Ne4ueva [31]3 years ago

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Transmutation is known as the change of substance from one to the other substance by radioactive decays or nuclear reaction process.

The beta decay is the radioactive process in which proton is converted into neutron then there is decrease in proton number this beta decay is called positron emission beta plus decay.

If the neutron is changing into proton which means there is an increase in proton number these decay is called beta minus decay.

Therefore, by the above discussion it can be say that a radioactive decay or can say that nuclear reaction which result in a nuclei with greater than or lesser proton that the initial nuclei is called transmutation.

A proud new Jaguar owner drives her car at a speed of 25 m/s into a corner. The coefficients of friction between the road and th
ehidna [41]

Answer:

ac = 3.92 m/s²

Explanation:

In this case the frictional force must balance the centripetal force for the car not to skid. Therefore,

Frictional Force = Centripetal Force

where,

Frictional Force = μ(Normal Force) = μ(weight) = μmg

Centripetal Force = (m)(ac)

Therefore,

μmg = (m)(ac)

ac = μg

where,

ac = magnitude of centripetal acceleration of car = ?

μ = coefficient of friction of tires (kinetic) = 0.4

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

ac = (0.4)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>ac = 3.92 m/s²</u>

You find an unmarked blue laser on your way to physics class. When you get to class you realize you can determine the wavelength
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

wavelength \lambda = 437.27 nm

Explanation:

given data

first bright fringe = 2.96 mm

slit separation = 0.325 mm

distance D = 2.20 m

solution

we know that this is double slit experiment

so we apply here Fringe width formula that is

β = \frac{D\lambda}{d}    ....................1

\lambda is Wavelength of light and  D is Distance between screen and slit and d is slit width

so put here value and we get

\lambda = \frac{2.96*0.325*10^{-6}}{2.20}    

\lambda = 437.27 × 10^{-9} m

wavelength \lambda = 437.27 nm

José and Laurel measured the length of a stick's shadow during the day. Without knowing the length of the stick, which of their
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Option B.

Explanation:

Assuming the stick is in vertical position, its shadow depends on two factors: its length and the angle between the sun rays and the stick. When the angle is bigger, the lenght of the shadow increases, and vice versa. So, when the sun rays are parallel to the stick, the shadow may be small. Since they are nearly perpendicular to the Earth's surface at 12 o'clock, the shadow of the stick at that time should be minimal. It means that the measured shadow of 75 cm at 12:30 p.m. is almost impossible (Option B).

Elza [17]

Answer: The correct option is B (The Young's modulus of women's ACLS is typically smaller than that of men's, resulting in more stress for the same amount of strain)

Explanation:

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the important ligaments found at the knee joint which helps to stabilise the joint. It connects the femur to the tibia bone at the knee joint.

Anterior cruciate ligament tear is one of the common knee joint injury which is seen in individuals( especially females) involved in sports( example soccer and basketball which involves sudden change in direction causing the knee to rotate inwards)

ACL tear occurs through both contact and non contact mechanisms. The contact mechanism of ACL injury occurs when force is directly applied at the lateral part of the knee while in non contact mechanism,tear occurs when the tibia is externally rotated on the planted foot.

Research has proven that women are prone to have ACL tear than men when competing in similar sports. This disparity exists due to structural differences that pose as risk factors. These includes

- the female ACL size is smaller than the male.

- the ACL of female has a lower modulus if elasticity( that is, less stiff) than in males leading to greater joint mobility than in the male.. therefore the option, (The Young's modulus of women's ACLS is typically smaller than that of men's, resulting in more stress for the same amount of strain) is correct.
