A) We balance the masses: 4(1.00728) vs 4.0015 + 2(0.00055)4.02912 vs. 4.0026This shows a "reduced mass" of 4.02912 - 4.0026 = 0.02652 amu. This is also equivalent to 0.02652/6.02E23 = 4.41E-26 g = 4.41E-29 kg.
b) Using E = mc^2, where c is the speed of light, multiplying 4.41E-29 kg by (3E8 m/s)^2 gives 3.96E-12 J of energy.
c) Since in the original equation, there is only 1 helium atom, we multiply the energy result in b) by 9.21E19 to get 3.65E8 J of energy, or 365 MJ of energy.

A baseball player friend of yours wants to determine his pitching speed. you have him stand on a ledge and throw the ball horizo

zhenek [66]

Answer:

The pitching speed of your friend is 33.20 m/s

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

Your friend throw the ball horizontally that means the vertical initial

component of velocity is zero ( $u_{y}=0$ ).

The ball is thrown from a height 4 meters above the ground.

The height $h=u_{y}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Remember: the height is negative value because its below the point of

thrown (initial position)

h = -4 m , $u_{y}=0$ and g = -9.8 m/s²(downward)

Substitute these values in the rule above

⇒ $4=0-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}$

⇒ -4 = -4.9t² (multiply both sides by -1)

⇒ 4 = 4.9t² (divide both sides by 4.9)

⇒ 0.81633 = t² (take √ for both sides)

⇒ t = 0.9035

Then the time of the ball to land on the ground is 0.9035 seconds

The range of the ball on the ground is 30 m

The range $R=u_{x}*t$ , where $u_{x}$ is the horizontal

component of the initial velocity

R = 30 meters and t = 0.9035

⇒ $30=u_{x}(0.9035)$ (divide both sides by 0.9035)

⇒ $u_{x}=33.20$ m/s

The pitching speed of your friend is 33.20 m/s

The specific heat capacity of sea water is 4100 J/Kg°C and the boiling point of 100.6 °C. (i) Calculate the energy required to r

maw [93]

Answer:

334.314 (kJ)

Explanation:

1) the formula for the required energy is: Q=c*m(Bp-t), where c - 4100 J/kg*C; m - 0.9 kg; Bp - 100.6 C; t - 10 C.

2) according to the formula above:

Q=4100*0.9*(100.6-10)=41*9*906=334314 (J).

The newly formed xenon nucleus is left in an excited state. Thus, when it decays to a state of lower energy a gamma ray is emitt

nevsk [136]

Answer:3.87*10^-4

Explanation:

What is the decrease in mass, delta mass Xe , of the xenon nucleus as a result of this deca

We have been given the wavelength of the gamma ray, find the frequency using c = freq*wavelength.

C=f*lambda

3*10^8=f*3.44*10^-12

F=0.87*10^20 hz

Then with the frequency, find the energy emitted using equation

E=hf E = freq*Plank's constant

E=.87*10^20*6.62*10^-34

E=575.94*10^(-16)

With this energy, convert into MeV from joules.

With the energy in MeV, use E=mc^2 using c^2 = 931.5 MeV/u.

Plugging and computing all necessary numbers gives you

3.87*10^-4 u.

a car headed north at 15 m/s accelerates for 4.25 s to reach a velocity of 28.3 m/s. What is the acceleration of the car?

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the car is $3.13 m/s^2$

Explanation:

In the question it is given that car initially heads north with a velocity $15 m/s$ . It then accelerates for $4.25 s$ and in the end its velocity is $28.3 m/s$ .
