The atomic number of a nucleus decreases during which nuclear reactions?

1 answer:

5 0

A related type of beta decay actually decreases the atomic number of the nucleus when a proton becomes a neutron. Due to charge conservation, this type of beta decay involves the release of a charged particle called a “positron” that looks and acts like an electron but has a positive charge.

A wave with a height of 6 would have greater amplitude than a wave with a height of 5 true or false? HELP

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

it could be either or because it doesnt just depend on the height but it also depends on the pressure but then again the question didnt ask anything about the pressure so the answer should be true

What is a transverse wave? How do the particles in the medium move in relation to the energy of the wave? Does this wave require

Pani-rosa [81]

A transverse wave is a wave where the particles in the medium move perpendicular (at right angles) to the direction of the source or its propagation (think of a snake slithering through grass) an example of a transverse wave could be a light wave. Light waves for instance don’t need a medium in order to propagate but transverse waves in general do need a medium.

On a snowy day, max (mass = 15 kg) pulls his little sister maya in a sled (combined mass = 20 kg) through the slippery snow. max

sesenic [268]

Work done by a given force is given by

$W = F.d$

here on sled two forces will do work

1. Applied force by Max

2. Frictional force due to ground

Now by force diagram of sled we can see the angle of force and displacement

work done by Max = $W_1 = Fdcos\theta$

$W_1 = 12*5cos15$

$W_1 = 57.96 J$

Now similarly work done by frictional force

$W_2 = Fdcos\theta$

$W_2 = 4*5cos180$

$W_2= -20 J$

Now total work done on sled

$W_{net}= W_1 + W2$

$W_{net} = 57.96 - 20 = 37.96 J$

A hoop (I = MR2) of mass 3 kg and radius 1.1 m is rolling at a center-of-mass speed of 11 m/s. An external force does 842 J of w

Scilla [17]

Answer:

$v_f = 20 m/s$

Explanation:

Since the hoop is rolling on the floor so its total kinetic energy is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I\omega^2$

now for pure rolling condition we will have

$v = R\omega$

also we have

$I = mR^2$

now we will have

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(mR^2)\frac{v^2}{R^2}$

$KE = mv^2$

now by work energy theorem we can say

$W = KE_f - KE_i$

$842 J = mv_f^2 - mv_i^2$

$842 = 3(v_f^2) - 3\times 11^2$

now solve for final speed

$v_f = 20 m/s$

Is induced current the same as induced voltage?

12345 [234]

Answer:Lenz's Law of Electromagnetic Induction. ... This voltage is called an induced emf as it has been induced into the conductor by a changing magnetic field due to electromagnetic induction with the negative sign in Faraday's law telling us the direction of the induced current (or polarity of the induced emf).
