Alpha particles travel through the air they collide with oxygen and nitrogen molecules. While they collide with these molecules, they lose some energy until all energy are used up and they are absorbed. These particles can be absorbed by a sheet of paper or by the air. On the other hand, beta particles and gamma particles move faster than the alpha particles and are poor at ionizing atoms or molecules thus it takes more of the material to be able to absorb these particles.
F=MA
F=(8 kg)(9.8 m/s)
F= 78.4 N
W=FD
W=(78.4 N)(7 m)
W=548.8 J
How this helps
Answer:
Explanation:
extension in the spring = 40.4 - 31.8 = 8.6 cm = 8.6 x 10⁻² m .
kx = mg
k is spring constant , x is extension , m is mass
k x 8.6 x 10⁻² = 7.52 x 9.8
k = 856.93 N/m
= 857 x 10⁻³ KN /m
b ) Both side is pulled by force of 188 N .
Tension in spring = 188N
kx = T
856.93 x = 188
x = .219.38 m
= 21.938 cm
= 21.9 cm .
length of spring = 31.8 + 21.9
= 53.7 cm .
