What is radio activity​

Physics
2 answers:
den301095 [7]3 years ago

Explanation:

Radioactive decay is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. A material containing unstable nuclei is considered radioactive.

As its name implies, radioactivity is the act of emitting radiation spontaneously. This is done by an atomic nucleus that, for some reason, is unstable; it "wants" to give up some energy in order to shift to a more stable configuration.







hope this helps, have a great day!

A ball dropping from 70 cm took 0.6 seconds to travel a horizontal distance of 34 cm.
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

vₓ = 0.566 m / s,   W_total = 9.1 J

Explanation:

This exercise is a parabolic type movement, for the x axis where there is no acceleration

         x = v t

         vₓ = x / t

         vₓ = 0.34 / 0.6

         vₓ = 0.566 m / s

the work done is

X axis

In this axis there is no acceleration, therefore the sum of the forces is zero and since the work is the force times the distance, we conclude that the lock in this axis is zero.

        W₁ = 0

Y axis  

in this axis the force that exists is the force of gravity, that is, the weight of the body

         W₂ = Fy y

         W₂ = mg and

          W₂ = m 9.8 0.70

          W₂ = m 9.1

the work is a scalar for which we have to add the quantities obtained

          W_total = W₁ + W₂

          W_total = 0 + 9.1 m

           W_total = 9.1 m

In order to complete the calculation, the mass of the body is needed if we assume that the mass is m = 1

           W_total = 9.1 J

Which is not expecting acceleration?
Kamila [148]

1. Answer: A skydiver whose air resistance is equal to that of her weight.

A skydiver free falls under gravity but her rate of fall slows down due to drag -air resistance. when this air resistance becomes equal to her weight, the two get balanced and the body does not accelerate or decelerates.

2. Answer: Gravity

Contact forces are those which act when there is physical contact between two bodies. For example: normal force, tension and spring force.

Non-contact forces act between two bodies even when they are at a distance apart. For example: gravity, electric force, magnetic force etc.

3. Answer: The tendency of an object's motion to remain the same.

Inertia is a property of matter by virtue of which it tends to remain in its state of motion or rest. It does depend on mass of the object, more the mass, more is inertia. For example, cycle can be easily moved but we need real push hard for a car to move.

4. Answer: 254 N

The man pushes the box with 310 N force at an angle of  55 degrees to the horizontal.

we can write this in terms of horizontal (F cos \theta)and vertical component (F sin\theta).

Horizontal component: F_H=310 \times cos (55^o)= 178 N

Vertical component: F_v=310 \times sin (55^o)= 254 N

The vertical component would act towards the floor making the job more difficult to move the job.

Joe is an athlete and ran today. His exercise heart rate is 130. His THRZ is 147-179
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The correct option is;

a) Mike, he is within his target heart rate zone

Explanation:

The Target Heart Rate Zone (THRZ) is the range of the percentage of a person's maximal heart beat rate (MHR) targeted to be achieved during exercising. It is a very good way to gauge the comparative intensity of a person's exercise

Whereby, Joe's heart beat rate is below his THRZ and Mikes heart beat rate is within his THRZ, Mike is working harder.

Hence the correct option is (a) Mike, he is within his target heart rate zone.
