Answer:

a series of decays producing sequentially more stable nuclei

Explanation:

A nuclear decay chain represents a series of decays producing sequentially more stable nuclei.

For every atomic nucleus, there is a specific neutron/proton ratio which ensures the stability of the nucleus.
Any nucleus with a neutron/proton combination different from its stability ratio (i.e either too many neutrons or too many protons) will be unstable and split into one or more other nuclei with the attendant emission of small particles of matter.
The decay process is a continuous chain reaction steps.
Until stability of the nucleus is attain, it continues.

Answer: F = 102141N

Explanation: Newton's 2nd Law states that a force can change the motion of a body. The relation is given by

F = m.a

whose units are:

[F] = N

[m] = kg

[a] = m/s²

Jenny's car, at the moment of the break, had acceleration:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

$a=\frac{11}{0.14}$

a = 78.57 m/s²

Then, Force is

F = 1300*78.57

F = 102141 N

Jenny's car experienced a force of magnitude 102141N.

Give an example of hypothesis for an experiment and then identify its dependent and independent variables. Write all the steps o

e-lub [12.9K]

An example of a hypothesis for an experiment might be: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”

Step one would be to make an observation... “hey, my b-ball doesn’t have much air in it, and it isn’t bouncing ver high”

Step two is to form your hypothesis: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”

Step three is to test your hypothesis: maybe you want to drop the ball from a certain height, deflate it by some amount and then drop it from that same height again, and record how high the ball bounced each time.

Here the independent variable is how much air is in the basketball (what you want to change) and the dependent variable is how high the b-ball will bounce (what will change as a result of the independent variable)

Step four is to record all of your results and step five is to analyze that data. Does your data support your hypothesis? Why or why not?

You should only test one variable at a time because it is easier to tell why the results are how they are; you only have one cause.

Hope this helps!
