Define A Gamma Ray .....---_---__☘️​

Physics
1 answer:
MrRa [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

gamma ray, or gamma radiation (symbol γ or {\displaystyle \gamma } \gamma ), is a penetrating form of electromagnetic radiation arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. It consists of the shortest wavelength electromagnetic waves and so imparts the highest photon energy. Paul Villard, a French chemist and physicist, discovered gamma radiation in 1900 while studying radiation emitted by radium. In 1903, Ernest Rutherford named this radiation gamma rays based on their relatively strong penetration of matter; in 1900 he had already named two less penetrating types of decay radiation (discovered by Henri Becquerel) alpha rays and beta rays in ascending order of penetrating power.

Nonconjugated β,γ-unsaturated ketones are in base-catalyzed equilibrium with their conjugated α,β-unsaturated isomers. The mecha
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equilibrium mechanism for the reversible acid is catalyzed by the isomerization of non conjugated β, γ- unsaturated ketones, like 3-cyclohexanone to their conjugated α, I²- unsaturated isomers.

Oxygen of the Carbonyl group in the ketone is protonated by the acid and this is followed by the abstraction of an α- hydrogen from the protonated 3-cyclo hexanone to yield ethanol

2-cyclo hexanone can be obtained by acid catalyzation of 3-cyclohexanone isomers through the formation of it's "enol".

NEWTONS SECOND LAW LAB REPORT
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly related to the net force and inversely related to its mass. Acceleration of an object depends on two things, force and mass.

Your house is 45.0 m from a powerline carrying 152 A of current. How much magnetic field does the current create at your house?
Sedaia [141]

This question involves the concepts of th magnetic field and current.

The magnetic field created by the current at the house is "6.75 x 10⁻⁷ T".

<h3>Magnetic Field</h3>

The magnetic field created by a current carrying wire can be given by the following formula:

B=\frac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}

where,

  • B = magnetic field = ?
  • \mu_o= permeabiliy of free space =4π x 10⁻⁷
  • I = current = 152 A
  • r = distance = 45 m

B=\frac{4\pi x\ 10^{-7}(152)}{2\pi(45)}

B = 6.75 x 10⁻⁷ T
