Radioactive "decay" means particles and stuff shoot OUT of a nucleus.
After that happens, there's less stuff in the nucleus than there was before.
So the new mass number is always less than the original mass number.
Answer:
the girl must sit 2 cm from the pivot at the opposite end of the seesaw.
Explanation:
Given;
length of the seesaw, L = 4.0 m
weight of the boy, W₁ = 400 N
position of the boy from the pivot, d₁ = 1.5 m
weight of her sister, W₂ = 300 N
First, make a sketch of this information given;
0---0.5m---------------------Δ--------------------------4m
↓<--------1.5m-------> <---------x--------->↓
400 N 300N
Apply the principle of moment about the pivot, to determine the value of x;
Sum of anticlockwise moment = sum of clockwise moment
400(1.5) = 300(x)
600 = 300x
x = 600/300
x = 2 cm
Thus, the girl must sit 2 cm from the pivot at the opposite end of the seesaw.
For velocity vs Time graphs, the displacement of the object from 2 seconds to 6 seconds is 30 m.
<h3>What is displacement?</h3>
The displacement is the shortest distance travelled by the particle. It is the vector quantity which re[presents both the magnitude and direction.
In velocity time graphs, the displacement is the area under the curve of the graph on the x axis.
'
A line starts at (0, 2) and ends at (6, 8) in v-t graph
Displacement is equal to the area of a triangle and a rectangle formed under the line.
Area = 1/2 base x height + length x breadth
Area = 1/2 x 6x 6 + 6x2
Area = 18 +12
Area = 30 m
Thus, the displacement is 30 m.

Momentum = (mass) x (speed)
If the speed is zero, then the momentum is zero.
Answer:
b. Decreases
Explanation:
The total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual resistances:
(1)
Therefore, as we add more lamps, the total resistance increases (because we add more positive tems in the sum in eq.(1).
The current in a circuit is given by Ohm's law:

where V is the voltage provided by the power source and
is the total resistance. We notice that the current, I, is inversely proportional to the total resistance: therefore, when more lamps are added to the series circuit, the total resistance increases, and therefore the current in the circuit decreases.
