Answer:

a. at either A or B

Explanation:

Kinetic energy may be defined as the energy of the system or an object which is due to its velocity of the object it possess.

In the context, an object having mass  is attached to spring which is vertical and the object moves up and down due to spring effect between points A and B. Now these points A and B are the extreme points after which the object bounces back.

At point A and B, the velocity of the object becomes zero and hence the kinetic energy of a body varies directly proportional to its velocity.

                  i.e. Kinetic energy $= \frac{1}{2} \text{mass} \times (\text{ velocity})^2$

What kind of radiation is emitted in the following nuclear reaction
miv72 [106K]

Beta emission is occurring in the given nuclear reaction.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

In this equation, the reactant is the Thorium atom, which is reduced to palladium. As the atomic number get decreased by one, so an electron will be emitted. This process of emission of electrons by radiation or decaying the reactant nuclei to form a new product nuclei is termed as beta emission.

So, the electrons are generally termed as beta particles while the positrons are termed as positive beta particles. So this is a kind of radioactive reactions where the reactant changes to new element by releasing an electron and thus there is a change in the atomic number of the product by one.

During a lab investigation, students added four 50 g masses to two boxes and arranged the boxes so that they were motionless on
IceJOKER [234]

When the resultant force is not equal to zero termed an unbalanced force. By procedures 4 and 5 students observe an unbalanced upward force on Box 1. Hence option 1 is right for the problem.

<h3>What is an unbalanced force?</h3>

The forces operating on a body are known as unbalanced forces when the resulting force exerted on it is not equal to zero.

Unbalanced forces acting on the body, causing it to modify its state of motion. To further grasp the nature of imbalanced forces.

<h3 />

The following reasons by which we can understand the unbalanced force caused by the box.

Due to these two reasons, books will move up.

By adding another mass to box 2. The box becomes lighter. As the box becomes lighter the gravity force acting on the box will be less due to which the box easily can move up.

By removing the two masses from box 1. Due to which other become heavier other becomes heavier pulling it down causing box 1 one to go up.

Hence by procedures 4 and 5 students observe an unbalanced upward force on Box 1. Hence option 1 is right for the problem.
