"Nuclear stability is based on (choose

Physics
1 answer:
Elodia [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

the ratio of protons to neutrons

Explanation:

Nuclear stability is based on the ratio of protons to neutrons. The nuclear space is made up of protons and neutrons that occupies the nucleus of an atom.

For every atomic nucleus, there is a specific neutron/proton ratio which ensures the stability of the nucleus.

For sodium, Na, the neutron/proton ratio for stability is 12/11.

Any nucleus with a neutron/proton combination different from its stability ratio will be unstable.

vodka [1.7K]
We are given
r = 0.6 m
n = 1.5
D = 0.6 m, R1 = 30 cm
R2 = 120 cm

We are asked to get the focal length and the distance of the focal plane from the lens

We use the formula
1 / f = ( n - 1) (1/R1 - 1/R2)
Substituting and solving for f
1/ f = (1.5 - 1) (1/30 - 1/120)
f = 80 cm

The focal length is 80 cm and the distance of the focal plane from the lesn is 80 cm - 30 cm = 50 cm.<span />

Which of Newton’s laws explains why your hands get red when you press them hard against a wall.
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Newton's third law, if i'm not mistaken.

Explanation:

Any action that occurs will have a opposite and equal action. The greater the force u apply to the wall, the greater the force the wall exerts back at you, hence why ur hands become red if u try pushing extremely hard on the wall.

A rock slides down from A to B along the inside surface of a frictionless hemispherical bowl. As the rock slides, mechanical ene
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

the normal force on the rock acts perpendicular to the bowl's surface.

Explanation:

As we know that Normal force is the reaction force of two contact surfaces which always act perpendicular to the contact surfaces

Here we know that the rock is moving inside the bowl

So Normal force on the rock must perpendicular to the surface of the bowl which always passes through the center of the bowl.

Since the rock is moving in vertical plane so it must have two acceleration

1) Tangential acceleration which will increase the magnitude of the speed along the tangential path

2) Centripetal acceleration which will change the direction of the rock

So here only correct option will be

the normal force on the rock acts perpendicular to the bowl's surface.

frozen [14]

Answer:

a) f = 4.76 10¹⁴ Hz, b) d = 2.73 10⁻⁴ m, c) θ = 6.923 10⁻³ rad

Explanation:

a) In this problem the frequency of light is asked, let's use the relationship between the speed of the wave, its wavelength and its frequency

           c = λ f

           f = c /λ

           f = \frac{3 \ 10^8}{630 \ 10^{-9}}

           f = 4.76 10¹⁴ Hz

b) slit separation (d)

the expression for the constructive interference of the double-slit experiment is

          d sin  θ = m λ

let's use trigonometry

          tan θ = y / L

          tan θ = \frac{sin \theta}{cos \theta}

in general the angles are small, so we can approximate

          tan θ = sin θ

          tan θ = y/L

we substitute

          d y / L = m λ

          d = m L λ / y

we calculate

          d = 3  1.3  630 10⁻⁹ /0.90 10⁻²

          d = 2.73 10⁻⁴ m

c) the angle

           tan θ = y / L

           θ = tan⁻¹ y / L

           θ = tan⁻¹ 0.9 10⁻² / 1.3

           θ = tan⁻¹ 6,923 10⁻³

let's find the angle in radians

           θ = 6.923 10⁻³ rad
