The equator would be warmer than the poles. :)
Answer:
0 m/s²
Explanation:
Since each skater pushes the other with a force of 70 N, according to Newton's third law, there is an equal reaction and thus the other pushes back with a force of 70 N in the other direction, so we have forces of +70N and -70 N respectively. So, the net force on each skateboarder is F = + 70 N + (-70 N) = + 70 N - 70 N = 0 N.
Since force, F = ma where a = acceleration and m = mass,
a = F/m.
So, since for each skater, F = 0N,
a = 0 N/m
= 0 m/s²
So, the acceleration of each skater is 0 m/s²
In short, when light illuminates a piece of metal, the light kicks off electrons from the metal’s surface and these electrons can be detected as a change in the electric charge of the metal or as an electric current. Hence the name: photo for light and electric for the current. The explanation behind this simple phenomenon opened the door to revolutionary modern physics concepts regarding the composition of light, quantum mechanics, and what is now referred to as the “wave-particle duality” of nature. The wave-particle duality of nature is perhaps one of the greatest mysteries of our universe and a very interesting philosophical subject! Your goal in this lab is to reproduce the photoelectric effect for yourselves and to understand how it demonstrates the particle behavior of light.
In an alpha decay, an atom emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons: this means that during this kind of decay, the original atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons from its nucleus.
This also means that the atomic number Z of the element (the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus) decreases by 2 units in the process, while the mass number A (the mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons) decreases by 4 units.
