Answer: 0.9264 kg
Explanation: [I'll use "cc" for cubic centimeter, instead of cm^3.
The volume is 6cm*4cm*2cm = 48 cm^3 (cc).
Density of Au is 19.3 g/cc
Mass of gold = (48 cc)*(9.3 g/cc) = 926.4 grams Au
1 kg = 1,000 g
(926.4 grams Au)*(1 kg/1,000 g) = 0.9264 kg, 0.93 kg to 2 sig figs
At gold's current price of $57,500/kg, this bar is worth $53,268. Keep it hidden from your lab partner (and instructor).
A related type of beta decay actually decreases the atomic number of the nucleus when a proton becomes a neutron. Due to charge conservation, this type of beta decay involves the release of a charged particle called a “positron” that looks and acts like an electron but has a positive charge.
Answer:
Explanation:
The law of conservation of angular momentum states that angular momentum remains constant when there is no external moment or forces applied to the system. Let assume that star can be modelled as an sphere, then:
The final angular speed is:
Answer:
A = 5.6μs
B = 178.57kHz
C = 2.8μs
Explanation:
A. It takes ¼ of the period of the circuit before the total energy is converted from electrical energy in the capacitor to magnetic energy in the inductor.
t = T/4
T = 4*t
T = 4 * 1.4 = 5.6μs
B. f = 1/T
Frequency is the inverse of period
f = 1 / 5.6*10⁻⁶
f = 178571.4286Hz
f = 178.57kHz
C. time taken for maximum energy to occur is T/2
t = 5.6 / 2 = 2.8μs
