The fast sports car does more damage then the slow semi truck
Answer:
Speed of the alpha particle is
Explanation:
We have given charge on alpha particle
Mass of the alpha particle
Potential difference
We have to find the speed of the alpha particle
From energy conservation we know that
If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom. Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.
If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are
(167 - 48) = 119 neutrons
in each nucleus.
Answer:
A vacuum
Explanation:
Sound waves are examples of mechanical waves. Mechanical waves are waves which are transmitted through the vibrations of the particles in a medium.
For example, sound waves in air consist of oscillations of the air particles, which vibrate back and forth (longitudinal wave) along the direction of propagation of the wave itself.
Given this definition of mechanical wave, we see that such a wave cannot propagate if there is no medium, because there are no particles that would oscillate. Therefore, among the choices given, the following one:
a vacuum
represent the only situation in which a sound wave cannot propagate through: in fact, there are no particles in a vacuum, so the oscillations cannot occur. In all other cases, instead, sound waves can propagate.
