Answer:
B
Explanation:
Fermium is a synthetic element with the symbol Fm and atomic number 100. It is an actinide and the heaviest element that can be formed by neutron bombardment of lighter elements, and hence the last element that can be prepared in macroscopic quantities, although pure fermium metal has not yet been prepared.[3] A total of 19 isotopes are known, with 257Fm being the longest-lived with a half-life of 100.5 days.
It was discovered in the debris of the first hydrogen bomb explosion in 1952, and named after Enrico Fermi, one of the pioneers of nuclear physics. Its chemistry is typical for the late actinides, with a preponderance of the +3 oxidation state but also an accessible +2 oxidation state. Owing to the small amounts of produced fermium and all of its isotopes having relatively short half-lives, there are currently no uses for it outside basic scientific research.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Generally, the speed of light slows down when passing through a medium that is not a vacuum. This is not always the case, but I will be ignoring the rare/exotic exceptions. Light has a harder time traveling through solids and liquids than it does with gases.
Answer:
1.
2.
Explanation:
1. According to Newton's law of motion, the puck motion is affected by the acceleration, which is generated by the push force F.
In Newton's 2nd law: F = ma
where m is the mass of the object and a is the resulted acceleration. So in the 2nd experiment, if we double the mass, a would be reduced by half.
Since the puck start from rest, in the 1st experiment, to achieve speed of v it would take t time
Now that acceleration is halved:
You would need to push for twice amount of time
2. The distance traveled by the puck is as the following equation:
So if the acceleration is halved while maintaining the same d:
As , then . Also
So t increased by 1.14
