Physics
1 answer:
salantis [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Generally with successive half-life a new element is formed from the decayed nuclei:

isotope - daughter nucleus has same no. of protons (same atomic number) so                       the same element is formed in the decay

isotone - daughter nucleus has same number of neutrons so the atomic number has changed and a new element is formed (new atomic number)

isobar - daughter nucleus has same mass number - this could be an example of beta decay where the decayed nucleus has the same mass number but loses a neutron and gains a proton because of the lost electron and a new element is formed with the atomic number increases by 1

Example:

    U238 Uranium - alpha to Th234

    Th234 Thorium - 2 beta to U234     (back to U but atomic mass less by 4)

   U234 Uranium - alpha to Th230

   Th230 Thorium - alpha to Ra226

etc.   but during beta decay (electron loss) a neutron is lost and a proton gained (answer a)

6. What are 3 different evidences of evolution? How is each form used to provide evidence of evolution?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Divergent - This type of evolution often occurs when closely related species diversify to new habitats. On a large scale, divergent evolution is responsible for the creation of the current diversity of life on earth from the first living cells. On a smaller scale, it is responsible for the evolution of humans and apes from a common primate ancestor.

Convergent - Convergent evolution causes difficulties in fields of study such as comparative anatomy. Convergent evolution takes place when species of different ancestry begin to share analogous traits because of a shared environment or other selection pressure. For example, whales and fish have some similar characteristics since both had to evolve methods of moving through the same medium: water.

Parallel evolution - Parallel evolution occurs when two species evolve independently of each other, maintaining the same level of similarity. Parallel evolution usually occurs between unrelated species that do not occupy the same or similar niches in a given habitat.

A piston–cylinder assembly contains 5.0 kg of air, initially at 2.0 bar, 30 oF. The air undergoes a process to a state where the
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The work and heat transfer for this process is = 270.588 kJ

Explanation:

Take properties of air from an ideal gas table.  R = 0.287 kJ/kg-k

The Pressure-Volume relation is <em>PV</em> = <em>C</em>

<em>T = C </em> for isothermal process

Calculating for the work done in isothermal process

<em>W</em> = <em>P</em>₁<em>V</em>₁ ln[\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} }]

   = <em>mRT</em>₁ln[\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} }]      [∵<em>pV</em> = <em>mRT</em>]

   = (5) (0.287) (272.039) ln[\frac{2.0}{1.0}]

   = 270.588 kJ

Since the process is isothermal, Internal energy change is zero

Δ<em>U</em> = mc_{v}(T_{2}  - T_{1} ) = 0

From 1st law of thermodynamics

Q = Δ<em>U  </em>+ <em>W</em>

   = 0 + 270.588

   = 270.588 kJ

4. What information does the atomic number of an element give us?
bulgar [2K]

Answer: It gives us the identity of the element as well as the number of protons.

Explanation:

Because the number of protons is specific for each element, we can determine what element we are looking at just by the atomic number. For example the element with the atomic number of 1 is Hydrogen, atomic number of 2 is Helium, atomic number of 3 is Lithium and so forth.
