Answer:

lead with Z = 82 is transformed into Bismuth with Z = 73

The Po with Z = 84 becomes Pb with Z = 82

Explanation:

Beta decay occurs when a neutron emits an electron and an anti neutrino from the atomic nucleus, therefore the atomic number of the material increases by one unit.

           Pb + e + ν → Bi

lead with Z = 82 is transformed into Bismuth with Z = 73

In alpha decay, a helium nucleus is emitted from the nucleus of the atom, therefore the atomic number decreases by two units.

         Po +α → Pb

The Po with Z = 84 becomes Pb with Z = 82

Using energy considerations and assuming negligible air resistance, show that a rock thrown from a bridge 23.5 m above water wit
Elodia [21]

As stated in the statement, we will apply energy conservation to solve this problem.

From this concept we know that the kinetic energy gained is equivalent to the potential energy lost and vice versa. Mathematically said equilibrium can be expressed as

\Delta KE = \Delta PE

\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2} mv_0^2 = mgh_2-mgh_1

Where,

m = mass

v_{f,i} = initial and final velocity

g = Gravity

h = height

As the mass is tHe same and the final height is zero we have that the expression is now:

\frac{1}{2}v_f^2-\frac{1}{2} v_0^2 = gh_2

\frac{1}{2} (v_f^2-v_0^2) = gh_2

(v_f^2-v_0^2) = 2gh_2

v_f = \sqrt{2gh_2+v_0^2}

v_f = \sqrt{2(9.8)(23.5)+13.6^2}

v_f = 25.4m/s

Statement that combines energy and mass into one law
inysia [295]

Answer:

The law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation

Explanation:

It states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as the system's mass cannot change, so quantity can neither be added nor be removed.

Speed=100m/sec<br> Frequency=10 Hz<br> Wavelength=?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Wavelength = 10 m

Explanation:

Given:

Speed = 100 ms^{-1}

Frequency = 10 Hz = 10 s^{-1}

To find : Wavelength = ?

We know that the relationship between wavelength λ, frequency f and speed v is given by the equation

    v = fλ

Therefore wavelength λ = v/f

                                        = 100 ms^{-1} / 10 ms^{-1}

                                        = 10 m

Hence wavelength = 10 m
