Describe the weather phenomenon El Niño and La Niña in your own words.

1 answer:

8 0

The term El Niño refers to the large-scale ocean-atmosphere climate interaction linked to a periodic warming in sea surface temperatures across the central and east-central Equatorial Pacific. La Niña episodes represent periods of below-average sea surface temperatures across the east-central Equatorial Pacific. Global climate La Niña impacts tend to be opposite those of El Niño impacts. In the tropics, ocean temperature variations in La Niña also tend to be opposite those of El Niño. Hope this helps!

when uranium-238 decays, it emits 8alphas particles and 6 beta particles before finally becoming the stable daughter product. wh

sladkih [1.3K]

<u>Answer</u>:

When Uranium-238 decays, it emits 8 Alpha particles and 6 beta particles before finally becoming the stable daughter product. The atomic number and mass number of the daughter product is 92 and 234 respectively.

<u>Explanation</u>:

In the process of decay of Uranium-238, it emits alpha particles, and the resultant product is Thorium-234, which turns into Protactinium-234, and this Protactinium-234 undergoes the beta decay to form the Uranium-234.

As per the question, a stable daughter product is created after the emission of alpha and beta particles, this implies that Uranium-234 is a stable product after the decay of Uranium-238. Therefore, the atomic number is 92 (number of protons) and the mass number is 234 (protons+neutrons) which is also the element of the naming.

Other things being equal, the demand for natural gas will tend to _______ elastic in the short run than in the long run.

stepan [7]

The answer to this question is More elastic
A product usually become inelastic if that product does not have any subtitute to fulfill the same function.
In the long run, advancement in technologies will create a way cheaper method in producing energy (such as electric, nuclear, or solar) which will make natural gas become more elastic.
