, after the electron-capture process, the 5726Fe nucleus emits two successive gamma-ray photons of energies 0.140MeV and 1.70 102MeV in decaying to its ground state. The electron-capture process itself emits a massless neutrino, which also carries off kinetic energy. What is the energy of the neutrino emitted in this case?
Express your answer in millions of electron volts.

Answer:

Explanation:

⁵⁷Co₂₇  + e⁻¹  =  ²⁷Fe₂₆

mass defect = 56.936296 + .00055 - 56.935399

= .001447 u

equivalent energy

= 931.5 x .001447 MeV

= 1.3479 MeV .

= 1.35 MeV

energy of gamma ray photons = .14  + .017

= .157 MeV .

Rest of the energy goes to neutrino .

energy going to neutrino .

= 1.35 - .157

= 1.193 MeV.

Answer:

Gravity.

Rocket ships.

Ball.

Basketball.

Explanation:

Gravity has to do a lot with air. It puts the planets in there area.

Rocket Ship has to do a lot with air. If i'm right, they calculate the area, weather, about the air.

A ball gets throwed in the air, which gravity comes into place.

Basketball is also a similar example to a ball.

When an automobile moves with constant speed down a highway, most of the power developed by the engine is used to compensate for
sveta [45]

Answer:

F = -4567.40 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The power developed by the engine, P = 196 hp

1 hp = 746 W

196 hp = 146157 W

Speed of the car, v = 32 m/s

Let F is the total friction force acting on the car. The product of force and velocity is called the power developed by the engine. It is given by :

P=-F\times v

F=\dfrac{-P}{v}

F=\dfrac{-146157\ W}{32\ m/s}

F = -4567.40 N

So, the total frictional force acting on the car is 4567.40 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Velocity is define as how fast an object is moving, and in what direction, it is a vector quantity, meaning velocity has both magnitude and direction. Anything goes to the left is negative, and anything goes to the right is positive.

a. Direction from east to west, given distance 11.5 meters, and time of 7.10 s

V = displacement/time  V = -11.5/7.10 S  V = -1.62 m/s  (going left)

b. Joaquin reaches his original position. Displacement is now zero.

    Velocity of the lawnmower is equal to "zero" but if we calculate for the average speed of the lawn, you just have to add the distance covered and the time it take to go back at the original position or point of origin

Explain how the information from the stimuli is communicated to the brain.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Answer:Neurons communicate through an electrochemical process. Sensory receptors interact with stimuli such as light, sound, temperature, and pain which is transformed into a code that is carried to the brain by a chain of neurons. Then systems of neurons in the brain interpret this information.
