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

Physics
1 answer:
Goryan [66]3 years ago
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.

The equation for distance is d = st. If a car has a speed of 85 m/s and travels
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

D) 10 200 m

Explanation:

Speed is known as the rate of change of distance.

speed=\frac{distance}{time}

distance = speed * time

              = 85 ms⁻¹  * 120 s

              = 10200 m

A train travels 81 kilometers in 2 hours and then 90 kilometers in two hours. wat is the average speed
oee [108]
I'm assuming your question refers to the train travels 81 km in 2 hours, as in that's the total distance covered versus the speed for those 2 hours, whereas the 90 km in 2 hours the second time around is the total distance not speed I would assume.

Now... if it was going 81 km for the first 2 hours and 90 km for the second 2 hours then the average speed would be the mean of these numbers, with that being 85.5 km. Though, I doubt that's your question.

With that said, 81 km covered by 2 hours and 90 km covered by 2 more hours. To acquire the km an hour average, we'll have to divide the distance by how many hours it traveled:
81 / 2 = 40.5
90 / 2 = 45

Meaning the train was going 40.5 km an hour for the first 2 hours and 45 km an hour for the second 2 hours. Now, to find the mean:
40.5 + 45 = 85.5 / 2 = 42.75

In-case you were wondering, the mean is the sum of all the numbers in a set, divided by the total amount of numbers in that set, take for instance:
3, 5, 9, 2, 1, 5. -> There are 6 numbers in this set.
3 + 5 + 9 + 2 + 1 + 5 = 25 -> 25 is the sum of these numbers.
25 / 6 = 4.2 (estimated) -> 4.2 is roughly the mean or average between the original set.

Anyhow, with that aside the average speed between this I would believe would be 42.75 km an hour. I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^
